Liberal (Minority/Majority) Government 2025 - ???

I like that he shits on people that show up late to his meetings, or poorly attired.

He and Trump have at least one thing in common: a fixation on shoes

What we know about Mark Carney shows how little we know our Canadian PM
He hates brown shoes, prefers British spellings, has little patience and keeps a tight inner circle. He's no Justin Trudeau

What we know about Mark Carney shows how little we know our Canadian PM

Compared to his predecessor Justin Trudeau, Canadians know very little about their prime minister.

Survey says: ~3/4 responding say "no, thanks" to CAN military role in IRN fracas (across all parties)

Deets on how the survey was done:

The Angus Reid Institute conducted an online survey from March 11-16, 2026, among a randomized sample of 3,467 Canadian adults. Respondents are drawn from the Angus Reid Forum, a large-scale online panel developed to include Canadian residents in each of the 343 federal ridings in Canada and representative of the Canadian population by age, gender, family income, ethnic status and education. The sample was weighted to be representative of adults nationwide according to region, gender, age, household income, and education, based on the Canadian census. For comparison purposes only, a probability sample of this size would carry a margin of error of +/- 1.5 percentage points, 19 times out of 20. Discrepancies in or between totals are due to rounding. The survey was self-commissioned and paid for by ARI.

It’s funny more NDPers are ok with Canadian involvement than Liberals. It’s probably statistically equal, but still interesting.

It’s funny more NDPers are ok with Canadian involvement than Liberals. It’s probably statistically equal, but still interesting.

To be fair the poll didn't explicitly ask on which side our military should be involved...

That could explain the NDP numbers

Depends on what he says. If he goes full retard like he did on the last podcast he was on it won’t help his still sinking numbers.

Appearing is not the issue. What he says might be.

Good for Pierre!! It shouldn't make anybody angry

He's a politician who, regardless of whether people ultimately vote for him or not, genuinely cares about the country & wants to see us start living up to our potential.

Getting his message out via Rogan was just smart.

...

People who won't vote for him won't vote for him anyway.

But for those who aren't pre-committed to a party and will vote for who they feel will do more good for the country as a whole - this might help move the needle a bit

Appearing is not the issue. What he says might be.

And to be frank, talk is no longer the king-maker in this Parliament or against the current LPC.

Pierre Poilievre's words and soundbites ate away at the Trudeau Liberals, mostly because they too governed by feelings and soundbites that had little substance. It cost nothing and should have won him a majority.

The fact that PMMC and this brand of LPC has action (limited or otherwise) on most portfolios, talk is cheap. The CPC has offered very little except noise against the government, and its killing their polling numbers.

Carney actually seems to have a plan, along with a willingness to face challenges with critical thinking and flexibility; something Trudeau was incapable or unwilling to do. It seems Poilievre has a similar reluctance to changing his approach and its costing him polling percentages...along with seats.
