Don’t let polls lull you. Make your vote count! It’s not over until the election results are called.
I’m in PP’s riding. We’re doing our part to turf him.
Vote! Vote! Vote! Vote! Get out there and vote when the time comes! You can even register right at the polling station if you need to.
The election hasn’t been called yet, but yes. 😂 The first hurdle is the leadership vote. The registration for voting in it has already closed.
Please do vote and let’s make sure that we keep Canada clean - the poo goes in the loo and so does the PP
💯
If you had told me 2 months ago that Liberals would have a lead in the polls I would have laughed at you.
I watched the interview with him on The Rest is Politics today and I heard something interesting from him. They asked him to picture himself in 2028 as the PM of Canada and say what he sees around him. He said a few things and one of them was “I see we have full employment.” I’m not going to explain at length what that means but it’s a very specific economic term that is in contradiction with neoclassical/neoliberal economic thought and free market fundamentalism.
Carney is very much a Keynesian, so that’s totally on brand for him. People hear the word “economist” and think we’d have Bain Capital as PM, but he’s really quite left-wing.
I see it’s an hour long, is it worth the watch?
If you haven’t seen many interviews with him, I think so. If you’ve watched other interviews, perhaps less so. In general if you’re interested, give it a look, bail if bored or keep hearing things you know. For me this bit I mentioned was the only surprising thing I heard and it came all the way at the end.
I haven’t so I threw it on in the background, it’s been good to hear him talk. He seems pretty logical + sensible, doesn’t dance around things like a politican.

Yeah. Also he gives an authentic impression which typically bodes well for electability.
I’m looking forward to voting Carney in the leadership race. 👍🇨🇦
Same. I was initially considering Gould first, Carney second since it’s ranked ballot, but not anymore.
I like her a lot as well and suspect she will have a prominent place in the next government.
