  • It’s just not the time for her. I respect her deeply and thought she was great in the debate, and she did a great job last time Trump was in power.

    I just think she couldn’t win the next fight (the general election), and frankly I think a PM who Trump completely loathes would become his punching bag instead of his foil. Freeland could take a punch for sure – don’t mean to imply she’s weak, but I think it wouldn’t help.

    I worry about Carney not being an outspoken and charismatic leader against Trump. Between Pollievre and Trump I think he’s going to get dumped on, but I trust that he won’t care because he’ll be heads down enough on the technical sides of leadership it doesn’t matter. We’re already united, he can be a general and tactician.




  • 85.9% – that rounds to 86% not 85%

    I’m so glad I donated and voted. I’ve voted liberal since Trudeau’s first run, and prior to that I voted NDP (my local NPD candidate was awesome, and I knew him through charity work – I would have voted any party to support that guy).

    I’m thrilled with this news.

    I don’t dislike Freeland, but she would have been a disaster. I liked her in the debate, but I hated her campaign (in an alternative universe where Trudeau never ran, she’d have been great). She can’t brush off the last 9 years of her life – she was helping steer the LPC bus, there’s no getting around that. I’m glad she drove it into a fence and forced this vote though.

    Gould seemed good but I don’t think she would ever convert any Conservative voters, or even be a clear choice above NDP.

    I actually loved Baylis, I thought he killed the debate doing by far the best. I would support him.
