Politicians only really care to serve the interests of swing voters and their wealthy donors. They don't care about their "base". If politicians know they can count on your vote no matter what, they won't work for your vote.
The typical swing voter in Canada is a suburban Karen who wants low taxes but doesn't want you to attend social gatherings because they don't want you to kill their parents. This is literally the typical Doug Ford voter in my riding. But they don't have the IQ to understand that it's literally impossible to have low taxes and lockdowns. Inflation is also a form of taxation.
Because it's the same thing. Someone's convincing you to throw your vote away rather than threaten Trudeau with it.
