While the election still isn’t over; Trudeau and the Liberals are definitely having a bad campaign and it was a mistake to call an election now. So let’s be realistic; it is a real possibility O’Toole and the Conservatives could win the election, but the current polling shows that victory would be by the skin of his teeth.
Alberta Premier Jason Kenney along with Health Minister Tyler Shandro, and Chief Medical Officer Deena Hinshaw in a press conference on Wednesday evening suddenly reversed course on their “open for good” strategy for COVID-19 and suddenly plunged the province into new “health emergency” restrictions.
The Peoples’ Party of Canada may not gain a seat in this election, but they might not need one to achieve a significant victory. There are multiple scenarios in which the PPC could come away from this vote in a much stronger position to affect Canadian politics going forward.
After watching the only English debate it was clear that the only party leader who can truly be declared the winner is the People’s Party of Canada leader Maxime Bernier, despite not even participating.
Members of the media are expected to ask questions of the party leaders, and maybe even get a few good questions off, but rarely pose any questions that could damage the leader if they attempt to answer the question even somewhat truthfully.
In spite of the lead, Conservative Party leader Erin O’Toole has been jumping from foot to foot over the past week when it comes to the issue of firearms.
Just a year ago Conservative leader Erin O’Toole was still maintaining his front as being a “True Blue” Conservative who would never run on his own carbon tax, which he even put in writing for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. Now not only is O’Toole having the Conservative Party run on a carbon tax in the 2021 snap election but if you disagree with his carbon tax you will be removed from the CPC caucus.
Liberal Finance Minister Chyristia Freeland a couple of days ago was labeled by Twitter as having shared “Manipulated Media” after posting a heavily edited video in order to claim Conservative leader Erin O’Toole was in favour of moving towards private healthcare.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau may be considered a skilled politician seeing as he won a majority government back in 2015 against Stephen Harper, and still at least maintained a majority in 2019, but the reality is that Trudeau is the beneficiary not of natural political skill, but of a lot of lucky breaks.
Since rolling out his environment plan, Conservative Party leader Erin O’Toole has been unsuccessfully gaslighting Canadian Conservatives that his proposed “carbon pricing-scheme” is not a tax.
