New Canadian Politics Thread

I think the left feel comfortable going back to the NDP now that an election isn't likely for a few years. But if the CONs decided to run PP again a lot of them probably come back to the Libs to ensure he doesn’t win.

Although the main motivation to flock to the Liberals was to keep PP out, I’m sure plenty of Dipper voters were also hoping that the party bottoming out hard would force change at the top of the party, starting with Singh.

And now they’ve got a leader who’s playing hard to the NDP base and doesn’t have the stink of repeated electoral failure all over him. At least, not yet. That’ll help with the polling too.

Carneys shine with left wing voters is definitely starting to come off. A bit too neolib (privatize the airports!) and dismissive of environmental concerns for them. He made a mistake in stopping the pharmacare push imo.

Pretty much a classic PC leader.


He is a socialist / communist according to Albertans.

dismissive of environmental concerns

Doesn't he have to keep the EU happy about this if he wants them to buy our stuff?

He has to ensure that we meet EU standards in the key places we need to, yeah.

This shit should honestly be grounds for revoking Hoekstra’s diplomatic credentials, designating him persona non grata and ejecting him from the country.

Completely unenforceable and totally impractical populist slop.

Wasn’t he born after his mother’s first trip to Cuba?

That's my favorite conspiracy theory ever. And maybe the only widespread one that makes legit sense!
