It is most likely a false-flag, because the criticisms in the document all are clearly insane, and each question makes the actual Conservative policies appear saner in comparison.
Decentralise everything!

I think FPTP keeps fringe or unpopular ideas out. Assuming its a 2-party dominated system, it will keep extremists out only if the extremists are fringe.
This is a shallow analysis.
No, we don’t use machines in Canada, nor is there a plan to introduce them.
I had to double check myself, but seems the statement was correct. Elections Canada says that (see Voting Technology section in the link):
Elections Canada does not use automatic ballot-counting machines to count ballots or tabulate results in Canadian federal elections.
There are no plans to introduce Internet voting or ballot-counting technology for federal elections.
At the surface it seems to be, since people are switching from american products to Canadian ones. But, the supply chain is more complex.
Sounds like a bait. I hope Carney doesn’t fall for it.
Not sure if thats what you meant, but yeah, cars used to be made “stronger”, until it was realised that they are more fatal that way. Theres a reason most modern cars crumble up quickly in an accident, and that is because the crumbling absorbs energy from the impact, helping the vehicle slow down and stop without damaging the passenger. If the car didnt crumble, the energy has to go somewhere else - this could go to the passenger, flinging them through their window.
Not sure where I stand on this issue, but I am leaning towards that it shouldn’t have been removed for being “offensive”.
Anyway, on a slightly related topic, hijab is a pretty complex issue. It is both a symbol of religious freedom, and of religious oppression. In many parts of the world, women are forced to wear it, and in some other parts of the world, women are forbidden from wearing it. Even in places that have more freedom wrt this issue, women might be forced by their families to wear it.
Yep, it was really perfect for the liberals. I wonder if choosing Carney was a calculated choice to benefit from the turmoil in the US, or if it is just ridiculously good luck.
