Canada is so fucked. I understand the fatigue with Justin Trudeau and the Liberals but if PP wins it truly is cutting off your nose to spite your face.

We deserve whatever comes from the next election. A person is smart. People are dumb.

There is no “fatigue” with Justin Trudeau.

People are pissed off and struggling because of the decisions that their municipal or provincial government make, and then misattribute that pain to the federal government.

Yet, they’ll vote conservative, not realizing this.

Housing affordability, healthcare, education, traffic congestion, crime, homelessness, childcare, or even snow removal ARE NOT the responsibility of the federal government.

Rather than buying “fuck Trudeau” stickers and flags to put on their oversized pickup trucks, maybe voters should learn how our government is structured.

I strongly disagree and anecdotally the sentiment plays out.

People are pissed off and struggling because of the decisions that their municipal or provincial government make, and then misattribute that pain to the federal government.

You’re also ignoring the litany of bullshit the Liberals have fumbled during their time in office as well as the multiple very public scandals around what amounts to a very publicly perceived “not giving a shit about Canadians”.

Housing affordability, healthcare, education, traffic congestion, crime, homelessness, childcare, or even snow removal ARE NOT the responsibility of the federal government.

They are everyone’s responsibility don’t try to pass the buck. The Fed’s have an obligation just as much as provincial and municipal.

As someone who leans left and has voted Liberal on multiple occasions making it out like they’re the victim is complete and utter bullshit.

I highly doubt most of the “fuck Trudeau” sticker people have no clue what he has or hasn’t done. They just hate him because he’s on the other team.

On a side note I don’t think I’ve ever seen the sticker NOT on a giant truck.
