Reply to comment by ChalupaCabre in Toronto MP Han Dong quits Liberal caucus amid Chinese interference allegations by chemicologist

That's how it's supposed to work but many people DO vote based on the party leader. If people voted locally the makeup of government would likely be different.

Well I would agree Liberals got some juice out the gates when they took Trudeau as leader.. and when Trudeau said they would legalize cannabis.

I dunno what they have now, except for a platform that they aren’t the crazy conservatives. And I would agree.

If we eliminated first past the post voting and used a system like ranked choice, we definitely would get a different government. For the time I think we will keep having a Liberal lead minority government.. the only way to stop it is with a majority conservative government and the Conservative don’t exactly seem to be getting away from crazy land with the shit they say and do.
