What does the Canadian Future Party want to be?
I signed up in August of 2024 long before Carney. I joined because I thought the party was largely a pro military version of the NDP. It seems like most people joined because they wanted a Progressive Conservative Party. I wanted a Conservative Progressive Party. Carney is largely eating Cardy’s lunch where it comes to military spending. I wanted a party that still has progressive views on race and gender religion etc without the full blown equity card mess that the Avi Lewis NDP has become. I wanted a party that stands for human rights and has the means to defend them, peacekeeping etc. it seems the majority of the party is progress conservatives that are more focused on tax rates and financial issues. This makes me wonder why be a Cardy Futurist when you can just be a Carney Liberal? What is Cardy offering that Carney is not? Why pay the $20 to be CFP when you can be a Liberal for free? I was hoping Cardy would be right of Trudeau but left of Carney. I think Cardy has to embrace some for radical positions to different themselves from Carney. Stuff like abolishing the monarchy or a universal basic income, something big and bold.
