What I find interesting is how scared he and his supporters seem. Not scared of real threats, but scared of the power they felt owed slipping away. They look desperate, suddenly finding themselves out of touch with no real answers. Just look at how they’re acting.
Instead of acting like a leader, he’s fear mongering, trying to play gotchya politics by skewing and misrepresenting
the way Carney says something, not his message. Instead of talking policy, he’s obsessing over Carney’s shoes. And when he does talk policy, like his fentanyl plan, he’s presenting absurd, poorly thought out plans that will go no where because they’re unconstitutional and wouldn’t work even if they weren’t because they target the wrong things and exacerbate other issues to an impossible degree. I mean, “I’m going to stop fentanyl and be tough on crime!” by... what… targeting users instead of dealers and further overloading the already bursting-at-the-seams justice system? Wow. Lucky us.
He’s being outclassed and outsmarted. He’s completely outmatched and has no answers. It’s honestly pathetic to watch. Meanwhile Carney is barely talking about PP at all. When he talks to people, he’s not afraid. He doesn’t say the perfect thing every time, but he’s selling hope in the face of adversity. He acknowledges the threats and is trying to be pragmatic about them, not panicked. All PP has is fear.
A lot can change so nothing is written in stone. But they’re going in the wrong direction fast and seem too proud or too stupid to adjust. I honestly hope they figure it out and change course here. Two strong people with two strong visions is better for Canada going into an election than one.
