He was doing everything he could to persuade it from happening and failed.
You should be more concerned about him moving his business to the US while fooling you into thinking he's looking out for Canada.
Mike Carney to replace Trudeau as Canada’s new PM

He was chairman of the board who is responsible to shareholders. I am not worried about that. He was not a political figure in the UK, but he was right. The Brexit was a huge mistake for them.
It does not help the Cons that PP framed himself as a Canadian Trump.
Username checks out lol
PPs a weasel who will bend over to Trump and won’t put Canada first
Why would Trudeau want his party to lose? Low IQ comment here
Once the polling showed between Freeland and Carney who went better against Pierre, coupled with her considered "betrayal" by the Trudeau fans, and the general new broom mindset, I figured it would beca landslide.
PeePee has only himself to blame. He developed no policy platform and his entire campaign was based around personal attacks on JT and presenting himself as the "Canadian Trump".
Subtract JT and tarnish the Trump brand and PeePee is left with no selling points and no platform. A well deserved loss for an asshole who had a couple of years to do better and failed.
PeePee has no policies. He just attacked Trudeau and gabbled about "Making Canada Great Again". That's why he is now likely to lose.
He said this when he announced he would run for leadership.
I believe he said something about it being a hidden tax to us, in the form of tariffs against places like the US and China, who don't have climate policies and a higher tax on industry here, which won't help in keeping any industry in Canada.

That is just what I explained in the post you are responding to.
"As I said I will vote ideologically to do my part in voting against right wing politics (whatever that means in Canada) as the world is trending in a dangerous far right direction."
Most Sane people would choose Carny over Pierre the trump administrators that gave pierre a whole new look and make over even turned his skin orange the night of election. Every single post he does on social media is lead by the American republicans. His advisor wears her maga hat as many times as she can but when pp thought trump was causing him to lose he had trump say hes not maga boy. but there hundreds of pictures proving otherwise.
How, exactly, was he supposed to prevent it?
Democracy.
Or is your objection that he didn't do something illegal to stop Brexit?

That's totally up to you.
But no, the rhetoric being similar isn't "my opinion".
It just is.
Whether or not you think it is fair that he is being tarred by that association is a separate issue.
That's a good point.
It isn't just him aping the rhetoric and framing, it is that people want someone to stand up to Trump and Pollievre has given the impression he will do anything but.
(Of course, there is a reason we have campaigns, and how Pollievre decides to actually campaign once the election officially kicks off will be interesting to see.)
I expected it to be a landslide, but somewhere just above 70%.
I didn't expect him to break 85.
