Top 5 reasons why the Libs will call a fall election:
Justin's ego
They see an opportunity to crush the CPC & NDP in 1 fell swoop
Justin's Ego
Can only ride the anti-Trump / anti-populist wave so much longer
Justin's EGO
No getting rid of Trudeau until after he either wins or loses his 4th election.
He's not going to sit around and wait for it - I am sure a few others are already conspiring to move him out. He is not going to waste the opportunity to paint PP with whatever brush he wants. So long as the Libs keep catering to urban voters & SJWs he will keep winning at least minority governments.
If PP pivots in any way from his current populism, then you can bet a ton of CPC voters will shift to Bernier's party. If PP doesn't shift, then you can bet a ton of CPC voters will stay home.
I'll be voting for the Rhinoceros party this time. My kid is their local candidate. He can't do any worse than what we have now.
