Fair enough, albeit a little vague. Remains to be seen how much better one is than the other. I don’t have a lot of faith in Pierre’s ability to lead the country if he gets a majority, but if that happens I hope that he’s better than a lot of people are expecting.

Disruption to incumbent is a necessity in my eyes.
We currently have a minority government, there’s really no incumbent because the CPC could bypass Trudeau altogether if they would work with the bloc and NDP. It’s no secret that I’m not thrilled with the current government but at this time I’m not convinced that a conservative majority would be a better outcome for Canadians than a conservative minority that has to work with another party to get legislation passed.

It’s time for the Conservatives to come in - and I truly hope it marks a notable change for the positive, because what we’ve had to deal with throughout this government’s time has been atrocious.
Whether one likes it or not, I’m not really sure how much getting rid of the carbon tax alone is really going to boost the lives of everyday Canadians. His other plans so far seem to be mostly fluff.

If the Conservatives can come in and drive some positive change, it will then just force the Liberal party to come back to the table as a competent party, which is something they are not at this time.
A couple of big “ifs” there in my opinion. I always hope for the best with whatever government we get but the concerning part is the support for a party that themselves haven’t done much to shed some of their let’s call them less than competent stances while hoping that bringing them in will convince other parties to abandon their less than competent stances.

Appreciate the response though. If we end up with a CPC majority hopefully they don’t blow their opportunity.
