Elections For Canadians (and sure, Americans and others can chime in): Is this a good reason to vote Liberal in the upcoming Canada election?

[Stoic1]

The decision to go far left again is driven by their hatred of Trump?

I would hope they vote in their own best interests domestically and ignore Trump's rhetoric. But I watched as many cheered when the trucker protests were broken up, bank accounts frozen, and authoritarianism rose.

Good luck, Canada.

Carney felt very strongly that the trucker protest was sedition and that they should all be prosecuted including donator.

And to the damian karras fella; that paperboy saw through all of the Liberal's shady dealings and predicted the shitshow we are In now while the Liberals and the governor of the bank of Canada thought there would be deflation.

Carney will continue kneecapping our resource industry (the biggest feather in our cap economically) while spending our $ abroad in the great fight against climate change.

So it's a lose/lose situation for most Canadians?

Genuine question.

Seems like an American elections where we get to choose between a turd sandwich and rotten tampon.

I don't think either option is terrible. There are also 3 other parties to vote for, 2 of which are fringe.

Carney is the import opportunistic candidate swooping in. He has serious business chops. Knows how to make money, spend it and hide it (has that in common with Trump). Is not down to earth in any way, shape or form and will be a financially competent Trudeau/Gilbeau, but on steroids. His first move as PM was to go to Europe to warm them up for the influx of climate $ coming their way from Canada. He wants us to be European instead of North American. He stated that the US-Canada relationship is over. This is just kinda scary considering they are our only legit form of military protection.

Poilievre is in opposition and the definition of attack dog. He does not have the education or business chops, but his experience under one of the best economic tandems in Canada's history (Flaherty & Harper) has him hitting above his average. He has campaigned relentlessly for almost 3 years since his landslide victory in the leadership race. I've seen him 3 times locally in Northern Ontario. Trudeau tried coming here once in that time and needed security to get him out. He is very in-your-face with his statements, but has never been caught in a lie or scandal. Is wealthy due to the liberal-caused inflation as he has rental properties in Ottawa that doubled in value over the past 5 years. Has been an MP for 20 years and held 2 ministries including housing. Does not know when to tone it down.

I know, I am just a little biased. I just see nothing changing from the past 10 years if the liberals get in again. They are so good at telling everyone how to live, while completely fucking up the should-be richest country in the world with our resources.

Solid synopsis. Thx.

 

[Andy Capp]

It is so sad and pathetic how many people think Carney is the answer because he is stealing conservative policies. You are a blind FOOL if you actually believe they will enact these policies, this is the party that has failed on nearly every campaign promise they have ever made during the last ten years.

But conservatives who actually will enact these policies are untouchable... because conservatives bad. The disconnect between realizing these policies are what we need to fix our country but still holding onto the idea that conservative ideas are evil his hilarious.

Oh, boo hoo

A 3-party system is no more useful than a 2-party system when all you have are bad choices.

Now if I have to choose who the best person to represent me, my country and my (lack of) money right now... well, sorry. Carney is just a more experienced and qualified candidate right now than Polievre is. That should be more important than whatever party he represents, and I think you're seeing that shift right now.

There is a third choice, but let's be real here... the NDP are not getting in and the Liberals look like the least-worst option while fronting a guy coming from a legitimate finance background. If the NDP and the Tories have or had a plan going forward, what is it? What's their end game? If you have a better option or sales pitch... let's hear it.

Honestly, people should believe any politician as much as we believe that Dana is telling us MMA fans the truth.

Does anyone see ANY fight in PPeter at all? He looks like a literal choir boy. That's who I want to represent me versus the rest of the world right now? Nope. Carney looks like he should teach at Hogwarts but he still seems like he might actually hit me if he gets pissed off enough.

It's kinda funny though... and I know it has little to do with our actual election.. but... fucking Canada and the US over here acting like toddlers bickering in a world they've only been a part of for about 4 or 5 centuries. Crazy times we're in. We'd elect Krusty the Clown over Stephen Hawking because he could run the 40-yard faster.

Chinese are probably sitting over there right now thinking "Look at these clowns".

They're probably not wrong either. This shit is getting too serious.

What a horrible take on PP being weaker than Carney. Poilievre is yoked in comprison lol. Carney guaranteed got bullied his whole life.

 

[Lycandroid]

Liberals have historically oscillated between left-of-center and right-of-center governance. Carney is promising to usher in a new right of center agenda reminiscent of the Chretien-Martin era, which is landing with voters.

Poilievre and the Conservatives will try to remind Canadians of the last 10 years, but Trump's attacks on Canada are obfuscating that message. Affordability is still the number one issue for voters, but within that issue are the Trump tariffs causing an existential threat to our economy. Canadians are, so far, favoring the guy with the strong background in economics (Harvard and Oxford graduate, former head of TWO countries' national banks, former top economist of Goldman Sachs) over the guy whose only professional jobs outside of politics are being a landlord, being a newspaper delivery boy, and who worked briefly as a cell phone company call center agent. Oh, and this guy quacks the same way Trump does in many respects.

You are aware Carney was an economic advisor for Trudeau for 5 years. His economic policies have already driven us towards the edge of the cliff how could you possibly want more of that ?

Same cabinet, same government, same policies, same results. You are fooling yourself if you think you will get anything different from Carney. Why would he enact policies opposing ones he himself advocates for both in his role as economic advisor and touted in his book. He is not for the people.

This will be a very close election. Gonna be interesting

Dude has posted augmented photos showing his arms are bigger than they are. It’s almost as bad as trump posting superhero photos of himself. Pierre has got nothing in common with the common mad, but he has tricked them like trump tricked them.

 

[rikibobby]

Lol. Augmented. You guys make up some hilariously stupid shit about him.

If I think Mark Carney is the best guy to keep Trump off our backs, that may be reason enough to vote Liberal.

If p then q

 

[Andy Capp]

So, the latest is little PP wants to bring back trickle down economics. Big tax cuts will result in more investment, just wait and see.

 

[Andy Capp]

Trump realized his shit talk was getting the guy he least wanted in. Carney. He has to soften his stance so he can help Pierre. Canadians know that PP will rollover for him. Daniele smith going on Ben Shapiros show and saying how trump should hold off on tariffs so Pierre is elected is all the proof you need. She even said trump and Pierre are more aligned.

I called it quite a while back. She went down to Mar a Lago shortly after Trump was elected and returned to Alberta with his cock still in her mouth and it has been there ever since.

 

[Neck&Neck]

If you are a fan of the way Canada has gone the last decade and love mass immigration, then vote for Carney
All three major parties in Canada are utter trash
I won’t be voting for any of them

 

[MDoza]

Damage our economy. Our own politicians are already doing a good enough job damaging the economy. I fear that with Trump's input it could get REALLY bad here.

If that’s your concern, do you think joining America would benefit or harm the “Canadian economy” (if it could still be called that)? I guess just the economic outlook for Canadians?

Genuinely curious.

I think an America-Canada merger would benefit the economies of both. Canadian dollar has been trending down for decades, and China and the US are pretty aggressive in their tariffs against Canada right now. All of that would disappear if Canada joined America, in addition to the dissolution of interprovincial trade barriers.

America gaining Canada would definitely help the American economy.

Isn't there a different thread for this traitorous crap?

 

[Kassitus]

Stuck between a rock and a hard place.

NDP - trash
Liberals - meet the new guy, same as the old guy
Conservatives- Trumplite

PPC might get my vote for the lulz lol

If we break out of the American 2 party mindset we could create change the way Europeans do. If Max gets 8% of the vote Pierre will feel threatened and have to harden his stance.
