Definitely backlash happening - the CPC basically looking at a blowout super-majority in the next election and everybody knows it.
I don’t think Trudeau will even run. He knows he’ll lose and he is, at his core - a coward

I lost a bit of faith in Poilievre when he went hard at Christine Anderson. Not sure why that happened and he never backtracked / apologized. So strange.
I travel a lot and I generally try to avoid Canada now. I visited after the pandemic and, honestly, it felt a bit like visiting a hospital. The people I knew there were all suffering from something. Financial problems, health issues, etc. Amazing people but seems like the whole country is far off the path and will have a long hike back to prosperity.
Hopefully Poilievre can turn it around. 🤞
I hear Alberts a Sasketchewan are bucking the Ottowa govt, ignoring some BS lawas and not letting the federals do their thing
The problem is that most countries have a federal income tax which is the most powerful way to raise revenue.
This makes the states / provinces dependent on the federal govt for handouts. It will be hard for these provinces to stay independent but I hope they can.
Alberta can - they have the oil. And Ontario is basically the economic engine of Canada for everything else
I was wondering if income taxes could just be increased and the funds redistributed to federal supporters? Can Alberta secede? I heard that Canada doesn’t even have a real constitution and the govt can opt out.
