Sounds like your "Conservative Party" has been infiltrated by Communists, and is basically now masquerading as controlled opposition. Probably time to start a new party....
"Imagine for one minute if I personally were to spend my time yelling these exact same quotes at a senior scholar in the economics profession. Would you pat me on the back and tell me I was doing a good job, as her #EconTwitter “friends” are doing? Or would you tell me to sit down like a petulant child that I am?"
The CPC is such a joke. I'd love to believe that there's some possibility of a Canadian Trump - but I suspect you're right that Canadians are simply too dominated by the normie demographic.
Canada's future may not be white, but I'm skeptical Canada has a future tbh.
The CPC has always seemed a bit weak kneed to me. I'm not Canadian, but it's been my impression that they try way too hard to not offend anyone, and always end up compromising their values in the process.
I found this an odd comment regarding Pierre Poilivre :
" Sure, he “fires up the base,” but take a look at the base: old and white. That is simply not the future of Canada. That is the past. He is destined to lead an ever-shrinking percentage of conservatives into irrelevance."
That's exactly what they said about Trump. And look, lo and behold, it's not just old white folks who like Trump's policies...imagine that.
Now, mind you, I was faked into thinking Steven Harper was a conservative, as I was about George W Bush too. So, my political instincts are suspect. BUTTTT... what's the alternative? A Canadian version of Nikki Haley???

Women's tears.
I still don't understand why everyone keeps falling for the CPC? Was it not apparent three leaders ago that they are controlled opposition?
