Good. The CPC is a deeply unserious party. Their whole platform is grievances and vibes, and if elected would be driven by whatever corporate donors ask. Just as their current policies are decided by corporate donors.
And that’s not good for innovation, the last thing corporations want is competition nupping at their heals and hurting their margins
How many is that now, and how many more till the Liberals have a majority?
lifted from a ctv report:
Liberals still 3 seats shy of a majority
While three Conservative MPs have now joined the Liberal benches, the latter are no closer to a majority government than they were immediately after the April election.Former Trudeau-era cabinet minister Bill Blair resigned his seat in the House of Commons after he was appointed as Canada’s high commissioner to the United Kingdom. Former justice minister David Lametti took on the role of Canada’s ambassador to the United Nations, replacing Bob Rae, in November.
Former deputy prime minister Chrystia Freeland also announced her resignation to take on an economic adviser position for the Ukrainian government.
And, the Supreme Court last week invalidated the federal election result in the Quebec riding of Terrebonne, where Liberal MP Tatiana Auguste had won by a single vote. That riding will be headed for a byelection.
“No closer” feels like a stretch. If I’m reading that right there are four seats in play, three of which are safe Liberal ridings. And given the continued collapse of the cons, they’ve got strong odds on the fourth.
Barring an upset, they’ve got it.
Tbh it’s either this or a general election, regardless I think we’re lined up for a Liberal majority
Unfortunately, yes. I’d rather them not have a majority, gives the NDP a lot of room to manuever. But Pollievre kinda fucked that one.
