    Great but let’s not get complacent. The only Poll that matters is the election

      This is by far the most important thing to remember. Don’t forget to vote. Hell, since you’re reading this, you’ve probably already decided who you’re voting for (Not PP, but for the only guy who stands a chance to beating him). Go vote early so you don’t forget. Or register for mail-in votes.

      And don’t forget to encourage those you know to vote. Hell, go together to vote as a group. The more people vote, the more likely PP will lose, because almost all the seats he has a decent chance of winning come from the rural prairies, and they live so far apart, it’s impossible for them to coordinate in person.

    LOL. Looks like even the people of Carleton are put off by PP and his kowtowing to Trump and ultra-conservative faux populism.

      Trust me, there are a LOT of pp diehards in the rural areas. But there is a lot of new construction happening in the riding that is changing the dynamic.

        Turns out that the intensification of the suburb sprawl for the Ottawa valley is going to come back to bite them in the ass.

        Suburbs tend to be more conservative than cities. I suppose they can also be more progressive than rural ridings though?

      I’m not a native anglophone even though I’m pretty fluent. But I don’t know how to pronounce “kowtow”.

      Does it sound like “cow-cow” or more like “cow-toe”?

    Honestly I think the Conservative Party should be dismantled - at this point their nothing but a waste of space. Their taking seats that could be taken by people who will do a much better job than any of the current conservative members. We need people who are passionate about Canada with who will work for the people. The conservatives are traitors

    I don’t hugely trust Ekos, but this would be hilarious if it happened.

    Frankly I think we need to send a message to politicians that we need substance. We can’t survive off attacks, or slogans, or vitriol, or attack dogs.

    The reason Carney is doing so well is in part because he’s giving something to vote for. Polievre only provides things to vote against.
