I think youβre right
Live in rural Alberta w/ many Progressive Conservative friends quietly sharing they are voting Liberal today.
Reform friends who also hear this tell me βthose PCs werenβt REAL conservatives anyways.β
If you want to win elections, thatβs probably the wrong answer.
LOL
Definitely didnβt predict this 6 months ago
Whoβs ready for a spring election?
I wonder what a post-US having any goodwill world looks like because thatβs where weβre headed.
A schoolyard bully can pick on a handful of kids at any one time, but they canβt take on the whole playground at once
Thatβs where Trump is headed
Thanks for that
ππ½ canβt wait for our two countries to be on the other side of this.
Pass around this list of Canadian products.
Trudeauβs just gave the most inspiring speech Iβve heard from a Canadian politician in a very long time.

My anti-socialism friends define socialism as collecting wealth from citizens and redistributing it among all citizens.
Fair.
Isnβt Trump collecting tariffs from Americans and redistributing it in place of income taxes socialism then?
Honest confusion.
FYI: Legislatively and Constitutionally, itβs easier for a state to join Canada than for a Province or Territory to join the USA.
This is a great thread for Canadians to read. When we remove government as the guarantor of debt, this is the kind of system you get. One of many reasons for core services in Canadian healthcare to remain publicly funded.
Fair
With all the influence Elon Musk is exerting in American politics right now, wonder at what point does he get blamed if Americaβs problems get worse

I havenβt been this interested in Canadian Politics for months.
My own reading of @cafreelandβs resignation letter is a criticism of character more than competence of the Prime Minister (though thatβs sprinkled in too).
If Canadians share that view, politicians can recover from one but not the other.
Guess which.

Wow, wasnβt on my December Bingo card

In the end, politics are about going where your message is heard
More practical to ask, "Is my message being heard in the way I'm trying to communicate it?" and "Is it moving folks to behave differently (ie - vote, donate, etc)?"
There's little point to stay in a place you're message isn't heard.
The next four years of domestic and foreign policy are going to be great for content creators. Not so clear if they will be as great for citizens.

President-elect Trumps foreign and domestic policy looks more and more like micromanaging public and private life
So much for limited government
HOLY CROW
