Ever since Carney got elected I have noticed something on facebook. Before on local groups it was mostly right wing posts and comments. Now I am seeing a lot more posts and comments from the centre/left and they are not holding back. It's good to see. Anyone else see a change?

It could be just algorithms. I've seeing those posts as well and it could be just Meta picking up on your preferences. It's a bit of an echo chamber on both sides.

At least the ads aren't outing you as poor like Dukes was.

I think Eby's financial discipline has been far worse than Horgan's though but he's not doing anything that all govt aren't generally doing regardless of party. I also don't think Eby's a particularly great Premier (not sure he's even good) but the article is a bit of a hit piece - if you're familiar with the author this is par for the course.

Provincially whether it was Social Credit, NDP or Liberals the debt/deficit has, until the last 3 years, been about the same year after year. No party was particularly worse or better than the other.
