Respectfully, I’m under the impression that the Conservative party has the least impactful policy for addressing climate change, particularly for carbon emissions.

I’m also not a fan of their housing plan - I’m concerned that removing federal tax on all home purchases will benefit corporations that purchase single family homes, in comparison to only helping first-time home buyers (or even better imo, the NDP’s housing plans).

And to address crime, I’ll admit I like their claim to target off-shore tax havens, but the Conservatives have also mentioned targeting pro-Palestinian protestors with jail time (and deportation for internationals) … not to mention, I believe a lot of crime stems from economic and social instability. They haven’t even released an economic platform, but I won’t be surprised if they cut social programs while blaming Trudeau and letting the rich benefit with tax breaks. How will that make Canada safer?

To be fair, the Liberal’s economic platform disappointed me, but at least they released something. Regardless of what happens, I hope Canadians remember that we’re in this together, and that we need to start holding our politicians accountable. And more importantly, that change for change’s sake isn’t good enough - that we deserve better, not just different.

Thank you for allowing it! I tried to find an article covering this group, but as I’ve mentioned, it’s been difficult. With ongoing censorship on other platforms, I hoped the webpage as a primary source would be good enough (or even better than a poorly written article full of ads).

Of course!

They claim to follow a decentralized (“starfish”) model for organizing. The Learn More button in their About Us section links to a “GSUS Welcome Packet” hosted on Google Slides with more information:

Organizing a movement as such requires online activism but also boots on the ground listening and connecting with their community. Our chapters not only help spread awareness about GSUS but by being involved in community empowerment initiatives or organizing their own.

In order to stay true to decentralization, In order to prevent this movement from being stopped, Or a “Leader” being targeted. We seek to explode into many interconneced nodes. State to State, this interconnected system of collaboration will ensure our basic needs are met before and after the strike.

The presentation doesn’t have too much information. A lot of their organization seems to occur over regular Discord meetings, and partnering with other grassroots movements & groups.

So there’s clearly lots to be improved, but I respect that it’s something. Best of luck to you and your family. I also want change!

Absolutely fair, thank you for mentioning the privacy concerns. A reply on another crosspost brought up something similar.

There hasn’t been much protest coverage in the news I’m regularly exposed to - I hoped people might find other resources on the website useful, particularly for organizing their own demonstrations or otherwise staying informed.
