I don't follow. Without Trump's threatening to invade, Pollievre would likely have won. Would he not have suited US goals just as much, if not more than Carney?

It may have even been as much as a bazillion catgirl-cry

Honestly, if left of liberal politicians got into power in a state's party democrat apparatus, they'd probably win just due to inertia (provided they aren't sabotaged like the NV dems were, obviously). Chuds will call them communists, but they've been doing that for decades so I have to imagine it doesn't work on the average person anymore.

Imagining a bit where they do colorblind casting for the series in an attempt to attract progressive fans back, but still keep the character named "Cho Chang".

Y'all remember when the BLM protests burned down every city in the country? Because reactionaries do.

For a large number of people, it is to get drunk somewhere different.

"Senior associate deputy minister" of Finance apparently. From 2004-2007, so he was actually in with the Liberals for a bit before Harper came in in 2006.

Despite the three qualifying adjectives, it looks like he actually was responsible for quite a bit of policy. I would've figured only an elected representative could become a minister, huh.

Hey now, that seems awful uncivil. He should try to find some nuance by setting himself on fire to see how the cars really feel.

Looks like the options are passport, birth certificate, certificate of citizenship or naturalization, or certificate of Indian status. Never realized you could get in with just a birth certificate. But then again, who carries that with them?

If whoever's president in 2029 threatens to invade again that'd probably do it, though the conservatives have 4 years to come up with propaganda suggesting they're anti-Trump as opposed to getting caught unaware this time. Outside of that though, I can't see Carney being materially different from Trudeau, and if the government fails to address people's concerns, they will lose long-term. Very classic liberalism.
