I still remember how a former Sergant at Arms dealt with an interloper...

(heh, no he didn't hit with that huge mace)

And the Liberals should be funding Bernier's campaign ads. None of that shit will work on Liberal voters but the Cons will lose the lunatic fringe and their votes will be split.

Underlining again the sheer impossibility of appealing to the critical mass of normal Canadians needed to propel you into government while also keeping the wingnuts happy and on your side.

There is no tent big enough to accommodate both of those groups.

That's Jagoff Singh's dilemma. Every rational leftist is voting Liberal. The only people voting NDP are the lunatic fringe of "gays for Hamas" types.

they kinda seem to have a budding bromance.

also, I didn't realize this till recently, but PP had never spoken to Dougie before apparently asking him for his support during the election campaign. don't think Dougie is a big PP fan.

One might interpret that as MC recognizing he has limitations with a certain type of audience.

"When"? Since literally always, like every other neofascist conservative in North America.

Ford can for sure tell PP is a phony.

Also does Ford have federal ambitions? If PP gets trounced, he’s going to be at the top of a lot of short lists for next leader.

Should hack Ford’s Duolingo account to see what he’s up to.

Jason Kenney too.

Yup. If you want to bleed PP support but you know you can't appeal to the Alberta nutters, lean into the 905/705 Conservatives instead.

Hard to say that it's not working:

Ontario

Unlike the US, the left in Canada (well. the Liberals, at least. the NDP not so much) knows how to play winning politics better than the right.

 

[lecoqsportif]

905 are pocket book voters + good schools. Keep taxes low, house value high, traffic moving. Don’t have time for weirdo conspiracy theories and culture wars.

PP is an unserious weirdo and they know it.

I mean the 905 is probably the single most important area code in determining any given federal election. has been for a while, too.
