I think they’d be taking upwards of 20%, and I think they’d be draining all the parties, disproportionately the left.

We don’t have the details yet as the Liberals haven’t formally presented this to the public, however it appears to be targeted at primary residences which are currently exempt.

Arrogant CPC straight face Aug 2021:

snicker values are for idiots, PPC wont get more than 1.6%

Arrogant CPC gaping face Sep 2021:

PPC voting intention skyrocketing wont be acknowledged or discussed because they’re still super stupid and we’re super smart.

Hahahah this is so amazing, even has our mod’s name one it.

Ham- rush over and give this template to Erin so he can have it ready if he wins.

If it was 1935 Ham would be furiously drawing pictures of how stupid Jews are for not voting for this.

I wonder if he will be capable of detecting the irony, or if he’s as NPC on his position as the leftists.

TLDR: if elections Canada find itself in court over this, they will probably be forced to show current evidence of the effectiveness of masks. I’ll note in cases where various governments have been required to produce similar data they’ve failed to do so, and either dropped cases or lost.

Haha this is actually pretty interesting, and I don’t think it’s without risk for Elections Canada.

They point to the Charter and say specific methods of voting are not guaranteed:

“While section 3 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees the right to vote, it does not guarantee access to any particular method of voting. Electors who choose not to wear a mask where masks are required have the option to vote by special ballot. Elections Canada must balance the values underlying the individual right to vote with its mandate to provide safe and accessible voting services to electors.“ -Elections Canada

I suspect if find themselves in court their rational may end on the shit end of a verdict, which could leave an opening to argue political bias:

“Section 3 must be interpreted having regard to the philosophical principles that have guided the historic development of the right to vote in our constitutional tradition (Saskatchewan Reference, supra). It must also be interpreted in a way that advances the values and principles that embody a free and democratic society, which include respect for a diversity of opinions and beliefs (Figueroa, supra, at paragraph 27; Saskatchewan Reference, supra, at 188-189).“ -Charter

As an aside Ham, forgive me, but I don’t think you have a representative window into the minds of where a majority of people who currently indicate support for PPC’s minds are. No doubt this phenomenon will have some level of influence, I suspect it will be minimal.

So many older/obese/unhealthy people are so afraid of death that they'd set a chain reaction in place to implement dystopia if it meant they could breathe for an extra 10 seconds.

This is different from the election, the states that are resisting are the same ones that certified Trump electors.

Look at patriots.win and the statements being made by various governors and AGs

Thank you for posting this.

I thought that subsidy was ended.

I am following this path.

Nah Republican states won’t stand for it, half of a states have already announced intention to respond with court action.

I have a ton of respect for this guy.

And he’s right about masks being a farce. Even if someone thinks they work generally, in a restaurant setting wtf.

Unfortunately Ford will likely shut him down and destroy him to set an example.

Voting day is safest as it reduces the amount of time in which fuckery could happen.

However widespread cheating is very difficult as we use hand counted paper ballots. There will be representatives from the major parties observing and scrutineering the count.

When they repeated states as fact “humans cause climate change” it further conditions morons to assume climate change isn’t an ongoing natural phenomenon

While it’s logically obvious that humans influence climate change, I think it’s likely highly exaggerated, and regardless any mitigating counter influence via policy wont yield a measurable effect. The various climate plans do however vary in how damaging they are to the economy.

People are such pussies that they won’t allow a cost/benefit analysis to virtually anything. We need to fix the culture if we want to hold this thing together long term. If we don’t fix the culture this CPC win this election at most buys a bit more time before the institutions start getting stripped away.

Things are not going well, and I think sea levels are the least of our concerns right now.

He is currently supported by between 5-10% of polling respondents.

Trudeau/O’Toole/Singh perhaps didn’t want Bernier on stage but I think Canadians deserve to hear him deliver his message, to allow him to ask and answer questions like the others.

I believe PPC is an imperfect vessel channelling a new populism that currently exists. He’s modified messaging to focus on the covid freedom movement and it’s working.

Whether or not the debate would’ve cost or gained PPC votes he should have been there to give a voice to these new supporters, and to allow their ideas to be adjudicated by the other leaders, Rosemarie Cunt, and most importantly the public. And TBH I think PPC is opening a path for a CPC government maybe sort of close to majority.

If you look closely Bernier’s new support appears to be coming at the disproportionate expense of the left.

On election night if these freedom lovers from the left (and people who don’t normally vote) largely stick with PPC while many of the right leaners jump ship to O’Toole that’s a path for CPC to outperform fairly bigly.

These all just my guesses of course, but I would guarantee PPC polling numbers are the topic of many conversations in Ottawa over these last few days.

PS fuck it I’m voting PPC, CPC has me extremely butt hurt right now and it’s too fresh. Plus safe riding so nbd.

It’s hilarious that they essentially all agree with each other on everything.

If PPC was in the debate they would very likely grow further.

Holy shit this debate is a rigged dumpster fire.

CanadianRighty 3 points ago +3 / -0

I don’t think so. CPC is currently too strong for that to happen.

5
CanadianRighty 5 points ago +5 / -0

That scenario is extremely unlikely but I would say he would almost certainly do that for a halfway decent concession on covid/vax shit.

I have my doubts on if CPC would even play ball.

If CPC gets a plurality of at lease 145 -150 seats, and the LPC/NDP don’t take a combined 170, I think the CPC will attempt to form government without formal arrangements with anyone else.

CanadianRighty 9 points ago +9 / -0

Maybe that somewhat but I think they're shifting to LPC primarily.

I suspect its largely:

NDP to LPC LPC to CPC CPC to PPC

If this is valid and sustained it represents a large paradigm shift.

I'll note the unvaccinated population skews young.

This data will be viewed by all three main parties as very worrying.

If this trend continues O'Toole will no doubt make some course corrections in an attempt to appease us.

It will be very interesting to see how the turd reacts, I suspect he will further harden his position.

PPC is draining votes from every party right and left.

I'm sticking with my prediction that CPC and PPC will each improve on 2019 results, that Bernier takes Beauce.

"The typical PPC supporter, based on polls as recent as last month, is ... pretty normal, actually, at least demographically. They are fairly evenly distributed across every segment of Canadian society. No province has a wildly high or low number of PPC supporters (Alberta was a bit higher than the others, but only a very small bit, and with an overall small sample size). They are found fairly consistently across all age groups and economic and educational classes. The only really notable divergence in Wright's numbers was on gender lines — men are twice as likely to support the PPC as women."
