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

IMHO the American mid terms may play heavier. He needs Trump to be a boogey man.

Unless the dems get full control of both chambers Trump is here to stay, he may be the boogieman, but Carney isnt playing that card, he seems more focused on results, and I think he wants results he could campaign on if he were to call an election.

MOUs dont win elections, getting people high paying jobs, and making their lives better does

Do we have comparably popular podcasts to JRE ?

Just to go back to this, he was recently on Paul Wells’ podcast on Substack. Of course it won’t show up on Apple’s rankings, and I haven’t looked up his rankings on Substack lately, but he has posted impressive numbers in the past.

While it would be tough to blame Carney for calling one given current polling, so far we’ve yet to see signals than an election is in the cards.the calling of the three byelections reinforces that.

I imagine all of the purely political types in his orbit are having aneurysms trying to convince him to do it.

Agreed. The only reason I think he has to go early to to replace the Trudeau re-treads in caucus for fresh meat. But based on recent actions, he looks like he’s focused on other things other than running an election anytime soon.

Hes probably good leader, he just picked a shity party to run for, IMHO.

If the PCs still existed, he would be a decent Red Tory. I’ll take him as a Blue Grit for the time being. I do, however, look forward to the flotsam and jetsam of Team Sunny Ways being walked off the plank…

boomers who vote for liberals have their wealth in real estate and don't want to see their values drop. Not a surprise.

Unequal Votes and Uneven Representation: Facts on Canada’s Parliament - Aristotle Foundation

The Aristotle Foundation recently commissioned Léger to survey 2,710 Canadians on their knowledge of parliamentary representation vis-à-vis their province. We also asked Canadians in every province about their thoughts on reforming the House of Commons and Senate—including having a more equal...

Not surprising. We in the west have long felt aggrieved at the lack of representation we receive in Parliament. To make things more equitable requires opening the Constitution, which no one wants to do. So we’re stuck.

As I recall, the two most underrepresented provinces are AB and ON.

Nobody talks about the latter...
