We talked about the possibility of an election, likelyhood and risk in another thread yesterday. With party and leader numbers like these... maybe it's more likely than I thought.
It's wild to me that with as centrist as Carney's been, he's barely pulled any of the actual conservative vote to him. Really seems like we have a serious problem with growing entrenched conservatism in this country.
You can say that again. It's also not geographically uniform. It's much more entrenched in some places than others.
I know every online leftist seems to think Carney is the devil
I'd like to mildly push back on this. A lot of lefties, myself included, can hold two opinions at once - that he was/is a necessary tool to achieve the goal of keeping PP from power in the current socioeconomic context, and that he is/going to be harmful in certain ways. Accessible voter pool numbers for NDP/LPC support the hypothesis that lefties have provisionally lent their support to Carney. I have both paid to get Carney elected, and I shit on him regularly. In fact I think anyone who's voted for him should shit on him. The Canadian culture of not complaining much isn't good for us.
