The Conservatives have been telling the truth elsewhere? That's news to me.

Dear god 🤦🏻♀️
It gives it 2 hours to just wallow before they "oops" after the debate or something dumb like that. They're such shitheads.
I mean, to be frank, there's a pretty obvious reason why the NDP isn't spending a bunch of time busing Singh around the prairies - it's kind of a huge waste of time when the party is dead broke, in a campaign this short. He just has more money-efficient places to be.
The statement is a video calling on JT to fire two candidates who made a joke about his blackface apology.
I think this was inevitable because of how hard the CPC is falling in Quebec, those voters switched over to Bloc and the vote aint split anymore.
Premier Legault fucked it all up with his Bill 21 poison pill
It's what most Quebec-ers wanted.
Ultimately, their xenophobia overrode sensible governance.
"most"
the CAQ only won a super majority with 37% of the vote but try to pass off their shit as if the MAJORITY of the population back their shit.
the Bloc's argument about defending Quebec's interests is bullshit because they don't represent my Federalist Liberal values
Is that sentiment widespread in QB?
How many actually share and/or prioritize those same federalist liberal values?
Sound familiar?
They're running similar style campaigns.
Singh is running as a populist like Jack. He can do what Trudeau can't do because he will throw more money at it and do twice as much in half the time. Seems a bit ignorant of realpolitik. He's running against the elite and lumps the LPC and CPC in one category.
It shouldn't be surprising if some NDP voters see both parties as the same, because that's the NDP message.
In the sense that the CPC and the NDP both are self-aware of their class interests and politics as a conflict of which parts of the population get more resources, yes, they are, in an incredibly shallow rhetorical sense, similar I guess, and dislike the Liberals for similar reasons, except that everything powering that rhetoric and general distrust of the Liberals is from a literally diametrically opposed ideological place. Because of that I guess there's some limited cross-over in places but generally speaking the kind of "wow these left-wingers just sound like right-wing reactionaries" is an incredibly tired line of discourse. Literally go any deeper than the surface.
Whatever the exact combinations of numbers, if these current results are accurate and remain roughly thence for the remainder of the campaign, that seems like a recipe for a short-lived Parliament.
A teacher named Justin Trudeau in the US was just accused of sexual misconduct, so some assumed that that was where the mix-up had come from...now, who knows.
Realistically, what can Trudeau say during tonight's debate that will push things back in their favor with Quebec? All Blanchet has to do is repeat Bill 21 over and over and ask how other parties are going to cave in to whatever Quebec wants. Either way, Blanchet wins and screws everything up. Scheer's blown it so badly with Quebec that he's not going to change any hearts or minds tonight in his favor.
Quebecers fucked it up by supporting racist policy by 70%.
This is because the Bloc doesnt give a shit about the rest of Canada. If Canada does what it wants, then it wins. If it doesn't, then it says "see, this why we need to leave." This is why I am mad at anyone here who said they were happy to see the Bloc eat at CPC numbers. Anyone thinking the Bloc is useful is a useful idiot to the Bloc themselves.
Didn't PET have a minority?
Is the French debate on Radio-Canada or something? I'll google.
Yes. Winning a minority generally doesn't cause people to step down.
Seriously the bloc will underpeform on e-night because they don't have the ground game yet to win above 30 seats. They have a decent leader but that is it.
Apparently the conservative source mispoke and retracted his statement. I can't find the tweet. His name was
edit: here.
He probably got silenced by conservative brass.
Don Cherry will say something stupid about the election and hopefully make people want to vote against Scheer/Bernier
Is that PSA being sarcastic about how Trudeau lied about changing the system or is it lying outright to people to get them to NOT vote strategically?
The riding the photo was taken in is some Toronto NDP vs Lib contest so it's the former, a tongue in cheek commentary.
I wouldn't normally expect the NDP to engage in demagoguery but there you have it.
Lol, I'm pretty sure most of the electorate doesn't care anymore.
If peole think the NDP are going to usher in a new wave of politics and are above the fray from other mainstream parties then people are delusioning themselves. They do the same type of politics they accuse other parties of doing. They're just the same as other parties.
For clarity I speak of the misinformation campaign.
