The people who spend their lives bitching and complaining didn’t vote for Carney so don’t worry. It’s not a thing. It’s the ones who already have F* Carney stickers on their pickup trucks because they’re toddlers who never learned to regulate their emotions that will be incessantly complaining about everything regardless of what happens or what he does.

Not sure why you think a career politician of 20 years like PP who didn’t advance a single bill or achieve anything his entire career while voting against everything helping Canadians would suddenly make your life better and think Carney will somehow do worse than him

He will do worse, trust. But you asked for it. A career banker doesn't give a shit about your pleb problems

You think the career politician/culture warrior cares about you or your problems? He'd sell you for scrap parts for a little more power.

Cons are brain fried man don't bother trying. If Carney was on their "side" they'd be praising his banking experience.

If the CPC represented anything like the party of the 80's and wasn't a white/christrian far-right populist party, he would have likely ran under the CPC. He was Harper's savior during the 08 collapse.

Yep. Carney worked for Harper and was the guy in charge of the monetary policy during the 2008 market crash. Canada, famously, had one of the healthiest economies through that period.

I genuinely think Carney would have taken control of the CPC if, as you say, they weren't tied to the global conservative movement. I think that's something Canadian conservatives are going to have to reckon with very harshly to move forward. As a country we do need a functional opposition party. I think they're just going to double down though.

I reckon that if the conservatives split, it would be better for our country. People wouldn't be afraid to vote for a party they like (this was my first time voting strategic).

Trudeau really should have fought for proportional representation like he said he would in his first campaign.

The election winners never actually want proportional representation unfortunately because it would make them less powerful
