Damn, Carney's legendary speech still changes lives!
We should have an election then, let the electorate decide who it should be. Deciding to just join another party on a whim to give them a majority clearly just leads to further divide in the long run.
Given Carney is currently high in the polls he should just call an election, and ask the people for a full mandate, rather than this cloak and dagger nonsense.
Eh... There was like a 5% vote difference in Edmonton Riverbend, with an almost exact 50/50 left-right vote split.
In a sane electoral system, like STV, the area would have something like 2 Liberal MPs, 0-1 NDP MPs, and 2-3 Con MPs.
This isn't a great shift against local political preferences.
Bla bla blah....the windsock wants his cushy government job to last.
Wut? Dude could have just stayed in his job as a conservative MP if all he wanted was to fill a seat and collect a paycheck.
Not in the long term. The party re appointed the loser as head and has ZERO chance if Carney calls an election. He is playing the long game for that full pension.
You think this is about opinion and morality? THESE ARE POLITICIANS.
Its a good theory if he thought he would lose with the cons.
Of course he will, they kept the biggest loser in history as leader and are dropping in the polls still. This is about Jeneroux's self preservation, plus whatever $$$ and promised appointments he got from Carney - this is how Canada works. Either he gets a portfolio or a Senate appointment.
