    its what always happens with a party named after a political philosophy. the politics of the party change but keep using the name. they should just call themself the socialist party already. and maybe later they can change it again to the communist party.

      Bruh do u even know what communism is? These guys are a centre-centre left party. Waaaaay far from socialist lmao. Had they been as left wing as you’re portraying them to be, Canada would’ve had pharmacare, dental care, socialised higher education, etc. a long time ago.

        bro did you even read what i said. its a liberal party that’s not liberal anymore only in name. they are more socialist leaning that has nothing to do with what Canada has or does not have. its like having a socialist party that does not care about the workers anymore or country that is communist but does not have socialized anything and you need to pay before you can even see a doctor. theory is different from practice.

          socialist party that does not care about the workers

          Then it is not socialist by definition?

          communist but does not have socialized anything

          Then it is not communist by definition?

              Right… Which is what makes them stop being the thing they claimed to be? And what does this have to do with the liberals being communist? You said they were communist. I explained how they were far from it. You agreed. So we cool?

                i said its a party that is no longer what its name says it is they are far left in almost everything they do they are more like European socialist parties. but you seem to think this will just make them stop to exist when i said from the very beginning they are liberal in name only and that this happens to a lot of political parties over time that are named after a political philosophy. they are bad from both sides they are not liberal for a liberal party and they are not socialist enough to implement the more left wing politics they now actually have. Justin is just very funny he is an empty suit.
