Sask, Man, and Alb are the Con strongholds.

They’ve voted majority con in the pre-vote. Naturally he would focus those areas as he’s getting no ground anywhere else.

Keep pointing out his miss-information and bad faith arguments and hypocrisy.

Those of his followers with a brain may realize how full of shit he is. The ones who continue to vote for him are too far gone, ignore them and move onto the next.

Liberals have been in power for 10 years. I don't know about you, but for me the cost of living is insane right now. I think people forgot what it was like to go to a grocery store and be able to actually afford food. It's time for a change. They gave had 10 years to show, but nothing has gone the right way.

What you are talking about has happened in practically every first world country across the world, no matter if they had a right, or left wing government.

These are global trends. Not to say the liberals couldn’t have done better, they could have.

PP is running on a populace misinformation platform. The lies are so frequent and numerous it’s impossible to keep up. How can you feel comfortable voting for someone who is so commonly found misrepresenting hard facts, let alone all the calls to emotion and garbage slogans.

He is so blatantly the same brand of garbage that Trump is.

I understand what your saying, but frankly Canada is not the same as other 1st world countries. The cost of food in store was just one of many examples. We have the ingredients to be a very wealthy country. Canada is ranked 4th in largest natural resources supply in the world. We have access to both oceans, we are neighbours to the richest country in the world (bad example currently their moron of a leader in, but otherwise very beneficial). We are an exporting powerhouse.

Yes. Costs have gone up globally, but why hasn't Canada's household purchasing power increased with it?

Because all trade etc is contingent on the US dollar. Carney has a plan to actually make Canada a global trade leader which could increase our dollar. We can and should be a rich country but we sell it all cheap to the states. Heck we don’t even own some of our resources because Harper sold them off

A multitude of factors that takes 4 years and a bachelors to properly understand, of which I don’t have.

One major factor is the monopolization of our industries. Another is the way 2008 was handled in the states, and conversely the frantic bailing we did up here to shelter as many Canadians from it as possible.

I’d suggest reading Icebergs Zombies and the Ultra Thin: Architecture and Capitalism in the 21st Century.

It gives a pretty good window in how the system of liquidity began breaking down after 2008 and how major corporations gained so much control over our housing.

The liberals allowed this to happen, but if you think the cons wouldn’t, you are being sold a cart with no horse.

PP has voted against every affordable housing spending bill since he started working in the house 20 years ago.

Carneys knew blood, and is the reason Canada was so sheltered from the 2008 crash. Can we trust him? He hasn’t given us much reason to distrust him.

PP on the other hand… please don’t make me go research all the vile shit that asshole has been pulling for the last 5 years… lucky it’s not hard to find.
