Sadly, I live in a riding in which the majority would vote for a haystack if it wore a PC button, so switching my vote wouldn't do any good. At least it means I don't have to compromise.
We'll see how the byelections shake out. And what happens if the Libs get a new leader. Like their MAGA mentors the CPC, as well as the UCP, have structured their campaigning (and they are always in campaign mode) on a particular person being leader. It might be time for Trudeau to step out of the constraints of being Canada's Prime Minister and get into an arena where he could exercise serious influence more directly. Singh seems to have drunk the same kool aid as Poilievre as he stated he is "running for prime minister". Poilievre is ridiculous with his "sellout Singh" taunt. A 45 year old man calling another 45 year old man names. It's worthy of a drunk rigger, not someone who is hungry to be Prime Minister. I haven't forgotten it was Jack Layton and the NDP who brought down the Liberal minority government which gave us 9 years of Harper Cons. But the stakes are even higher now that all the Canadian conservative parties are essentially MAGA North.
