Some Montrealers say election was 'waste of time,' others still worry about key issues
CBC
Dayna Danger, who is Indigenous, says she went into the election still concerned about First Nation communities like Shoal Lake in Manitoba, which spent almost 24 years under a boil-water advisory that was finally lifted just days ago.
"That's a huge issue for me that still hasn't really been resolved," she said.
She says she's also concerned about water privatization as it "is a resource that is meant for all of us."
Danger said, in the end, she was hoping for any party but the Conservatives, but once the dust settled, it felt like little had changed.
"I feel like it was a bit of a waste of time," said Danger, a Montreal-based Métis/Saulteaux/Polish visual artist.
She understands why the election was called, she said, "but I also feel like a lot of things are still unanswered."
Solange Hassika says she went into the election particularly concerned about race issues. She wants things to be fair and just.
