The only upside that I can see is that Canadians will have a year to see what a trump style government can do to a country.. Also a trump style government is the same as a poilievre government.

One thing that could help would be the liberals pushing forward a new leader. People are fed up with Justin regardless if it is justified. The liberal party will lose voters to the right if they don't push forward a new face that Canadians are willing to give a fresh shot. If the liberals fail to provide new leadership to their party, they are partially at fault for a conservative win, they refuse to listen to their voter base.

True, though I would much rather see an NDP gov for once. The liberals make tons of progressive promises and then never deliver. The NDP strong armed them into the dental care plan else it likely would have never gone through.

Trudeau also seems to think he's not the problem with the party.. Or something. He recently said he has no plans on stepping down (or something to that effect) so I have doubts we'll see him step down.

The same could be said for NDP. I like Signh but he has failed to woo the electorate for multiple federal elections. Time to try something different. Why not try a woman? Show you are actually progressive as a party and maybe we'll see hardcore Liberal voters put their vote behind the NDP.

It almost feels like they want us to keep flipping sides every few years and never make any progress. It just feels so stagnant and every time we make progress like bike lanes, someone else reverses all that work and spends even more money.
