to everyone who voted liberal or green party and is as horrified at the results as those of us who voted ndp: sometimes it’s honestly about the lesser evils, you know? nobody’s campaign was ever gonna be perfect, but now we’re all fucked together, and we can’t even know for absolute certain how fucked we are.

some of my only-partially-informed, canadian political opinions and more thoughts under the cut

i’m honestly just. i’m angry, yeah, but mostly i’m just. disappointed. i even got my mother to vote NDP, she got a bunch of other people we know, and i’m just.

even that little bit of good in the world feels fucking empty right now. what the hell is gonna happen to me? we don’t know. i live on disability! my mother lives on disability, and i live with her, so i don’t even get the full amount! we’re already fucking poor! i’m going to college in toronto, probably, and now i really regret applying. i shouldn’t have to feel that way!

i’m bisexual and autistic and open about both of those things! what the actual fuck is going to happen to me because of that? i don’t know!

because of my mom’s disabilities she spent a lot of my childhood in the hospital. enough that i remember the old hospital waiting areas better than i do my own childhood bedroom. i’m so, so fucking worried right now.

in short: if you voted for doug ford, fuck you.

The worst part of a PC win is that we don’t know what exactly is going to happen. Other parties had clear and costed platforms, and Ford had a series of last-minute, vague promises amongst a sea of attacks on the Liberals and NDP. All we have is shorty conservatives and a deep but vague sense of dread.

To Anyone Upset About Ontario Election

Now is not the time to lose hope. Sure, this election may have been a major blow to those of us who are vulnerable, but that doesn’t mean the fight ends here.

Now is the time to go out there and show extra support for our lgbt+ community, educational faculties, healthcare providers, POC, indigenous communities, those living with disabilities or with mental illness, and anyone who may be negatively effected by Ford’s actions.

When the going gets tough, remember to raise your voice and fight for what’s right! It will get better, so long as there are people who care enough to stand by and help others, we can and will make it through the next 4 years 🌸
