  5. I think I’m supposed to say something like “Please, daddy!” here. Any conservatives who are blocked by Trump being an especially terrible ‘conservative’ is a great thing for those countries and the world.

    I’m not nearly so optimistic, but a happier outcome for Canada would be a great thing. (We may be, uh, invading in two months so look out for that, guys)

  6. Yes America has now become a cautionary tale. 

  7. Oh don’t worry, the media will make a National emergency out of south Asian students ‘probably’ not paying their parking tickets in a timely fashion.

  8. That would be a notable result, considering the broad anti-incumbent government sentiment shown in democracies around the world in recent elections, regardless of party, in the Covid and post-covid era.

  9. Maybe, but remember we often said he blew it for himself in America too and here we are.

  10. Conservatives in Canada are sweating now. Pierre had the election basically handed to him, until the following happened:

    1. Trump began acting the way he did, making Canadians nervous about our own new leader.

    2. Trudeau stepped down, giving Liberals ample time to select a new leader.

    3. The only platform Pierre had was bashing Trudeau throughout the meetings. When Trump came into office, Pierre – in his usual form – didn’t provide any stance on things, unless it was popular (he’s a populist).

    4. Carney, the assumed next leader for Liberals, comes with a strong economic background, and is moderate.

    I’m not hopeful on the Liberals getting a majority after what happened, but a strong minority government will push the Conservatives further away in the next election.

    Thanks America for helping Canada through this (seriously).

  11. I think it MIGHT cost them a majority, but I’ve been saying this long before Carney was even mentioned in the news. Now with Carney in the mix, someone who is highly respected.. especially by the former PM Harper, it makes the Cons job harder.

  12. I used to think Trump costed the US Republicans the election and look at where we are now. There is no low Republicans will stoop to, solid chance they’ll still win.

  16. Pierre Pollivere has been busy stepping on his own dick with both feet while fellating Elon; and it’s only getting closer to a loss. 

    Just more evidence that no matter where you are, half of the citizens are fucking stupid. 

  18. The preview playing in the USA, doesn’t seem nearly as good as the hype! Absolute nightmare level shit show, with an Oligarch running the country, empowered by Right-Wing politicians!!?? Wtf!?

    Maybe dude isn’t going to actually just use Common Sense to magically fix all our problems. Could be the LIE in Po-lie-vre is that is the same one the Right has been feeding us for decades!

    Anyone got any of that “Trickle Down”?

  19. Jenny Byrne hasn’t fired up the money cannon yet, don’t count your chickens.

  21. Well hopefully somebody can learn from our mistakes because we sure as fuck haven’t.

  24. I hope so. Canada is a wonderful country and doesn’t deserve the horrors that are Musk and Trump.

  25. Good. Would be nice for fucking SOMEBODY to take a lesson from what we didn’t.

  26. Hopefully the rest of the world takes note and people vote accordingly.

  28. GOOD. Please for the love of god learn from us and don’t put anymore of these traitorous assholes in power.

  29. Turns out owning the libs isn’t as attractive a prospect when your entire countries existence is at stake.

  30. Listen if the election of Donald Trump makes the rest of the world start rejecting the right wing takeovers happening in their governments, then that’s actually a silver lining through this whole mess. It would be an even more helpless situation if the rest of the world fell for this bullshit.

  31. Please Canada! Please be better than us! Don’t let our disease fester there too.

  32. I figured this was going to happen. I really hope Europe is taking note. There are plenty of conservative movements there as well.

  33. One can only hope, but complacency will be the death of us.

    Get out and vote when you have the chance.

    Anyone but Poilievre, and tell anyone wavering towards him that he STILL refuses to get security clearance. What is he hiding?

  35. I hope that our mistakes becomes a wake call for nations worldwide. It can happen here and It did.

  37. We finally learned that hate politics hurts everyone.

  38. I’d rather be Canada’s 11th Province, since they can clearly run things better than we can.

  41. I fucking hope so.

    Pierre has NOTHING to offer Canadians. Dude has never worked a day in his fucking life, and all he knows is how to blame.

    I’d like an adult in charge, thanks.
