I voted for the Liberals for the first time because I see Carney as essentially a progressive conservative. The far right has pretty much swallowed the old PC party, and are now more fringe than ever. I just could not hold my nose and vote for a party ran by people like Smith and Pollievre.
I've been pretty satisfied so far with Carney's work. I was always going to give him some time to clean up Trudeau's mess and stickhandle Agent Orange from the south. I've been pleasantly surprised so far on how much progress he's made already.
I'm hoping a few more PC minded cons cross the floor, and cons hopefully realizing catering to the loonie right fringe will always just get you official opposition status at best in this country. As long as Milhouse is still in charge however, I doubt they will learn any lessons from this.
