Younger Canadians' views of our country and its institutions getting progressively worse: Nanos survey (next generation conservative?)

So  overall people are becoming more dissatisfied with Canada, but it's far more extreme with the youth.  And it appears to be trending down.

The youth seem particularly unhappy with the 'sunny ways' and the problems that come from the quasi-socialist and social engineering policies of trudeau's liberals.

It makes you wonder if we won't see this next generation growing up a lot more conservative than previous ones.

Given all they're ever told from the 'elites' in media, arts, academia, and politics is what a shitty country Canada is, that it's practically the most racist nation in history and drenched in the blood of genocide, which it continues to practice to this day, and that every single person involved in its creation and growth was irredeemably evil on a par with Adolph Hitler it's hardly a surprise young people are feeling rather less happy about living here.

I'm pretty sure schools and universities will soon require all students to start the day by bowing their heads in shame and grief at being Canadians.

This graph doesn't seem to speak very loudly to a surge in conservative values. If it did universities would be near the bottom of the list and the RCMP near the top.

Not at all. most conservatives go to university. Not all but most. I did. So supporting university is hardly "anti conservative".

And conservatives have had problems with the RCMP since long before lefies made it popular.

What the graph clearly shows is a certain amount of disdain for our political leaders. I would rather see conservatives win elections based on sound common sense policies the majority of Canadians support rather than because of disappointment with the 'other guy'. But no, they're going to try and appease their base with policies most Canadians don't want and go into elections with one arm tied behind their back. It's time for another common sense revolution.

No, but it does seem that people are sick of Trudeau now.  

Somehow Poilievre's fans thinks that means people will like him for as long as they liked Trudeau.  We'll see I guess.

I like Poilievre the same way I liked Joe Biden two years ago.

Which is to say, anything to get rid of the fool in office and we'll see from there how it goes.

Took long enough.  That said I'm all for swapping out the political pendulum for a wrecking ball but the government will still get in so...it's hard to get excited about it.

That graph is not guaging support its about Canadians satisfaction with our institutions.

But yeah, it's great to see conservatives getting all lefty and woke about things like corporate greed and governments colluding with them... as for the RCMP, I remember right wingers getting pissed off at cops for being to soft on hippies and indians and such but what's got your ginch in a knot now?

I suppose it's natural for people who feel partisan to interpret something like this as support for their guy but why? The government will still get in regardless. Are people so desperate as to believe their guy will result in some sort of sea change in our institutions that leads to better governance? I fail to be see why.

Well you need to make up your mind then, because you're flip flopping faster than a pancake cookoff,

Your first position was that the chart doesn't show Conservative values increasing because otherwise they wouldn't consider universities something that makes canada better - and when i point out that conservatives DO like universities and WOULD say they're something that contributes to canada you claim that's not what the chart is about.

Sounds like someone watched 'easy rider' and thought it was a historical drama.  You're in the wrong country for crap like that.

The right wing never blamed the police for anything to do with any of that stuff anyway - if there was a beef to be had it was with the politicians.

Same thing it always has. Police are frequently over stepping and people on the right don't like that. They don't like it when they do it to the left either - many right wing groups spoke out against the kettling at the g7's. I  guess you forgot about that. Or just ignored it because it didn't fit your narrative.  THey were pissed at the pepperspraying for Chretien's  visit to vancouver, and were horrified at his 'pepper steak' joke. It was clear he ordered it and it was unjusified.

The difference is the left is ONLY angry when police overreach affects the left, they applaud it whne it affects the right. We were pissed about the things above but we were also pissed at the police breaking into homes to steal guns at High River.

Etc etc.

So - looks like your memory isn't just faulty, it's also a bit selective.

It's kind of a cute saying in the right context, but honestly you're ruining it. We want a gov't to get in. I assume you're not an anarchist

Reality and history. Leaders do change countries, and thats a fact. Harper made a number of positive changes. Justin has made a MASSIVE number of VERY negative changes. A new leader can easily make a bunch of positive changes to correct that.

Pretending the gov't has no influence or power or that there's never been change after a new gov't got in would just be silly.
