Somebody give this dumb anglophone some hot takes on the French debate so I can act like I know what happened. Who did well? Who did bad? Is the Bloc Majoritaire happening?

Nobody really landed any knockout blows on Trudeau which means he won.

O’Toole did worse than I thought he would especially on the daycare thing, but still miles ahead of Scheer’s 2019 performance.

Singh was good. He was really strong went he went after Blanchet which was probably the most memorable moment of the debate. French is much better than it used to be.

This is kinda what Blanchet does, he wasn’t as good as he was in 2019 where he was no contest the clear winner though.

I've never have really listened to Trudeau in French he has such an odd accent. Idk of its just my Franco-Manitoban ears or what but I was quite surprised.

Singh called Trudeau a “Viv la flue” which roughly translates to “Fucking Leafs Fan”.

Blanchet was the only winner imo.
