      The pro trump anti woke rhetoric is not popular. I didnt believe it since I live in Alberta and my sample group is a bunch of drooling fucking morons, but after watching him tank the last election by leaning pro trump I think they will have to ditch him and that approach if the conservatives want to win.

        I hope you’re right but with the way Carney is absolutely shitting the bed with leftists, I’m not sure we’ll have as many people leaning Liberal next time which could lead to a Conservative minority. I know a lot of people that are regretting not voting NDP even though they normally would have.

      Yeah Carney pulled out the win on anti-Trump sentiment but since then he’s put his elbows down. Way down.

      Our Liberals are as weak as the Democrats and we’re all going to pay for it.

          Because an extremist like him cannot convince enough swing voters to vote for him. I know conservatives who voted for Carney because he’s essentially a Blue Tory or what would have been a progressive conservative back in the day before the Conservative Party in Canada got taken over by the extremist Reform party. No way PeePee appeals to enough moderates. Harper and Peter McKay merged the conservatives and the reform and we haven’t had a conservative PM since Harper a decade ago. Canadians federally are mostly just liberal.

          Not to mention, as long as Doug Ford (the most powerful conservative in Canada) is in power in Ontario, federally the country will never go conservative. There is always either a conservative federal government with a liberal Ontario provincial government or a liberal federal government with a conservative Ontario provincial government. They never align.

          So no. PeePee will never be PM.

      Unless the NDP come out swinging HARD promising social services and never shutting up, he’ll definitely win.
