Mr. Trudeau Not doing So Well In Latest Poll

[Not getting younger]

From the article:

Specifically, the Liberals and New Democrats agreed to explore:

• Allowing an "expanded" three-day voting period during general elections;
• Allowing voters to cast their ballots at any polling place within their riding; and
• Improving the mail-in ballot process with both accessibility and maintaining integrity in mind.

Those all seem reasonable and good, but unfortunately don't address the much larger problem of the FPTP single member districts.

Worth repeating. Besides debt, crime economics and climate, ( the questions being asked by pollsters) and a self centered, center of the universe, division and polarization.

It should be noted that more accurately he walked away from it, because their preference( ranked ballots) which would see them in power indefinitely wasn’t what the electorate wanted.

Good thing, Pierre doesn’t have thugs to rough up reporters and slap cuffs on them.

I'm not sure the electorate has ever expressed a majority preference for anything but FPTP.
The people who spoke at the public consultations and the panel all preferred proportional representation of some kind.

Single Transferable Vote (what people keep erroneously calling "ranked ballot") was rejected by them but I think it remains one popular to the electorate.
Maybe not anymore, since Trudeau clutching at it and tanking other options may have tainted it for the general public - I haven't seen any polling on the issue for years.
(It would be good if it did lose support, although I fear the strategy of calling it "ranked ballot" may have tainted the view of all other methods using ballot ranking as well.)

Polling I have no clue. If I recall correctly they just didn’t receive a “clear consensus”..There’s a surprise It’s a struggle to get 65% voter turnout these days. That alone is a pretty clear indication something needs to change. What is apathy exactly?

I will say, I’m not surprised this is being tabled by the NDP. There are reasons certain parts of Canada always go to them.

Polling I have no clue.

There was a big poll a year or two ago that showed people want some kind of national assembly to make a better system and people want things like the government should have more than 50% of the vote and that seats should reflect the votes of the country better.

But they very carefully did NOT ask if people supported a Proportional Representation system (or which one).
That's always been the problem: people like the concept, but can't agree on the details.

If I recall correctly they just didn’t receive a “clear consensus”..There’s a surprise

Yeah, that's one of those things that is true, but bullshit.
If you frame it by asking what specific system people want, there is no consensus.
If you frame it by larger principles about what people want generally, there is more agreement.
Trudeau just had an answer he wanted, wasn't getting it, and fucked right off.

I will say, I’m not surprised this is being tabled by the NDP. There are reasons certain parts of Canada always go to them.

Third parties are almost the ones most interested in changing FPTP, especially if they have a badly distributed electorate.

The NDP would have had 60 seats by popular vote count in 2021 - they got 25.
In 2019 they should have had 54 - they got 24.
In 2015 they should have had 67 - they got 44.

It would be a huge deal for the NDP to get PR. I'm not at all surprised they've pushed even for these smaller reforms.

So let’s recap and sum up. As it stands.
-the cons rolling over Atlantic Canada ( I’d bet on some going orange instead)
-The NDP look to be picking up steam in Quebec.
-The center of the universe/liberal stronghold and as he said what decides things is a bloodbath
-The west is a bloodbath.
-The far west like liberals here disappearing. Likely more NDP

-It’s PeePees fault, it’s him pandering to Nazis, and the far right ad nauseum.
-The liberals are great just doing a fine job ad nauseum
-Anyone still think Singh might not flush them soon? Don’t know but it’s a real possibility.
Etc and so on.

Red. Flushed hard.

I dream about Justin Trudeau quitting almost as often
then I wake up & reality kicks in

his resignation would transfer the office to the sycophant Crysta Freeland & continuation of his failed policy's
so limited upside

His narcotism and ego prevent him from resigning
An ego which will be shattered via the next election

this version of the once proud liberal party of Canada needs to be booted to the curb by the electorate

As an American, I haven't heard Poilievre speak too much. He seems to me to be a smart, articulate politician. One might not agree with his views, but it's quite silly to try to paint caricatures of your politicians.

I would say Trudeau/Poilievre are infinitely better than Biden/Trump. Having politicians advocating their ideas and objectives is far better than the usual personal attacks.

 

[NotADcotor]

Probably quit before losing if the polls don't improve. On the other hand, inflation is heading down and the economy seems all right.

But you all just don't like our first blame Prime Minister rapist

Trudeau: I apologised to reporter behind groping claim

Canadian PM ‘very confident’ he did not act inappropriately at music festival in 2000

www.theguardian.com

But remember, believe all women, unless it's your guy.

Also remember Matt Damon had to apologize for saying this
"“We're going to have to figure – you know, there's a difference between, you know, patting someone on the butt and rape or child molestation, right?” "

So by the rules of wokeness. By groping a woman, Justin Beiber is the moral equivalent of a child molester and rapist.

Then you add his being a fan of Chinese basic dictatorship because they can get shit done on the environment which 1: is about as creepy as Trump and his dictator for a day comments, never mind that the idea of China doing good stuff for the environment is about as accurate as well anything Trump says, which is not at all.
