April 13 by-election results

[Barquentine]

Wow! Almost half a day and not a word from the right.

The wins are not surprises. But what is telling about them is the drop in Conservative support.

"... the Conservative candidates performed relatively poorly in all of Monday's races.

While the party captured about 30 per cent of the vote at the last general election in Scarborough-Southwest, the Conservative candidate is on pace to take roughly 18 per cent of ballots cast this time — a double digit drop-off.

The Conservative vote share has also plunged in University-Rosedale. The party's candidate has slipped from second to third place and the party's vote share is about half of what it was last time."

And you still think that Poilievre is 'The Guy'?

You realize he was the The Guy during the last election, too, right?

The drop in support is because Carny is pretending to do a lot of things to improve the economy. He's actually doing pretty much nothing, and over the next couple of years more and more people are going to realize that it's just a retread Trudeau government that is still all style over substance. Housing scarcity will increase because we're actually building FEWER, not MORE houses, inflation will continue to climb due to heavy bureacracy and rising oil prices, immigration will increase, and unemployment will climb.

Right now, they're succeeding in holding up a shield against ALL economic criticism that just says "Trump's fault!" and it's working because the media wants to keep them in power out of economic self interest and is going along with it. There's only so long that's going to fool the great unwashed public.

I was surprised about the Terrebonne result.

The federal Liberal machine is remarkable: they defeated Poilievre in Nepean.
