Just Politics

In Canadian politics, there's a stunning turnaround apparently underway...
( As related to me by a Canadian friend )

The Trudeau led Liberal party had about a 1% chance of forming a majority government in the upcoming election. Trudeau resigns, the L party (LPC) chooses Mark Carney (look him up, very talented person) and now they have a 64% chance of a majority against Pierre Poilievre, the far right leader of the Conservative Party who’s rightly linked to trump

'Rightly linked' as in the political equivalent of wearing a suicide vest?😏

Ideally , Trudeau should not have been so unpopular IMO, but the conservatives spent a lot of time and money on divisive misinformation (sound familiar?)

Trudeau had been in power for 3 terms and 9 years, his time was over. He was fine in my eyes. But 3 months ago it was pretty much a lock that the conservatives would get an easy majority

As for the Conservatives Brainwashing the voters against Mark Carney:

It’ll be a tough sell. In 2008 to about 2010, Carney ran the bank of Canada and steered us completely away from the financial crisis, and it was a conservative government in power and they adored his work

I mean he went to Harvard on a hockey scholarship, ya don’t get more Canadian than that

I love his plan to make canada the strongest economy in the G7 and he's the guy who could do it

He feels that by removing intra provincial trade barriers we can basically nullify the impact of US tariffs and a big expansion of trade to ANY other country

3. My brother is Canadian
He says nothing has ever brought the country together like our idiot president.

12. Trump being a jerk has generating a wave of Canadian pride and nationalism. See the numbers!

The causes are myriad, with Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre losing two of his biggest targets – Justin Trudeau and the carbon tax – and U.S. President Donald Trump generating a wave of Canadian pride and nationalism with tariff and annexation threats. Over this three-month period Liberal support has jumped 30 points in the city of Toronto, 25 points!
