We were complicit in letting people bully trudeau out of office. But honestly how could any Canadian with half a brain not see that the liberals led by Mark Carney is the best choice for us in this Turbulent time. I could never see the Conservatives showcasing their values like this, it just screams Canada

    Between Carney and Poilievre there is no contest. However, it is important to say that from what we’ve seen, Carney’s policies will not fix the deep problems facing the country. There is nothing there about reducing wealth inequality via taxing the rich, nothing about non-market housing, nothing about ending the oil-and-car economy, nothing about Land Back. And yea, I know those are left wing policies and he’s a centrist but that’s exactly my point, what we actually need is ecosocialism.

      Pretty much this. The best thing about him is that he isn’t Poilievre.

      But Carney appears to be a relatively right-leaning Liberal. Shrinking the federal government is fine, I guess; cutting taxes for might be boutique tax cuts for the rich - I didn’t see specifics; his housing policy seems to rely heavily on the private sector, which is pretty similar to everyone else’s (and doesn’t seem great, tbh).
