A Guide to Canada's Political Parties

The next federal election is approaching fast and many Canadians are still confused on who to vote for.

The Breach has put together a video to help explain each party’s platform and history to help guide Canadian voters.

Could really do without the stupid unnecessary comments that make this video much longer.

As the 4th person to watch this video, I'm glad to have contributed to the relative virality.

The Canadians may not have a more optimal political party setup, however, it's much much better than the highly Divisive Two-Party System in the United States...sorry, I meant the DIVIDED States.

I feel that for Canada to improve even more though, they need to implement the Ranked-Choice Voting System for all their Elections. Ranked-Choice is the Voting System that has a been shown to promote togetherness in politics the most.

Yup, this video hits the lowlights and explains the sinking stomach feeling of listening to any of the leaders talk, or tweet.

If you're taking requests, do electoral reform!

Central Committee on Twitch watched this on stream with 2k viewers! Love this content. Keep it up

How come y'all didn't include the Communist Party of Canada?

Also, 100%. Grassroots organizations and social movements are where we should be focusing. Thank you for emphasizing that!

Love the BTS jokes. I'm an American trying to understand something that my short attention span is really struggling with. 😂

As a PPC voter, formerly Tory, though I've voted NDP in the past. This video was actually pretty entertaining. Keep it up.

And you didn't even mention "Canadian foreign policy". (in quotes becasue there isn't one - it's someone else's .)

You forgot th Bloc Quebec and next time bring facts not accusations maybe

[ianweniger]

Where can I get a transcript of this video?

Bruh. The most important thing you can do is vote. The difference between conservatives and ndp is unthinkable. This logic is so deeply flawed. If you do anything in ur life, make it voting

I'm sorry to write a negative comment on a video with only a handful of views, but I was quite excited for the breach when you started, and while you're output has had some good work, the angsty millenial nihilism in video just sucks. The fact is that voting is really important. If the NDP only approve of 1/3 new pipelines, then voting them in gets you 1/3 as many pipelines, which is a good thing. You know who might be inclined to listen to left wing activists and organisers? Left wing and center left parties. You know who doesn't give a **** about what we're whining about? Right wing parties. Overall, *the* major determinant over what happens on almost every political issue is which party is in control of government. Singh, Paul and even Trudeau all have policies people who your video targets can feel good about, even the conservatives deciding to moderate on climate and social issues should change people's calculus (i.e. perhaps it's worth risking Tory leadership to vote for your prefered party???). I don't mind that The Breach has a specific point of view but it is counter-productive to emphasise engagement with electoral system as a moral comprimising, futile act. If the issues you care about require government action, then the composition of that government matters.
