Approximately a month ago, following Freeland’s dramatic exit from the Liberal cabinet, the Conservatives opened up a seemingly insurmountable lead of 25 points. Since then, the entire complexion of what appeared to be an inevitable Conservative majority has changed. This massive lead has virtually evaporated over a one-month period.
There’s definitely some “Biden said he’s not running again” energy in Canada right now. The Conservatives had a single page in their playbook and it’s just been made obsolete.
It did until Harris’ campaign managers told her that calling Republicans “weird” might hurt some of their older donors’ feelings, so she basically stopped going on the offensive at all. They were on a roll, then decided to “play it safe” and lost the interest of people who are tired of the party being for nothing but corporate interests.
Eh, I can’t help but be a little bit hopeful, but remember that whenever the Liberals pick their new leader, “Fuck Trudeau” will be updated into “This person is just Trudeau again but worse”. It’s just that this is not very effective until the actual person is chosen.
But as always, what we need to do doesn’t change. Get out and vote. Convince reasonable people to vote.
Like many have said Pierre had 2 things he wasn’t Trudeau and Carbon Taxes. Both were flimsy but enough for voters to latch onto.
Now Trudeau is gone and his response to a real and much bigger tax threat(Trump’s 25%) is trying to get something going with “wokeism” it’s pretty much down from here.
Especially when people hear how Trump’s cronies are fighting wokeism in the government by suspending the welfare state. People who weren’t paying attention are quickly going to get up to date on the sham it all is/was. Meanwhile PP keeps using the same words.

Hoping for a con loss or at least a minority so I can enjoy their whining and tears about how it’s just not fair and comparing about their feelings.
I’d prefer NDP but I’ll take Carney to keep a con from having a majority.
Apparently putting all your eggs into the “Fuck Trudeau” basket fails when Trudeau is no longer your opponent.

That didn’t work out for the US as much as a lot of people expected it to. Stay vigilant.

Give people a reason to stay invested.
At least Trudeau resigned early enough. There was a spike in “did Joe Biden drop out” on election day in the US.

Waiting for the Conservative promise to rename Hudson Bay
