Just brutal, not sure why they wouldn't have an election right away.

The only thing he will fix is your appetite to be deplorable for another election by voting for him!

Is that all you got lol?

Today is a step in the right direction, Trudeaus worldview isn't in the best interest of most Canadians.

Will PP fix everything? nope, but I am sure you will hold him to such an insane standard that he won't be able to do anything right.

Hopefully you hold yourself to those unrealistic standards too.

So I guess “we need a strong government to stand up to Trump” was just… talk? Was it really ever about what is best for Canada?

I've been promised easy, common sense fixes.

Axe the tax, build the homes, fix the budget, stop crime!

Clinging on life support will continue to upset more and more Canadians and will be viewed as a dying grasp on power.

I didn't want to vote for Trudeau but i'm sure not voting for Pierre so this is having the opposite effect of what you think is going to happen. Bring in a proper conservative leader and I will vote conservative but i'm not taking chances with PP.

Justin only cares about Justin. He can stuff the rest of the rhetoric.

You need to have more faith in his " Team Canada" approach.

Many people are learning about how our political system works today. The Liberals technically still have the confidence of the house, and their leader has resigned. So, they are picking a new leader and holding an election before the end of October.

Sure, we know that if there was a confidence vote today, they might not win, but that isn't how decisions are made.

Speaking of excuses, you must have missed post 16818. I understand, this has probably been a very difficult morning for you.

Perfect time for Trump to step in and take control of Canada. That should be job #1 on Jan 21.

Wont' get security clearance, wants to get rid of the bank of Canada. Is antivax and anti science and supported the freedumb truckers. Glad he lives up to your low deplorable standards! lol

Trudeau has resigned but grocery prices have not lowered 1 cent this morning.

Wtf, thanks PP.

[Locke]

Lol! That was great!

One reporter just yells out:

"If you thought it was responsible to resign then why not earlier?"

And he just casually walks away.

Report: Just one or two million mistakes can bring down a Prime Minister

“Canadian voters have become far less forgiving than they were during the elder Trudeau’s government,” said analyst Chauncey Kearns. “They don’t just accept things like lying about your vacations, doing blackface as a teenager, interfering in criminal prosecutions, siphoning money to a charity run by your friends, doing blackface as an adult, breaking your promise on electoral reform, dressing in cosplay while visiting a foreign country, admitting you don’t know how many times you’ve done blackface, firing Ministers out of the blue who then go public about your failures, or inviting a Nazi to Parliament the way they used to.”

“We came into office in 2015 riding a wave of popularity that gave us the political capital to do anything we wanted,” said PMO boss Katie Telford. “9.5 years later weed is legal and daycare is a bit cheaper than it would have been otherwise so… you’re welcome Canada.”

NDP voter bro. Good effort on the deflection, terrible execution.

Expected more from “the war thread is my favourite thread” guy.

LOL. I'm not in favour of Trudeau sticking around for months, but that doesn't mean I want to join the US.

I'm not sure if this is serious or not? What does the federal government have to do with insurance prices?
