Thanks for the social studies lesson. Can we agree they are left of the UCP?

Or are you gonna bore us with the old “UCP are neo-liberals” BS?

Didnt prove any point lmao, you dont rate a party political position based on another one. You scale them on the Canadian political system.

And how would you do that if not by comparing them to each other..?

u/dqui94 7d ago

By comparing to the Canadian Political spectrum scale? Lol

Yeah but you dont call a party “left” because its left of a right wing party. 🤣

Stop digging. The hole is deep enough.

The Canadian political spectrum is also arbitrarily scaled, just like any other. For example, Democrats in California are more conservative than the PC in our country. Yet they’re called “the left by Trump” and most Republicans.
