International Canadian Election Results Start to Come Through: 'The 51st State' Edition

[Limbo Pete]

Conservatives didn't win, conservatives did. Big C = political party, little c = people with conservative views. Conservatives lost because they didn't win as many ridings, but those who want conservative policy won.

From some reason you only see it as team red or team blue. You know there's policies in government, right? If Trump all of the sudden produced UHC, higher federal min wage, became pro unions...would that not be a win for the left / dem voters?

Carney won because quebec voters backed him and some NDP voters rather right wing policies over Conservative government.





He lost his riding. It's a whacky system. A PM can actually lose their riding and still win government, even a majority. Conservatives last majority came with 39% of the popular vote, they got around 42% here.

This is even sillier. The conservatives in the Conservative party lost, but the conservatives in the Liberal party won. And this isn't the liberal coalition becoming more moderate. And the liberal voters in the liberal party... lost? Has someone told them?

Man, just go watch FROM. We aren't going to see eye to eye here.

Fair enough

 

[Unknown Pleasures]

Carney’s resume is very good. He’s also very flat personality-wise. Should make a good leader. Reminds me of Harper.

Fair. From a sheer economics perspective, Canadians were in a win-win situation IMO in that both Carney led liberals or the Conservatives are superior options to what was there with Trudeau. One can argue that one is better than the other but I feel confident that both options are better than what was had the past decade or so.

 

[Andy Capp]

Literally disgusted. Can't wait to see how high the carbon tax goes. Maybe this will be the term when the budget balances itself.

Yeah, it was so awful that poor people got back more than they put in while rich people helped pay for that... what a terrible thing...

Fuck off.

 

[ColemanwastheGOAT]

He comes across too soft.

Agreed. We need our Javier Millei.

 

[Andy Capp]

I'm sure he has, but as I said earlier, he wasn't the only one. Why did it take Carney going in to reverse the carbon tax? Why didn't JT do it himself?

Is this a serious question?

When Old Man Trump looks like he is napping in public, he is actually contemplating chess moves.

To me the funniest thing about Trump is his irrational confidence when he is saying really dumb things.
The Conservatives in Canada had this election in the bag and the Trump started saying dumb Trump stuff and turned the election in Canada back to the left. That is a skill.

The MAGA meltdown today has been fucking awesome to witness. The Conservatives party loss in Canada is Napping Trumps fault

i can just see the headlines running on pornhub now:

Entire Political Party Gets Fucked By Angry Orange Businessman

 

[HereticBD]

He won't be back after this debacle amigo.

I think you're ignoring the fact that it was the conservative's best performance since the 80's, despite losing. He's not going anywhere, and the loss had little to do with him, and more to do with the NDP collapsing. The conservatives aren't gonna trade him in for another Andrew Sheer. He's safe for now.

A wild American ventures into the fucked up parliamentary politics of Canada...

We'll see

Did Pierre win the confidence of many Canadians? He was what, 2% less in vote share.

Jagmeet was a special kind of self-serving. Took the country to a very vulnerable place where now we are likely to see a referendum of some sort in this term. The country has probably never been this divided and close to falling apart. Awesome though right?

Why the referendum? Would there be one if carney lost? So you are saying that the ones who threaten the referendum should get their way? I say fuck that. This ain’t elementary school where you can take you basketball. Carney will serve all Canadians and albertans don’t have the balls to leave.

 

[rearnakedchoke]

Damn cuck sucker....your AV speak for itself....

Did I see you in peterborough with your trump 2024 flag and fuck Trudeau flag?

Funny. The fuck Trudeau crew got what they wanted, Trudeau gone, tax got axed and they are still upset.

 

[Andy Capp]

Carney is the king of Net-Zero.. The Carbon Tax will be back in a new form in a little while

We are in trouble

lol boo hoo

I honestly think I (and a whole lot of people) would've been a better PM than Trudeau so that isn't saying much.

So united

 

[terrapin]

Trump continuing to destroy everything he touches or associates with.


You gotta love it.

 

[rearnakedchoke]

So united

Imagine casting your vote because you are worried that the people from another province will be upset.

 

[rikibobby]

Imagine casting your vote because you are worried that the people from another province will be upset.

Imagine telling yourself that Canada is more united now than 3 months ago.

 

[Khaosan]

I’m still thoroughly enjoying the post election conservative meltdowns.
