Makes me think about how these same people call us Luddites for โ€œresisting technological processโ€ when the actual Luddites were against cheaply made shit that exploited underpaid workers. www.smithsonianmag.com/history/what...

Re: โ€œManitobans drowning in taxes, PCs sayโ€ (May 15) 

The Progressive Conservatives complain about rising property taxes while conveniently ignoring how they borrowed heavily to artificially lower them. In 2021 the PCs borrowed $190 million to pay for a 25 percent property tax rebate. They borrowed again in 2022 when the rebate jumped to 37.5 percent, and again in 2023 when they increased it to 50 percent. 

These PC rebates added hundreds of millions of dollars to Manitobaโ€™s provincial debt, with millions more in annual interest charges. The PC rebates also provided the largest benefits to the wealthiest owners of expensive properties. 

Although Iโ€™m not convinced the province can truly afford any property-tax reductions, the NDPโ€™s flat $1,500 Homeowners Affordability Tax Credit is at least fairer. Every homeowner receives the same credit, and lower-income seniors get an extra income-tested top-up.

The PCs created a borrow-now, benefit-the-rich, pay-later scheme. Their complaints about Manitobans "drowning" in taxes lack credibility when their own tax policies flooded the province with debt.

The @ndp.ca hold the balance of power.

@mark-carney.bsky.social says he's open to electoral reform.

And a citizens' assembly on electoral reform has been official @liberalca.bsky.social policy since their 2023 convention.

What are we waiting for? Letโ€™s end first-past-the-post now!

Happy about the big no to lil PP. Just hoping my riding (an NDP stronghold for years) will stay orange.

The transphobia thing is old news, thatโ€™s why I havenโ€™t bought any spitfire stuff in years, but I feel like a lot of people didnโ€™t hear about it when it happened. The Splice thing is new though and I gotta say, Iโ€™m not particularly surprised!

Their player is bad, their samples are bad, their prices are bad, and most of all their owners are bad and transphobic. And they're obviously not getting any better.

Don't

I cant imagine Im posting to anyone wouldnt know or has not voted yet but: Canadians, please vote today and vote strategically.

Use sites like votewell.ca to find out how to best prevent a Conservative win in your riding because I would personally really like to still have rights a year from now.
