Sadly its also how Canada got it's first and only woman prime minister.
Campbell became the new prime minister in June 1993 after Mulroney resigned in the wake of declining popularity. In the 1993 Canadian federal election in October of that year, the Progressive Conservatives were decimated, losing all but two seats from a previous majority, with Campbell losing her own. Her 132-day premiership is the third-shortest in Canadian history.[a]
True, though I would much rather see an NDP gov for once. The liberals make tons of progressive promises and then never deliver. The NDP strong armed them into the dental care plan else it likely would have never gone through.
Trudeau also seems to think he's not the problem with the party.. Or something. He recently said he has no plans on stepping down (or something to that effect) so I have doubts we'll see him step down.
The same could be said for NDP. I like Signh but he has failed to woo the electorate for multiple federal elections. Time to try something different. Why not try a woman? Show you are actually progressive as a party and maybe we'll see hardcore Liberal voters put their vote behind the NDP.
Trump is going to start trade wars and inflation will skyrocket again. Its all going to get fucked.
Been voting NDP for 12 years. I also donate what I can. I made one strategic vote in the first Trudeau election to make sure Harper was out. That's it.
Trump is going to put a 10% tarrif on Canadian goods. Conservatives and Liberals will likely push Trudeau to respond in kind, upping prices, all but guaranteeing a PP win because most of the people angry voting for the right now are not politically engaged.
The politically uninformed have no comprehension of cause and effect. They look up and shits expensive one day and they look at the people up at the top of various tiers of politics and blame them, or they get told they are at fault by the opposition, and even though that opposition passed the legislation when they were in power and a delayed effect is being seen, the uninformed voter takes that at face value and doesn't question it. They are uninformed and they like it that way. So they are a tool that can always be weaponised.
Nothing will stop PP coming in short of a miracle because those voters will not get informed by the next election.
To add on to that, provincial and country leaders have little direct control of prices today. Any oversight or controls have been severely hampered. They can make them worse, but any policy that may make them better will have a long lead time to take effect and will be unlikely to affect the global reality unless passed by someone like the US that has enough buying power to affect markets.
Neither Trudeau or Poliviere can solve the cost of living problem because Canada is too small a fish in a now global sea.
Most importantly always break well before a turn in snow. Never break in a turn.
Now I need to see a photo shop of a Post brand cereal named Nut Clarity, with picture of fuzzy almonds floating in milk.
I missed this, someone have the TL;DR for the clueless?
O.o this comment is from 2024?
The US continues to surprise me.
In Canada the driver is penalized if any of their passengers are not wearing a seatbelt. Refusal to wear one means getting booted from the vehicle.

Just had this one shared with me directly on signal and could not find it in here, nor could I find a source. Too good not to share though. If someone knows the meme creator I'll update this with proper credit.
So do her like Kim Campbell? I love the burn to MAGA but she deserves better than that. The first woman president of the US deserves better than that. Sadly I also agree that while unpurchased merch is possible, its also likely that Trump will just make more money off this.
