I wonder why this happened in Canada but not the UK

Part of it is that Canada was always less industrial so there was never a labour party that rose to dominate or even strongly contest national elections The other part is Canada is so massive that regionalism plays a far larger role than class even today

Many? There’s only two right-wing parties. It’s more likely that it’s the fragmentation of the electorate geographically that’s muted the tend.

I see the Greens, as usual, get more approval outside an election period than they do in the actual election.

I can't believe the right doesn't find intersectionality appealing!
