    This. A thousand times this.

    The same implosion in young, urban support happened in the US for the Democrats, and for the same reason: millenials and zoomers are tired of being sucked dry for the comfort of Boomer and elder-X’ers housing-based retirement fund.

    Want to fix this? Forgive student debt and actually put shovels in the ground for housing (not “accelerator funds”, not tax breaks, not low-interest loans to developers: fucking buy equipment, pay people, and build shit)

      Agreed, but let’s not forget which party (in the US) was trying to do that, and which one was actively blocking it.

      And which Canadian party would be more likely to do it here. (Hint: it ain’t the conservatives)
