The reality is that the next federal election will not save us, and regardless of what you think of my writing, you certainly know this deep down. Even a Carney reprieve is unlikely to stave off an even more rabid Conservative party in the next election after this one. But if we aren’t clear-eyed about what is happening, then we sure as hell cannot see where we’re going. And to have a banker, a CEO’s man in the office of Prime Minister, it is going to bring with it a world of challenges that near certainly will pave the road for someone worse than Poilievre.

I mean yeah they (the conservatives) are afraid but Nora Loreto is a leftist activist. If anything, this is more inline with the left's anti Harris movement than the CP trying to do some damage control.

She specifically writes that it's no different between the Liberals and Conservatives, and goes further to say Carney would pave the road for someone worse than PP. That's just straight up delusional.

They need to hear about perfect, the enemy of good

Only, thankfully, in Canada we don't have a stupid two-party system that forces people to make impossible choices. In Canada such a framing would only apply to the ridings swinging between L and C. But other than that, we're a pluralistic democracy and I see no reason why left wing critiques of the center should be shouted down.

Six of one half dozen of the other.

Spreading anti-Carney bullshit helps no one but the Conservatives.
