Class warfare? Let’s gooooooo!

It is interesting. A non-zero number switched in this way for sure. I just suspect that the overall trend was “being duped into voting for a Liberal name on a ballot who finished a distant third anyway.”

I’m sure there are individuals. I just suspect that the shifts in those ridings that swung NDP-CPC were NDP-LPC moves in far greater numbers, with the CPC vote staying still.

Do you? Your profile uses LPC slogans. You really don’t seem like you’re just doing a bit.

But individual voters do not tend to go, in 1 election cycle, NDP to CPC. They are convinced to choose the fallacious “lesser of 2 evils” vote, and turning all those 2-way NDP-CPC ridings into 3-way races helped Poilievre, as you showed above.

Wait… you’re saying that all those people convinced to vote Liberal to keep out Poilievre caused CPC to actually *gain* 3 seats against LPC? And you thought this proved that if those people kept voting NDP, Poilievre would have won?

Because the LPC cultists convinced people in CPC-NDP ridings (there are many on the prairies and southwest Ontario) to vote liberal as though we had 1 national election for prime minister.

Yeah, like strategic voting in general, a very successful disinformation campaign by the Liberal Party of Canada. Their plan worked.

Let him catch strays. Being pro-forced-birth should already put him outside of any discourse.

The last leftist to really catch fire in Canada famously removed the word “socialist” from the platform of his party, because of this exact 1-1 association *in Canada.* The next person in that party to receive positive national attention (Kinew) just praised Ronald Reagan last week.

I am saying that it is challenging for a Mamdani-like figure to emerge in the colonial backwater of Canada where I live because we *do* indeed preserve anti-Soviet sentiment and link all uses of the words “communist” or “socialist” to the USSR.

And then I told you that in Canada, the neoliberal propaganda *has* achieved this feat: that people equate the word “socialism” with the system of the USSR. Politicians in the largest parties get away with saying that communism is an evil at the same level as fascism.
