If an election were held today, 48% of committed voters would vote Liberal, 32% Conservative, 9% NDP, 6% Bloc Québécois, 3% Green, 1% People’s Party, and 1% another party.

    Do you not understand that proportional representation distributes power so that no one party has total control?

    Its why its such a good campaign promise (from Trudeau) and why the Liberals refuse to deliver it

      Do you not understand that if the NDP has 15% of the seats, they can still be ignored if this PM wants them to be? LPC has a majority by itself right now. If you already think Carney’s too conservative, the last thing you want is him having a majority with the actual Conservative party’s help.

      To be clear, Trudeau never promised PR. HE promised election reform. The committee recommended PR and Trudeau noped out.

        This Trudeau guy sounds like a total piece of shit.

        Is he the same white supremist misogynist that threw Jody Wilson-Raybould under a train for refusing to suck-his-dick/follow-his-orders?

            What a disgusting piece of shit. I hope anyone named Trudeau is immediately rejected by Canadians if that pos family ever tries to enter politics again.

            I don’t actually believe in “tainted blood” but I’ll make an exception for anyone related to this POS called Trudeau. Fuck that entire bloodline.

            Is this POS Trudeau also a close friend of the Aga Khan cult that exploits poor people in developing countries in the name of Islam?

              Yup, that one. The guy Canada thought would be better than Harper. Not that Harper was great either but after three terms of Trudeau the CPC could have probably brought him back.

                Sounds like this Trudeau guy took our country for a ride.

                Is he also that mthrfkr that siphoned money into his mum’s account thru “WeCharity”? A charity mired in corruption and “white saviour” propaganda? Involving that Craig Kielburger POS who exploited the plight of Christian indentured slaves like Iqbal Masih in Pakistan to increase his family’s net worth without giving a penny to the victims?

                  I mean, yes he’s a corrupt politician. And yes he had a corrupt politician daddy. I challenge you to show me a politician who isn’t corrupt.

                    That’s kinda why we lean towards the lesser of two evils at the polls.

                    When you play the “not corrupt” character in public, you get more criticism.

                    Most of us know and expect Pierre PP to be a total POS. You don’t sit with that core base without being a total POS.
