I can't understand how people look at PP and think "there is a reputable dude who relates to the working class" Meanwhile he has never had a real job in his life, is the personification of a wedgie, and has only made clear policy statements about identity politics.
- I can’t understand how people look at PP
  If you’re the average Canadian and your rent has doubled or tripled, groceries have jumped 50%, and your health care system is collapsing in the last 8 years since Trudeau took power isn’t desperately wanting any alternative an obvious reaction? Many districts are effectively a two party race and if your only goal is to ensure Trudeau isn’t PM, the Cons are your only options.
  I’m not saying Pollievre will make any meaningful difference, but at the very least he’s been saying our housing system is broken. Trudeau’s had 8 years and things have only become much worse.
  
  People should look into the seperation of powers in this country. Rent and health care are provincial responsibilities, grocery bills are moved by market forces and on the rise globally, anyone pinning this on the LPC and thinking conservatives could fix it are in for a nasty surprise.
  
  That's too much to expect from the average Canadian which is why the cons control the majority of the provinces despite royally fucking them up. Canadians don't understand how government works.
  
  It's mouseland, just like Tommy Douglas said. People are incapable of conceiving of voting for the NDP, even when they know that red and blue will both fuck them.
