Elections Trudeau' Liberals loss second Liberal stronghold, in byelection loss

[GoldenWolf87]

The era of Justin Trudeau/Canadian Liberals in Canada seems to be over almost.

With rising rent costs and food prices things for the Canadian Liberals arent looking good. For the ruling party.
Another example that economy plays an important role.
Justin Trudeau under pressure as his party loses Montreal election

Canada’s ruling Liberal party has lost a once-safe seat in Montreal, a result that is likely to put more pressure on the prime minister, Justin Trudeau, to quit.

Elections Canada said that with 100% of the votes counted in the parliamentary constituency of LaSalle-Émard-Verdun, the separatist Bloc Québécois candidate, Louis-Philippe Sauvé, had beaten the Liberal candidate, Laura Palestini, by a whisker: 28% to 27.2%. The New Democratic party (NDP) candidate received 26.1%.

Trudeau’s popularity has sagged as voters struggle with a surge in the cost of living and a housing crisis.

That's a hell of a thread title...

Probably good news for CANadians. What are the chances Trudeau calls it a day in the near future vs hanging on to the bitter end?

Good riddance, the moment can’t come soon enough.

You’ve been saying this since he won election in 2015 yet he keeps winning

Is there a term limit in Canada or can he just keep winning even when his party does poorly?

It's so fucking hilarious to be angry about surging cost of living and then vote NDP, the only party that will make that even worse.

Lefties never learn.

Trudeau won in 2020 because all of us were in a Pandemic era.

The Liberals just lost a major safe seat this summer
Recently for the first time Liberals had lost a major safe seat in Toronto.

Trudeau's Liberals losing their safe seat in Montreal to the Bloc is exactly a bit embarrassing.

he just keep winning even when his party does poorly?

Not when the economy is doing poorly.

Winning while losing the last two popular votes. FPTP and the wide gap of population density in election riding has made it so liberal enclaves can carry them in elections. But these two byelections are demonstrating those enclaves are turning on them. The one in Toronto they have held onto for over 30 years and won by nearly an average of 20points. The one from yesterday in Montreal had their vote margin cut in half from 2021. These aren't cracks, these are shatters. Considering he's trailing the conservatives by 20+ points in agg polling, these two major losses and still is saying he's not going to step down is absolutely wild. He's headed for the Wynn Effect in ontario where the Liberal leader was so hated, the party lost official status in Canada's largest province and hasn't recovered since.

There's no term limits on prime ministers.

The chances are zero and none. He is the biggest narcissist in politics and will burn his whole party down to keep riding the high of being Canada's PM until the election is forced. Total idiot, with a government of idiots standing right behind him (NDP and Bloc included).

Lefties never learn.

It was pretty close (1,200 votes) and conservatives increased their vote share by 16%. Not everyone shows up for by-elections. They do for general elections.

Pierre is going to expose Jagmeet with motions that Jagmeet professes to support, but will go against to prevent the big bad conservatives (and canadians) from gaining power over their country.

Gonna be a fun bunch of months until the election is forced, because no way the NDP and Liberals want one now with PP spanking them both in the polls

It's a fucking circus. I'll probably vote Rhinoceros this time!

No term limits so he’s trying to follow in the footsteps of his father and stay in power until his death.

Jagmeet isn't even guaranteed of winning his own seat. Which is why he won't pull a vote of no confidence to force an earlier election. Jagmeet wants his pension secured for time served.

Even in the liberal stronghold of Ontario, many want Trudeau gone. The costs and the continual terrible economic policies are killing Canadians.

 

[Err]

It’s gonna be funny when the Bloc is the official opposition.

It would be hilarious if Trudeau makes a coalition government with separatists. It is very possible.

Wouldn't say it's possible as it would alienate the vast majority of Canadians and force the NDP to join the Conservatives in a non confidence vote. No party has entertained a coalition with the Bloc as 1. You would have to cave to separatist/ cultural nationalists demands and 2. Form a coalition with a party 70% of the country can't vote for.

The fact that the bloc is even a thing on the national level shows how much of a joke canada is. The fact that they are 3rd largest party is evidence of much of cuck nation canada is

 

[Err]

It’s likely imo. I have a feeling the NDP will join the conservatives in a no confidence motion knowing that the Bloc won’t support it, that way they can completely distance themselves from this disaster and try and chip away at the liberal ridings. If the NDP continues to de facto prop up the liberals they’re going to bleed voters and might lose official party status by the next election. The Bloc are the real winners in this situation, they stand to lose nothing and gain everything by keeping Trudeau in power.

The NDP have minimal fundraising $. They can't afford an election right now.
