The Conservatives have a 16-point lead. Three-quarters of the country think it’s time for a change. But Justin Trudeau is vowing to fight Pierre Poilievre in the next election.
Just to provide a counterpoint here.
I’m left leaning on most issues, and I don’t think the current parliamentary composition is a good thing at all. The Liberals have a comfortable minority, and have an explicit agreement with the NDP that props them up. This means the Liberals simply do what they were going to do anyway, and the NDP rattles their sabres about cost of living and pharmacare and dental care, to no real effect. Liberals are not effectively kept in check, and real progressive policy issues that could materially benefit Canadians aren’t being put forward.
I don’t like it, and I don’t think it serves the plurality of Canadian citizen views - we’re in a bad place and I don’t see how anyone who isn’t already a Liberal voter could love it.
