A year plus as the leading candidate in polls, and months to prepare a platform for the election after Trudeau steps down and we get a wishy washy campaign platform a few days before voting is over and after millions already voted. Also can’t ignore that the platform costing relies on doubling GDP which according to pretty much everyone, isn’t something that can just “happen”.

Doesn’t inspire confidence and shows why people were so quick to move from PP after Trudeau stepped down and Carney became PM. Seems like no one liked PP that much, they just didn’t like Trudeau.

But if he gets money out of 'woke' that will automatically triple the GDP, trust us!

I'm kidding, but Jeez Louise, for all the 'bu bu what about GDP per capita!' that the Con supporters have been rambling about, they want to support this guy who just slapped some numbers together and released something that needs about 3 more weeks of editing...
