    As a Canadian, it’s like I’m watching an alternate reality develop, and I’m afraid it’s going to infect us…

        When. He’s the worst party leader Canada has had in decades, and very popular it seems. People will vote for him because they’re frustrated with the effects of their Conservative provincial governments and too ignorant to understand this.

      It will. With how Pierre Poilievre is doing in the polls, I wouldn’t be surprised.

      Trudeau is a wet rag and Singh suffers from an image problem. Quebec is going to vote for the Bloc and the Parti québécois and a referendum on Quebec Independence will probably be triggered.

        This is one reason why the “leave the country” people are so off. There’s a notable rise in far right wing nuts all over the world. Even if Poilievre loses, you’ll still have a very large contingent of people who thought he had good ideas.

        No, running away isn’t going to solve it. I do understand that some people are in danger, and leaving might be their best option. For the rest of us, no.
