betsy Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 (edited) Bernier should work on winning more folks for the PPC - BUT at the last minute, he should urge all his members and supporters to go behind O'Toole. At the last minute, Bernier must endorse O'Toole. Bernier will benefit by that gesture, if he shows to Canadians that he's putting the best interest of Canada ahead of any political ambitions.

betsy Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Looks like there's movement from all other parties. Some seem to start going to O'Toole! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canada is heading for the rocks if the Liberals are at the helm when it crashes into them they and their policies will get blamed for it to create room for at least a chance to have actual meaningful change the Liberals and a Trudeau-type figure having that football when that inevitable bad turnover comes maximizes the chances of that happening creative destruction, chaos is a ladder if there is no meaningfully better alternative that can avoid the rocks in the meantime which there isn't then Trudeau being at the helm is the best long game play hot potato being at that helm tanking and biding time ftw the LPC and Trudeau continuing to be in charge is actually worse for their long term political prospects than if O'Toole pulls off the upset that said your vote won't change who remains at the helm and Trudeau is going to win regardless of who you vote for so if you are going to vote might as well vote for the least worst option that is actually different from the main parties which are all the same even if they have no chance of winning hence why I am voting for the PPC though if I were in Quebec I'd vote for the Bloc Quebecois Vive le Quebec libre in both the above scenarios the accelerationism is still in play and you can still vote for an actual change best of both worlds, two birds with one stone voting for the LPC, CPC, NDP or GPC is basically just voting on which gang color you want the liberals running the government to wear red, blue, orange or green Edited August 28, 2021 by Yzermandius19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Street or pharmaceutical ? how is Justin O'Toole meaningfully better than Erin Trudeau? the Conservatives just stole the Liberals platform and said we're gonna execute it more effectively attacking the Liberals from the left they are literally campaigning on doubling down on Trudeau-style policy portraying themselves as simply more competent liberals plus if they win they are going to be rewarded for it incentivizing them to go even further down that road than they already are and yet I'm supposed to see O'Toole winning as some big upgrade on Trudeau winning as if the Conservatives are going to be so different, instead of just Blue Liberals why should I be that naive and stupid? and why should you?

ironstone Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 If the Conservatives happen to be still holding a lead just a few days before the election, expect to see vicious attacks by the other Parties and the media as well as calls for strategic voting again.

Some journalists have already SUBTLY floating the idea that O'Toole might be in cahoots with the protesters. O'Toole had promptly put a brake on that by strongly condemning the protest in Bolton. Lol - I wouldn't be surprised if the Bolton protesters are actually on the payroll of the Liberals.........to give Trudeau the much-needed boost by using the "victim card," of a "Trump-like mob!"

Do we hear again from those poor Afghan allies left behind, who were advised by Trudeau to "hunker down," and hide? As one desperate caller interviewed on either CTV or CBC asked: "Hide? Hide where?"

betsy Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 (edited) Do you know that Trudeau has yet to release his platform? While everyone had already gave their detailed plans, Trudeau has not. And yet, he was the one who called for this election! Isn't that odd? Looks more like Trudeau never had a plan! He underestimated his opponents - O'Toole in particular (for being an unknown to voters). Trudeau must've planned to just bs his way thru this election!

When Trudeau does release his platform I can guarantee you that it will not contain everything that he plans to do. He will most certainly implement more legislation like C-36 and C-10 that will infringe on Canadian's rights. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trudeau just proved that he has no balls to change a bad legislation. Bill C-36 was pushed into parliament by then injustice minister, Peter Mackay under strict instructions by Harper (in order to win the votes of damn religious right) in a most undemocratic disgraceful manipulative manner excluding intentionallyl the workers who were affected most, calling their own witnesses and abusing their majority to pass the most undemocratic legislation. I am not debating what is in C-36 (imported from Sweden proven a failure), as that needs another debate thread as it is endangering lives and encouraging pimps in the security guard clothing but the manner in which it was pushed through Parliament like military or religious dictatorship by a Conservative government in Canada..

I understand the "you're helping Trudeau" argument but it's meaningless at this point because there's not enough of us to matter. For now, if O'Toole wins and it looks like he might and the country continues to deteriorate like it most certainly will because he's a Trudeau lite progressive we get to say, "Don't blame me. I voted for Max." And there's the chance more people get impressed by that in the future and as things get more desperate they jump on board the Max train.

Most if not all your posts are intelligent, honest and very logical. I know we did have our differences in the past however, I am beginning to realize that in many cases you were more right (correct) than me. LOL. Thanks, but if you see how candidates are forced to resign because of a many years old facebook post or some video of a joke they told in their youth you'd realize how impossible it would be for me to ever be a candidate!

It seems that political correctness is also political suicide and this is unfortunate in a democracy. I am myself somewhat like that.
