Wow

Check out the last sentence:

“With Trudeau as Leader, the Liberals garner the backing of 42 per cent of decided voters, pushing the Tories to a distant second place (26%) and the NDP to third (19%).”

Wow.

    While a Trudeaumania 2.0 might be possible, even unto a majority, would it be wise? Given what we now know about Trudeau’s antipathy towards the Western provinces and Alberta in particular, the West’s visceral and existential fears about nationalization and economic policies aimed to punish them would almost inevitably push them to separate or join the United States – something, given the Trudeau brother’s anti-Americanism, the United States would welcome. I have a great sense of foreboding. If Canada disintegrates, I will hold you and your ilk personally responsible for flogging someone who is clearly a deranged half-baked Marxist. One Trudeau was more than enough.

      Hmmm “…antipathy towards the Western provinces and Alberta…”

      This is beginning to remind me of the rationale for calling anti semitic anyone who finds the Israeli regime’s treatment of its non Jewish neighbours a tad ironic.

      Anyone who expresses concern about the environmental effects fo extracting and burning fossil fuels, or of the economic tilt in exporting raw, finite resources, is called “Anti Alberta and Anti Albertans.”

        No shit, eh, Dave! LOL!!

        One can always unfailingly tell which way the partisan wind is blowing based upon the Conservative trial balloons launched with monotonous & synchronized regularity.

  2. Its a poll… which is one teeny weeny step from a free rabies clinic
    You know.. where folks bring dogs on leashes and cats in burlap bags

    I know you’re smiling.. don’t try to hide it ..

    Our last election was like that
    except rabies won out …

    So, I guess polls are only garbage when they favour the Conservatives?

    • polls are kind of like the Vega point spread on sporting events..
      not for those who enjoy amateur or professional sports
      but for gamblers & betting fools

      Certainly the Conservatives removed ‘sporting’ or ‘fair”
      from any event they’re involved in .. such as elections or governance
      or selling resources or stripping habitat

    So when will the great white wonder tell us which Harpercon legislation he will repeal – if any?

    • Kelly says:

      Hopefully almost all of it. We’ve never had a government so comprehensively out of touch with the essence of this country and so utterly wrongheaded as the rogues gallery of phonies, cranks and cheats that sits there now.

  5. Jon Adams says:

    Not to be conspiracy-minded, but other than scot and (I think) doris above the breathless commentators above have never appeared on this website before, and suddenly one Trudeau post brings them out of the astroturfed woodwork.

    Okay, so I am being conspiracy-minded. So sue me– WAIT WAIT I WAS JOKING

  6. Corey says:

    This makes the scenario of at 2015 Liberal win quite plausible if led by Trudeau. If not, then at least the Liberals should be able to reduce Harper to a minority in 2015 and then go for the win at the next election.

  7. Joel says:

    Trudeau is truly the Liberal messiah….how can they deny him his rightful crown and ascendancy to leadership? Trudeau is the light and the future image of Canada. Justin Trudeau is Canada!

  8. portage & main says:

    One poll 2 years before an election. I wouldn’t start measuring 24 Sussex for curtains just yet

    WK, a few days ago:

    “Ipsos is real polling company. Not one of these sleazy shops that pollute too much of our public affairs, these days.”

    Really Libs….

    You are deluded if you think wee Justine is your last great white hope.
    He will be you utter ruin (which, by the way, I pray for nearly every day).

    But just not like this.

    He’s still lispy.
