Is Canada more party-based, like the UK and NZ?

 
Yes - and unfortunately we're starting to accumulate our share of
right-wing whacko candidates, both federally and provincially.
 

Well you have had a generation of left wing whackos. Only fair.,

When somebody who expresses support for abortion rights gets tarred with
the “radical left” brush, you have to wonder who the right-wingers would
consider “moderate left”.

Seems like the concept of being “moderate”, or having a diversity of
views, doesn’t exist for them: if you are not 100% for them, then you must
be against them.
