    My first concern is not having Scheer as PM.

    LMFAO...lower approval rating than Trump.

    You have choices.  Trudeau the crook, the green, or the NDP that is forecast to lose every seat that they hold in Quebec.

    I'll take my chances with Sheer and his plan to remove the useless carbon tax and GST off the heating.

    I like the carbon taxes.
    I don't like plenty of what Trudeau has done, but I also like a lot of what he has done, so yeah, since none of the choices are good, and I will vote for anyone who is most likely to beat Scheer, of course I will choose to vote for Trudeau again. Canada does NOT need the kind of politics that Scheer and his supporters will bring.
    The fact that Trudeau has a lower approval rating than Trump (today) just tells me that Scheer is even more dangerous to our country than some seem to think. That poll reflects the kind of public reaction that got Trump into office.

    You all act like he hasn't done a thing. He actually has achieved some stuff - I don't see any reason in pretending otherwise, even if you hate his guts. People should just get real about all this.

    We live in a time where you are supposed to either adore or hate our leaders. Pick a side!!

    my major concern in the upcoming election will be who can get pipelines or refineries actually built (and I'm not from Alberta)
    Dimples is a Howdy Doodie puppet being pulled by Harper with no ideas but to oppose (where is your environmental plan?)
    NDP left with Layton
    not a fan of JT, but is the lesser of the evils

    would consider the Cons if they were lead by someone sensible ( Lisa Raitt, Peter McKay) but as long as they have the Rempel's and Poilievre's I cannot get on board

    LMFAO...

    The NDP under Layton got lucky in Quebec in 1 election.  Once Quebecers realized that the NDP could not deliver on the goods, they were done.

    Sheer...No carbon tax and eliminating the tax on home heating, I'm good.

    Trudeau insults Canadians on a regular basis...

    Oh yeah, Trudeau is so much better than Sheer.  Sheer needs to up his game and start insulting soldiers, seniors, veterens, fist nations...I'm sure I left some Canadian group.  Maybe he can get pointers from the Alberta health minister on the best way he can call us sewer rats...by the way Alberta, should the health misister look like the unhealthiest Albertan ever...

    Howdy Doodie puppet...haha, so true.

    Will the real sewer rat win re-election.  I doubt that.  Will the dippers win even 1 seat, we will see.  This Alberta's health minister...

    I wish there was a more centrist party option

    the Liberals are too liberal these days
    Conservatives are a little too right
    NDP too far left, Greens even more so
    Bernier's party even further right

    i understand the Cons would never split again (Conservative/Reform) as they would never compete for a majority again, but I feel there is a political void still not represented

    maybe I'm too picky ha ha

    I think your frustrations are frustrations felt by many...I think most Canadians are middle of the ground, but currently, none of the parties are moderates.  But I can not support Trudeau or the liberals unless they hold a public enquiry about the Lavelin affair...9000 jobs lost was complete BS and job loses should not matter when you break the law.

  • I had high hopes for the dork, but Justin has been a failure and seems to be getting even worse (given time to 'grow within the job'... he's still not ready). 

    Sheer is overtly an idiot.

    Sheesh.

    How is the JWR thing a feminist issue? It's not. It's not an indigenous issue either. It bugs me that people, including JWR, are turning it into one.

    This great news, finally a little expansion of OHIP services.  Hopefully, this leads to the eventually covering low-income people period.

    He is less popular than Trump.  He is also accused of obstruction of justice and shutting down committees...

    And like Trump both were given everything, seeing as Trudeau is trust fund baby...

    No, Trudeau's main opponent, Scheer, is more "the Big Don of the North". He plays a lot of the same kind of politics as Trump, appealing to the lowest common denominator, and seeking support from racists. But really, we don't have a Trump. Nobody does. Trump is "unique", lol.

    Just a few weeks back he said low income Canadians do not pay taxes...yes they do.  

    In Edmonton at a town hall meeting a few years back, he look at soldier (who lost his leg in service) and said “you are asking more than we give)...this from a clown who pledged 50 million via a tweet to Trevor Noah’s charity.

    There is a 1st nation reserve, Grassy Narrows, that has had there water supply contaminated by mercury in the 60’s and no government has fixed the problem...so last week at a 1500/person fundraiser for the liberal party, a grassy narrows resident bought a ticket for the fundraiser to protest, and as she was being escorted out by security, he arrogantly thanked her for  her donation to the liberal party of Canada.

    Those are my top 3 insults to Canadians from our trust fund spoiled pm...

    plus he gets 2 taxpayer paid nannies...the dude is a fucking millionaire.

    at least our previous pm was not insulting us weekly, did not ask us to fund his nannies and not taking tax payer funded vacations monthly...

    he also may be the 1st pm since the 30’s to be ousted after 1 term.

    and today he said politicians shouldn’t lie to Canadians...that’s all that d]fool does is lie...

    The previous pm was selling out Canada. He desperately needed to go and that was evident in the election results.

    He was a shmuck. Trudeau sucks, but he’s legalized marijuana and that was huge.
