Canada

Charlie Angus the other day: “Donald Trump, I’m going to say this once—and I might never say it again—I want to thank you. I want to thank you for bringing Canada together.”

“It took a malignant narcissistic slug like you to make us put aside all our differences—all our regional fights, all our concerns with one another—and realize we actually had to stand up for something better: standing up for the rule of law, for democracy, for decency.”

Angus went on to hit out at Trump and his “incel gang” who are terrified of diversity, equity and inclusion, adding, “Your DEI nightmare? Well, we are your DEI nightmare, Donald. Canada will always be a country of diversity. We will always be a country of equity. We will always be a country of inclusion. And we will defend the rule of law.”

For many years places like the Fraser Insistute would point to the USA larger economy and more competitive salaries as why Canada should be copying their policies.

As usual the progressive arguments needed context like higher proverty rates or underlying social issues which to people that can barely make it past a article title is a largely lost cause. But in 2025 we can pretty just point to the flaming turd that is America and unless people are a special flavor of nuts they just kinda nod.

But he has a new slogan! Axe the inflation tax! It’s genius! It’s so good that this slogan will get people to vote for him, I know it

Pierre Poilievre, is the ghost of Justin Trudeau in the room with us?

Watching the debates proved without a doubt that Carney is the only adult in the room. He was playing moderator during the debate consistently telling the other leaders to be quiet while the others were speaking and didn't interrupt others when they were speaking.

Carney is now the adult in the room

Justin was the baby-sitter, but Dad's home now?

wait until you learn about the other parties

You were perfectly ready to cut off your nose to spite your face and that is the big problem with Canadian politics that will never be solved with electoral reform alone.

I'd have agreed, until it became obvious what a Trump-fellator Polievre had become. I think if Harris had won down south, even Carney couldn't have saved the Liberals. Charlie Angus was not wrong, the Liberals have Trump to thank if they win.

I would have voted for Pierre, if it was him vs Trudeau

I despise the Conservative 'platform' (finger-pointing and trickle-down) so much, I think I'd vote for a box of dead skunks over Milhouse or elTool or whoever is running their show this week.

I have a preferred party, and it's not hard to see which that is. But, if it comes to it, I'm ABC.

I bristled when I read that too. I like to think the writer is calling out how we are making a decision contradictory to our survival on this planet to avoid a PP government, which would cause even greater suffering. I have so much frustration with our species on our inability to address the climate crisis
