AbsolutSurgen Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 The BIG surprise in this election is the underperformance of the NDP. Are Canadians just too racist to vote for someone who isn't white? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dualhunter Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 The Rhino Party Maxime Bernier has received more votes than the previous Rhino Party record so running a candidate with the same name seems to have paid off. Too bad the difference between first place and Bernier isn't closer, it would be hilarious if Bernier lost by fewer votes than the other Bernier gets.

CitizenVectron Posted October 22, 2019 Author Share Posted October 22, 2019 Canada is now the first western nation to complete shut down the populist right...which is fantastic. Bernier is done, I think, and the CPC's worst tendencies have also gone nowhere. Edit - having said that, I almost guarantee that people in the west are going to start talking about Wexit.

Brick Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Well I'm glad that Sheer lost. It's also hilarious that Bernier and the PPC lost so badly that Bernier lost his seat. He and his party are even worse than the Conservatives and Sheer, the racist shit bags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom631 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I dont follow Canadian politics but from what I hear around here, Trudeau is really disliked in Canada. Other than the blackface thing, why is he so disliked? and if hes so disliked, how did he get re-elected? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there were some folk from other leftist parties who strategically voted for the Liberal party according to an NPR report I quickly heard during my drive this morning.

Andrew Scheer (the leader of the other major party, the Conservatives) is just-as (or more) disliked than he is. Trudeau has had several major ethics scandals including inappropriately getting involved in an RCMP investigation of a company that had bribed the Libyan Government, and accepting gifts from foreign royalty. He is viewed by many on the right as an ineffective leader, who has multiple failings in dealing with foreign governments. He was re-elected because of the similar dislike for Scheer, and the fact that his support was more efficient than Scheer's at delivering seats in the House of Commons. IMHO, Scheer's social conservatism (anti-abortion, viewed as intolerant of LGBT community, etc.) hurt his chances in the largest province of Ontario, and made him unpalatable to many centrists there.
