The Conservatives have a 16-point lead. Three-quarters of the country think it's time for a change. But Justin Trudeau is vowing to fight Pierre Poilievre in the next election.

Why do they want him to go? Because if they are unhappy with their daily situation, it's more likely that their Conservative provincial leaders are the ones making their lives miserable.

But have you considered carbon tax, fuck Trudeau, immigration, woke agenda? These are the issues that matter to Canadians, apparently.

All this overtime from a lack of sensible labor laws leaves me perpetually short on sleep. Fuck the woke agenda, I want a nap.

Sorry, the best we can do is ostracize trans kids. The second half of your split shift starts in 35 minutes - don't be late!

Fucking Conservatives... we said outlaw transfats and they embarked on this ridiculous crusade. They need their damn ears cleaned.

People are always unhappy with their daily situation. They've now figured out that Trudeau can't magically fix everything that's wrong with Canada. Of course, Poilievre not only can't fix it but will make it worse, but there are a large number of people who are too dumb to figure that out until their noses have been rubbed in it for a while.

The housing situation goes back decades and was the responsibility of Liberal and Conservative governments at the federal and provincial levels. Municipalities also deserve a fair share of the blame.

I'd love to pin this on one bogeyman, but politicians of all stripes benefitted from housing austerity. As did a lot of homeowners and voters.
