Controlled Opposition: The NDP leadership is underway — and the party is limiting signatures from 'cis' men

[DesRicardo]

This is what controlled opposition looks like. This Party has a huge opening a blind man can see, but they are still up to their non-progressive practices.

To me, it's obvious they don't want to eat into the Liberal votes, even if that means risking the future of the party.

The NDP leadership is underway — and the party is limiting signatures from 'cis' men

The party did not immediately respond when asked how officials would reasonably verify if members identified as cisgender men.

And second, what is their issue with 'cis' men. Trust me, any man aligned with the NDP is not a threat.

National Post is american media.
Don't listen to them.

 

[Valcazar]

The actual requirements are written very oddly and it is unclear to me how they are supposed to be interpreted.

 

[DesRicardo]

It's controlled opposition. Creating such a hurdle, especially when your party is in the dumpster makes no sense.

 

[southpaw]

"cis" men meaning "real" men, men with dicks

"cis" men meaning men who admit they are men. All men have dicks, at the start anyway.

 

[southpaw]

I thought that 'trans" men have vaginas and 'trans" women have dicks

Yup. So not admitting what they really are.

 

[Frankfooter]

Its quite entertaining watching everyone try to figure out what cis actually means.

 

[Frankfooter]

cis means real trans means fake

only the the woke "people: kind don't know what a woman and a man are

that's not entertaining, that's sad

Wrong, that's just funny.

It's going to be interesting to see what they do once they've picked a new leader. If they keep pushing gay race communism like they have the past decade or so they'll continue to sink into political irrelevance. I still think their only real play at this point is to just merge with the Liberals, frankly I'm rather surprised the liberals aren't leaning hard into that, they only need a few more seats to secure a majority

Depends, if Carney implements Austerity as he says he will then the NDP will have a major platform.

I wasn't laughing at the austerity everybody with a brain knows is coming I was laughing at the implication that will make the NDP relevant for the first time since Layton

Nobody elected the libs on austerity.

Yeah no shit they elected him because he'd raise his elbows and instead they're getting austerity but you know what the best part about it is? The fucking retards will vote for them again and they'll very likely win. While the NDP are stuck in a political corner of their own making and actually think that their best way out is sticking a fork in an electrical outlet

If there party only has 7 seats, what real option do they have?

Just let them thumb wrestle for it.

You can't make the NDP up
