Actually this makes it look even more like he is doing it just for the pension.

Winter sitting starts on Jan 27. Election period is a minimum of 36 days. So even if they have a no confidence vote on the first day that would put election day on March 3rd. His pension kicks in on Feb 25th.

Ah. Well, still happening sooner than I expected. This announcement was the push I needed to update my voter registration.

Yes, as well as a little whiskey to the coffee.

Actually the most recent poll was done by Abacus and shows exactly that.

58% of Canadians want an election now
23% do not want an election
15% don't know
4% don't care

Interesting. Is there a link to this?

Maybe that's the plan. Jagmeet gets to sound as if he's finally ready to do something, and Trudeau can foil his plan and prorogue parliament.

Christmas just got a bit more merry!

I guess we were right that it is best for NDP to vote for an election. Unless, of course, the NDP are doing the wrong thing for their party?

Why would I comment on it? I did not make it, and fuzz was not responding about it.

Cool! Haven't been called names since i was in elementary school on a playgrond.

it's actually not black and white, which should go without saying. Heres the truth

Its also important to balance support with challenges. Too much support without accountability or opportunities for growth can lead to complacency, while too little support can cause frustration or burnout.

So it's a combination as per usual.
