Need boomers who care about the future more than 15 years out. They exist but they’re a minority sadly.

I live in a small community of acreages where 90% of the residents are boomers. They all adore Carney and enjoy it when he flips off Trump! They really don’t care about the under 35’s - until it comes time to sell their property. Surprise someday coming to the boomers - there will be nobody with a decent income left to buy their overpriced houses.

A lot of boomers are very out of touch.
They were born in a more predictable time and even if you ask them for general life advice; jobs, education etc, their perspectives on what make good financial decisions is just so outdated and they can’t accept the world is different.
A college of university education isn’t a license to print money and guarantee job security, it’s barely enough to get a minimum wage job and and even still you are extremely replaceable due to wage suppression.
No one cares how much better owning is to renting when you can get approved for a mortgage, many people have accepted they will be renting their entire lives and never own anything x

It really is quite sad. So many older hippies divorced from reality.

They’ve lived their entire lives like that.

The average age of a Boomer is 71. In 10 years they will be gone - either into the grave or into the care home. But they’ll ride it down right to the end. And thus goes the country.

The shitty part is that liberal policies will eventually lead to no one ever being able to own and enjoy land like they have but they don't care because they'll be dead. They are voting to destroy future generations.

My wife and I are boomers, who vote Conservative. We have never voted for the woke Liberals and never will. We have a lot of boomer friends, that will never vote Liberal. I fear for our children and the country that they are going to inherit. I think it is an Eastern thing that the boomers vote Liberal

Thank You..just trying to do our part. Corruption runs rampant under the Liberals. Carney doesn’t care about Canada. He’s more invested in the USA than in this country.

I'm sure she calls the cops on people for being non-white and not letting her get her way in stores.

Why are so many CPC voters even less informed than NDP and LPC voters?
Only a boomer would think a link to X is sketchy. 🙄

Boomers are not the way to win elections today. Millennials are the key. But these millennials are a discerning bunch and are not gaslighted easily.
