I hate strategic voting and I’m holding my nose and voting for Carney anyway to keep Polievre out. I wish the NDP wasn’t such a mess. But I don’t want Canada to get into bed with the orange rapist.

    I get it - strategic voting feels necessary under our current system. But this cycle of “holding our noses” every election is exactly what FPTP is designed to create.

    With proportional representation, you could vote for who you actually believe in without fear of “wasting” your vote. Every vote would count toward representation - no more impossible choices.

    If you’re tired of this broken cycle, check out ways to grow the proportional representation movement so we can build a democracy where strategic voting becomes obsolete.
