I've never voted in my life and am not starting now.

I get not feeling aligned to anything in our current system, but I personally think it's always worth it to vote for whatever party/individual most closely agrees with your views, or is at least headed in a direction that gets closer to your wishes (even if it's not close at all).
In all fairness, no one is getting what they "want" here. It's just one big compromise.

@Alflives - huh; I've heard of spoiled ballots, but I didn't know what they were/what purpose they served. Thanks for the information--I appreciate it and will look into it more.
@Jimmy McGill - a lot of my values and views come out of my lived experiences. People are typically very critical of the way I think about politics--but very few of them, I think, can relate to the life I've had. I've been living in Canada my whole life but feel like a foreigner. People for whom the current government/parliamentary/judicial/etc structures work can never well comprehend that they don't work for some people.
@Ceres - you should know after that vigilante shot that I'm an all-or-nothing thinker. :p
