A bit of both. She was asked to take a different cabinet position and she refused and resigned.
Next election will but October 2025 and Trudeau will be gone. A long road to repairing the destruction these idiots will leave in their wake though.
Do you think they will last as the government until next October? It is beginning to look like the people are beginning to feel their oats and getting riled up with his shenanigans. Do you think there will be an election before then to rid Canadians of Turd O?
reply
It's possible but biggest issue is the NDP (socialist party) doesn't have enough money to run a proper campaign and they would be poised to likely pick up some seats the Liberals will lose. Most of the Liberals losses will go to the Conservatives but I am sure the NDP will pick up some. Since the Liberals are a minority government the other parties could have triggered an election with a vote of non confidence but the NDP has been siding with the Liberals to avoid it so they can fundraise in the meantime.
reply
Yes, the NDP can do that, but what is the cost to the Canadian economy and people? Perhaps the cost is too high to play that stupid political game. The reason they don’t have the money is that the people are not supporting them. In other words, they aren’t putting their money where their mouth is. Isn’t Singh the leader of the NDP? Don’t the Indians wish to support the NDP? India is a rather socialist, state oriented place, at least when I was there.
reply
Singh is not very popular.
reply
Yes, but he is the leader of the NDP, right? And with the parliamentary system, he only has to be popular in his riding, How does he maintain leadership if he is not very popular?
reply
Correct. We will see if he retains leadership or if they run someone else as the head of the party in the next election.
reply
That could be coming soon! Do you think the Liberals and the NDP will maintain their majorities or will the Conservatives and allies be able to overcome them in the elections if held soon?
reply
This seems probable. Freeland was the second of little potato's ministers to resign.
Timing seems kinda sus for me, although Fraser cited other personal reasons for doing so.
If even Freeland couldn't see eye to eye with the leadership, then I'm afraid we don't even know how bad the situation is
reply
Well, with Turd O at the helm, how much economic and budgetary tomfoolery do you think went on? I don’t think he has an idea in the world of how the real world, outside of politics, works.
