Everyday I read different news from both sides of the political spectrum in Canada. I see people on both sides standing in their own personal moral high grounds and talking down to the opposing side. I can't pick a side because I think for our country to truly do its best we must work together cause that's when we do our best. We don't have to agree with each other we just have to be willing to let go of our pride to try and met halfway and find solutions together because the way things are now no matter how it goes there is always someone getting the short end of the stick. We need to stop worrying about what other people think of our beliefs, our opinions, our religions and our sexualitys instead of trying to force people to do or not do or say certain things. If people diden't let these things bother them then their woulden't be a issue. I don't know I am just tired of being stuck between the two side while they try to rip each other apart while all I can do is sit there and try to talk over their fight to try and bring them closer together. I want a Canada that is good for the right the center and the left in fact in my Canada why even use those words to describe peoples beliefs?? Of course things will never be perfect and we will never get along 100% but were better of trying then what were doing now.

Unfortunately, identity politics is only becoming more and more prevalent. I think it's largely because it's easier for groups to get mad about that kind of stuff than to think of less tangible concepts like how the economy functions or how to balance costs of healthcare with quality and with wide coverage or when the military should be used and so on. I think it's just a matter of some people wanting to be angry so they latch onto anything they can. Fortunately though, it seems (to me at least) that those people who are eager to get angry are very vocal but are outnumbered by people who don't aren't passionate about being angry at everything and at everyone. It might take a while, but hopefully, society will start to realize that most people are like the people you describe: people who simply want to live and go about their days.
