Interesting takes on CBC, but reality is that Polievre is shit. He lost this election because he is terrible, stupid, lazy and inept. He wasn’t ready for an election, he didn’t do his homework, he ran scared of the media, he is stupid (demonstrated by his understanding of electricity and bread). That he believed he could treat Canadians with such disdain and disrespect. He deserves the rest of his life as an insult stuck to the sole of my shoe.

Generously, Trump put him in a bind. On the one hand around a third of his supporters would be down with being the 51st state, or are at least fans of what Trump is doing. If he came out too hard against Trump, he could have bled support to the PPC,

Ironically, electoral reform would save the Conservative Party. It would probably split back into a more PC style centre-right party and a more populist Reform style party. I think an old Joe Clark style PC leader could have done better, but with ⅓ of the modern CPC Qonvoy supporting Trumpians, I don’t know that they could elect one. If they did, it would be Erin O’Toole all over again.

he ran scared of the media

He grew up at the knee of Harper. He’s only doing what he was taught.

Saw that asshole political commentating on CBC last night. Can’t we be rid of him. I thought Alberta put him in a hole.

In the great words of Total Bastard Airlines, “Bu-Bye!”

And in the great words of a Canadian celebrity that I won’t name, who asked me over coffee looking for his first job, “What’s a resume”. As in let’s resume looking for a job.

I mean, he’s very, very good at the firehose-of-soundbites style of campaigning. The dude has literally gotten elected for every year of his working life on it.

His concession had a lot of poise and savvy. He’ll never win me over but I was impressed with his cooperative tone. But I know he hasn’t changed, and I know it is not in his nature to cooperate.
