    It’s moved a further right since the NDP/LPC supply and confidence agreement. The carbon tax became politically toxic. There’s no serious discussion of climate action - Alberta and Trump have seen to that. We aren’t talking about any kind of wealth redistribution or tax increases on the wealthy (remember the capital gains reform?). There’s no discussion of serious spending to directly alleviate the housing or healthcare crisis.

      Taxed to work, taxed to live, and nothing really changes. We fund the system just to run in circles, classic hamster wheel economics.
