2019 Federal Election

[jeffster]

Andrew Moraga will be the NDP's candidate for Kitchener-Centre in the Federal Election this fall.  He will face incumbent Liberal MP Raj Saini.  

According to this article on the CBC site, Moraga described himself as "a person of colour from a multi-ethnic background, a proud member of the LGBTQ-plus community, an environmental advocate, a scientist, and so much more..."

I have mixed feelings about NDP leader Jagmeet Singh but Andrew Moraga is my kind of candidate.

I don't like getting involved in politics -- all 3 have great ideas, and all 3 have horrible ideas. All 3, if they were to win, would do some fine things, while all 3 will end up hurting a lot of people and get embroiled in more BS scandals, though some have better luck at going down that rabbit hole.

I will say this year, though, we have a choice between dumb, dumber, and dumberer (yeah, it's not a word). All 3 parties fit well into the dumberer category.

Now, as for a persons background -- such as their skin colour, ethnic background, memberships to things like LGBTQ+, super meaningless. No one should get a free ride for such things.
