Who will you be voting for??

[K Douglas]

Anything is possible, but the conservative vote is concentrated in rural areas, which are not seat-dense. Cons winning by 10,000 votes in rural Alberta counts the same as Liberals winning by 1 vote in a GTA riding.

Liberals have better vote efficiency is what I'm saying, so a tie in the popular vote favours the Liberals.

Trudeau lost the popular vote in 2019 and 2021, and got a 184 seat majority with 39.5% of the vote.

While that has been true in the past two elections I think the vote efficiency might favor the CPC this time. Because so much of the NDP vote is swinging to the Liberals much of that will happen in ridings where the Liberals are going to win anyways. Case in point Toronto. And don't forget the PPC poached 5% of the vote in the last election this time they won't be close to that because they aren't running candidates in more than half of all the ridings.

This election is going to be tight. I do think the Conservatives will have the most seats come tomorrow morning but it likely won't be enough to form a majority. They are likely going to need to form an alliance with the Bloc.

The Bloc won't support the CPC. If the conservatives gain the most seats but not a majority, they'll likely fail to form government. Liberals/ndp/bloc would then have an opportunity to form a minority coalition.

This is ANOTHER issue with PP as leader: He's very unlikeable, even in political circles.

And IF this were to happen, the low information conservative voter would freak out about a stolen election. Even though it's how parliamentary democracies work, and would represent the votes of more Canadians than a conservative-lead minority would have.

One is a "Trump Lite" professional politician who has never worked a day in the private sector; the other is an accomplished financial wizard and businessman.


One delivered coffee and donuts to a twat mob occupying a Canadian city; the other helped save financial sectors and is internationally recognized for his intelligence and exceptional business acumen.


How anyone could lump the two together is simply astounding.

If he was so smart then why did he have to copy Poilievre's platform?

Last I checked it was the Liberals who violated the Canadian Charter of Rights right?

Btw they "loved" Carney so much in England that they asked him to resign! Good thing he's invested heavily in the US, phew! Just what Canada needs right now...someone who truly values our dependency on the US.

Let me show you AI's unbiased response to your silly question, have a read Scoob if you dare


Mark Carney and Pierre Poilievre would approach Trump very differently, mainly because they have fundamentally different styles, experiences, and worldviews.


Here’s a breakdown:

	Mark Carney	Pierre Poilievre
Background	Global banker, ex-Governor of Bank of Canada and Bank of England. Internationally connected.	Career politician. Populist, anti-elite messaging.
Style	Polished, diplomatic, technocratic. Focus on global cooperation.	Combative, populist, blunt. Focus on national sovereignty.
Approach to Trump	Likely cautious, professional. Would avoid open confrontation, emphasize stability, alliances, markets.	Likely more aggressive, populist to populist. Would frame Trump as either an ally in fighting "the elites" or attack Trumpian chaos if it suited him.
On Trade (eg. NAFTA)	Would stress the importance of stable trade relations and use institutional channels to protect Canadian interests.	Would be aggressive on "Canada First" terms. Might align with Trump if it meant pushing protectionist policies.
On Foreign Policy	Very multilateral — would try to work around Trump through G7, G20, etc.	Would likely be more transactional — deal directly, less worried about international optics.
Personal Demeanor	Cool, professional, appeals to global elites and moderate voters.	Fiery, appeals to populists, libertarians, and people angry at the status quo.

In short:

• Carney would treat Trump carefully, almost like managing a risky financial asset — respectful publicly, maneuvering behind the scenes.
• Poilievre would either align with Trump's populism when it’s useful or openly fight Trump if it gave him a domestic political advantage.

The bigger difference:
Carney is much more globalist and institutional — he sees Canada’s success as tied to international systems.
Poilievre is more nationalist and anti-institutional — he sees Canada’s success as tied to autonomy and breaking up elite control.

I don't see the Bloc aligning with the Liberals/NDP at all. Blanchet has disdain for Carney.

Mark Carney's Liberals won. What happens next?

Here's how what to know about what comes after a projected Liberal win.

www.bbc.com

When will we get results of the Canada election?

Preliminary results will likely come in late on Monday night or early on Tuesday morning, local time.
But officials double-check vote totals after the election.

News outlets, including the CBC, the Canadian public broadcaster, will usually declare a projected winner on election night after most votes are counted. These will be based on initial results from Elections Canada, which runs the country's federal elections.

Poll closings are staggered around the country to accommodate the multiple time zones.
The first polls close in Newfoundland and Labrador at 19:00 EDT (00:00 BST) and the last polls in British Columbia close at 22:00 EDT (03:00 BST).

The biggest sweep of polls close at 21:30 EDT (02:30 BST), including in Ontario and Quebec. This will be a consequential time to see big wins and losses for the political parties.
If the Conservatives or Liberals win big in the eastern part of the country, it is possible the election can be called earlier in the night.

But more time could be needed to ascertain whether Canadians elect a minority or majority government.

Because Ontario and Quebec make up 200 out of 343 seats in Parliament, there might an early election call if there is a sweep. Some parts of the country are worth watching to see trends, including the "905", a horseshoe of municipalities around the city of Toronto that make up 31 ridings, or constituencies. It's long been a battleground between Liberals and Conservatives.

Many eyes will also be focused on two ridings in the Ottawa area. Carney, who has never been elected to Parliament, is running in Nepean - near Ottawa.
Meanwhile, Poilievre is seeking to hold his seat in Carleton, a riding also outside Ottawa.

Unless the polls are wildly wrong, I dont think he can win.

Even if PP beats Libs by 2 or 3 points, Carney will just form another NDP/Liberal coalition, and thats game over for Conservatives

If Carney doesn't win, he'll move on and won't remain as the leader of the party. He's not in it for politics...he's in it for money.

 

[Burldude]

If Carney doesn't win, he'll move on and won't remain as the leader of the party. He's not in it for politics...he's in it for money.

I think he already makes 10x more that what a PM does.

Have a good night watching your peepee loosing the election and his seat

 

[DesRicardo]

If Carney doesn't win, he'll move on and won't remain as the leader of the party. He's not in it for politics...he's in it for money.

What about his riding?

That wouldn't be a good look if he turns his back on Nepean. Especially when he kick out the previous candidate they elected.

 

[DesRicardo]

If Mark Carney wins, a lot of Globalist will get rich off of our backs.

He will run up debt, give contracts to his buddies and we will be stuck with they debt payment.

This is basically how most socialist countries collapse. The Gov says they will do 'investments', they never come into fruition, Leaders then run off and the people are screwed.

I guess you believe you're smarter than AI, WOW!!! LMAO, HAHAHAHAHA, sorry for laughing but you're a funny guy.

You didn't like Shaqs reply, I know you will not like my opinion so I gave you an unbiased opinion and you shat on that. It just goes to prove you're an angry do your own research type of guy.
