Both parties share a two very simple objectives: consolidate power while in office and hinder and undermine the party in office while they're not.

Its fucking insane to me that people want majorities to "get things done" when political enemies swap the reigns every few years.

The people want a deck built. Liberals go buy 400 truss mounts; 2 are mounted. Conservatives take power, throw out 398 truss mounts, nail a 14' beam to a single truss mount and it pulls out of the wall. Liberals take power, cut the beam into easy to work with 4' sections, order 45 4x4 posts. Conservatives take power, posts are delivered to the house but there are too many, pay the truck to come back and return all of them, insist holes need to be be made first, buy a dozen manual post holers. Liberals take power, store post holers in shed, rent single post holer for next summer because it is cheaper. Conservatives take power, uses butane torch to clear weeds, ignites existing beams. Liberals take power, lay planks over charred beams, both break. Conservatives take power, order 80 bags of concrete for a foundation prior to rain storm. Liberals take power, holes must be dug, post holer on order, concrete bags get rained on.

Stop just doing shit and make a plan! We don't get a deck, and the only one winning is fucking Home Depot!

There will be a stalemate if there are equal numbers of Canadians are on either side of a debate reflected in equal numbers in committee. Thats GOOD for democracy because it means that issues have to be debated carefully and eventually consensus is reached with some give on both sides. What is NOT good is a majority gov that says they dont have to listen to other opinions because they have the votes to pass whatever they wish ESPECIALLY when they did not win that majority by national vote.

I much prefer a minority government at all times. Majority is dangerous to our democracy, no matter which party it is.
