So what? What good is a “progressive” party if they prop up genocide? The Conservatives are going to take the next election precisely because of cowardice like this. Why should anyone consider voting for the NDP (or the Liberals for that matter) if their policies are the same where it matters?
This is the thing the NDP doesn’t get: principles and passion are what drive Left-leaning voters. It’s not enough to be “not Conservative”. We already have that party. We need a party that taxes the shit out of billionaires, blocks fossil fuels, and yes, stops selling weapons to genociders. Without the courage to be better, they’re just another meaningless colour on the ballot.
It’s still over a year away, that’s a lot of time when it comes to elections. Even if they call an election today because of this issue, it would backfire. The conservatives are even more zionist than the liberals. They would just be helping Israel even more.
If the NDP don’t prop up the liberals they’ll lose all their power and they’re not forecast to gain any seats in the election.
They gain nothing by forcing an election, it will actually result in a huge conservative majority that will probably last a decade.
