I was just about to type "I don't think Canada is dumb enough to elect Trump-lite" then my mom posted a pro-O'Leary for PM meme on Facebook which my whole family unironically liked so I don't know what the gently caress.

Lol. Don't kid yourself, we are more than dumb enough to elect "Trump-lite", even two years into the complete collapse of the American state we will be dumb enough to elect a Trump-lite. And it won't just be rurals or whatever other urbanite boogeyman. Toronto elected Rob Ford. Toronto would have elected Rob Ford twice if he hadn't dropped out. We have direct evidence that one in four people will consistently support crass racist unqualified ineffectual morons so long as they're flying the right banner. That isn't about to change.

Its weird although I see how its still on the books, I cant find any examples of a conviction based on the charge of anal intercourse in the past 15 years or so. The last time I really it see it referenced were two cases in 2000 and 2001 where the conviction was appealed and dropped and another where it was found to be unconstitutional.

I've got the best plan for electoral reform, you won't believe how good it is it's going to be so much better than the current voting system. 2015 will be the last election under first past the post, the next election will be the greatest election, make canada great again.

A bombastic pitchman and reality TV star with no political experience pushing a populist conservative "platform*", being elected on nothing more than soundbites and name recognition. Does that help? *Platform may be completely undefined beyond "You'll have jobs and money again and we'll gently caress over those folks you don't like" If you want to find a way to stretch Trudeau into that concept I'd love to see it.

I don't think there's any question whether we're dumb enough to elect O'Leary because obviously we are. I just think that people in this thread are apparently losing perspective on Trudeau's enduring popularity. I'm not gonna pretend we can project two years into the future and Trudeau's numbers have dropped recently but I wouldn't write off PM Selfie just yet.

That's pretty good, but there's also a fundamental difference in their politics. Specifically Trump being an inexperienced outsider with a mandate to burn the American political establishment to the ground, versus Trudeau being a well connected insider with minimal experience being guided by the very definition of political establishment, and a mandate for business as usual. Where someone like O'Leary fits into this is unclear as yet, as we haven't seen the kind of burn-it-to-the-ground backlash here in Canada that seemed so prevalent in the American election.

Justin is well-liked by enough people, for now, unlike Hillary. We have three (3) rump parties with enough viability to actually impact things. While the way we decide the makeup of our Parliament is non-proportional, it is a gleaming beacon of fairness by comparison. Elections Canada is extremely good and non-partisan. So if it's any comfort, if Kevin wins a general it will be fair and square most prob. namaste faggots posted:boy you guys are sure concerned about park loving being illegal Juul-Whip fucked around with this message at 03:43 on Jan 20, 2017 |

If Canadians gave that much of a poo poo about their countrymen then why do so many of them jam the highways in desperation to flee their suburban enclaves to go to their even more absurdly far flung suburban enclaves all the way up north every weekend there is nothing; abandon all hope friend

O'Leary's claim to fame is building a house of cards with a series of quick acquisitions and shady paperwork, then duping an even larger company into acquiring his mess. So I guess we can start off by scooping up Greenland, Iceland, the Farroe Islands and the Turks and Caicos, then flipping everything over to China before they start to suspect anything.

I have no doubt O'Leary or Leitch or any of the CPC would gladly cede ultimate authority to Russia if it meant they got to rule their own little SSR indefinitely. Same for the Republicans, though.

You'd think all these folks who think countries should be run like companies would be supportive of separatist movements... "No, don't think of it as a breakaway republic, what we're doing is a *reorganization* to *release value* from the country" "I prefer the term national entrepreneur to 'rebel'"

I've met lots of people with business backgrounds who would do a better job of running the x than whoever currently does it. Thing is those aren't generally the people with business backgrounds interested in going into politics. That Arlene Dickinson op-ed someone linked kind of hits the nail on the head.
