With the levels of dissatisfaction with Dems, does it even matter? Isn't it time to form a progressive party and splinter off?

he may not win, but if ideas gain traction others will have to respond and follow up. It's great that he makes it about ideas.
quoting Mel Brooks's Roman senate "..fuck the poor!"
While somewhat effective during POTUS45 she's useless now and listening to her is like listening to drier tumbling your clothes - amusing but ultimately useless
Keep in mind that last election their support base shrunk and NDP genuinely gained a lot. And now their Trump antics may become a liability in next elections. So hopefully they'll dip into minority territory.
But I can agree that in politics are few people with enough charisma to lead. She is one of them.
Notley political quadrant is vidtually idebtical to Carney... She ditched progressive agenda in hunt of power
Carney already axed Labour minister position... I think the message is clear. Unions should prop some other party that actually cares for unions. NDP is one of them.
Same Liberals that every single time, given the opportunity to support unions, moved against them? BAD move.
I may dislike both, maybe even a lot. But the fact that in Canadian politics there's still room for dialogue between representatives of two parties that are perceived as opposed to each othe gives me a glimmer of hope for us.
Danielle very much is behind it.
challenging? sure, but if there were ever conditions for the viable split it would be now. Progressives could splinter Democrats enough for mainstream dems take notice. What's needed is a desire to make it happen and a few capable leaders to unite folks behind the idea... AOC and Bernie may be able to pull it off but haven't indicated any desire yet
