With Carney's Liberals now competing with the Conservatives for right-of-centre voters in the next election, the left-of-centre voters are open to the NDP to grab.
100% agree, I’ve been writing letters about electoral reform because it is absolutely a thing that, if they pressure and push it through, could use having done it as a way to campaign to a population sick of empty promises. If you can get shit done without being the party in power (ahem, Tommy Douglas), what could you get done in power?
I’m not sure if you’re in BC, but if anyone else reading this is, the provincial government is accepting input for their electoral reform committee, closing tomorrow (Jul 25): https://consultation-portal.leg.bc.ca/consultations/43. (I know its not federal but we gotta start somewhere)

Dang! Unfortunately I’m not but that’s great info, I hope a lot of people are giving input!
Nationalized healthcare also didn’t start federally ;)
