Why do you people continue to call it progressive. Progressive implies it's better when proven time and time again, socialism is a complete failure and leaves behind a society far worse off.

These woke legislatures are learning that Hispanic culture is the wrong place to peddle their garbage

Incroyable!!

CBC refuses to show Canadians massive up rising in Prague against EU, NATO and their government. One has to wonder how long they can hold out, spin it?

Chileans have voted for freedom instead of a far-left constitution.

Looking at what Trudeau has done... I don't blame them

Well done Chileans!!

Good. Maybe there is hope and some (or all) of the wisdom shown by Chileans will seep up to North America.

We're still waiting on those 200,000 mail-in votes to be counted from the federal election.

I wonder how much money did the US channeled to the Chilean Right to campaign against a more socialist constitution... There are lots of minerals the US wants and giving rights to Native people would be a problem.

Common sense prevails.

The politics of fear reigns supreme worldwide

Too woke!!!

If only Canada would be a sensible as Chile, and reject woke extremist left. There might be a future for young folks then. But continuing radical governance has already doomed them to a much less prosperous future than previous generations. Needlessly.

:(

Oh thank God

the current constitution is a market-friendly document that favours the private sector over the state in aspects like education, pensions and health care. It also makes no reference to the country's Indigenous population, which makes up almost 13 per cent of the population.

If you try to democratically usher in Socialist/communist ideals, it will always fail. They forgot to censor opinions and limit free speech and debate beforehand. That's where this failed.

My Chilean wife voted today, and is very happy with the result.

Chileans are smarter than us.

Good, they avoided becoming another Venezuela

Better luck next time, commies.

Chileans resoundingly reject new progressive constitutionChileans resoundingly rejected a new constitution to replace a charter imposed by the dictatorship of Gen. Augusto Pinochet 41 years ago, dealing a stinging setback to President Gabriel Boric who argued the document would have ushered in a progressive era. Bummer. They didn't want to go down the same path Venezuela did? Good, progressive in the political term is societal cancer. Here in Canada we need to reject Trudeau and his goons, and kick them the hell out who’s hell bent on turning this country into the next Venezuela.
