Idk enough about Canadian politics to comment on the NDP or the greens. I'd love to do some reading, I imagine the same exact patterns would play out there as they've played out everywhere, which is the people in power are not people for the people.

I don't want "full blown communism", idk really what that even means. I'm positive you don't either because of how you're talking about it. What I do want is for you to own your business (or your share of the business if you work with others), the building you do your work in (or your share, etc), the tools you use to do your work, the profit of your work, the home you live in, and the right to do with your profits and your stuff as you see fit (as long as it doesn't endanger anyone else). I also want the money you pay towards your community (taxes) to benefit you and your neighbors far more than it benefits the people who are necessary to administer those community benefits (small, efficient government) or the people who would attempt to corrupt those administers. That means univeral healthcare, that means robust public transit, that means free education and quality libraries and protected parks. That means renewable energy and strong regulatory bodies. That means a no more than sufficient sized military and strong trade bonds. That means easy immigration and emigration, so governments are held accountable via immigration.

I don't care what you call that, but you have to recognize that as the best future for all people, the most cost efficient future, and the one that would do the most objectively good and good based on any major religion I think.
