Canada! Stay strong. Stay the Course. Resisting Trump is central to the US dislodging him and his crypto-real estate pro-oligarchic Putinist huckstersAmericans do not support Trump's belligerent and bullying imperialism. .
Party members only. In our system, if the party in power has a leadership race, the winner becomes the leader of the government. There will eventually be an election.
The speeches were wonderful - so proud to be a Canadian. Compare our leaders - present, past and future - with the orange sackβoβshit who confuses βfederalβ with βfentanylβ.

This American doesnβt know howngoodnornbad he was as a PM, but absolutely loved how while facing regination he stood up so proudly for Canada!!! Best to you in the future!
The election deadline is October, but it can be triggered early if the governing party loses a confidence vote in Parliament.
The Conservatives intend to trigger a vote as soon as Parliament resumes, and one of the minor parties is supporting them. They have the votes to bring down the government.
Thanks for that info! Your party divisions, baffled me. I donβt understand the enmity between the NDP and the liberals, and the fact that the conservatives can win parliamentary majority with 35% of the vote. You need ranked choice voting!
I wouldn't call it enmity, just differing priorities. The Liberals are a big-tent, centre-left party, while the NDP are a left wing democratic socialist/labour union party.
The NDP was actually keeping the minority Liberals afloat these past years, and have only recently withdrawn their support.
Depends on what party they support. LPC members are likely ecstatic. CPC and NDP voters will be looking to see what his policies are and which ones to complain about. BQ voters will ask what's in it for them. Green party voters, I don't know really.
A lot of countries have learned from the mistakes the US just made. Brazil, Germany, Canada. Now we just have to overcome this and learn from it as well
I'm sorry to see Trudeau go. I remember when he introduced his first cabinet, half were women. Some reporter asked him why or what was the purpose, and he just said, "Because it's 2015".
He had me there.
Obs: Not Canadian.
I'm a little leery of Carney
He's a business man and we know how that turned out with Trump
Even though I use the word business man and Trump very loosely
I think being born in Fort Smith, Northwest Territories instead of Manhattan, the son of a stay-at-home mother and a high school principal and not a racist real estate mogul makes Mark Carney a completely different person than The Felon Guy.
He is a world renowned Economist. And he has worked very hard to create environmental

and twitterpated with Putin. Trump looks at Putin, like 11 year old girls looked at Justin in the 1990s. I'm surprised Trump doesn't have a poster of Putin on his bedroom wall.π«¦π
Trump has no resistance to Putin, and Putin knows it.π₯°
It would be funny if everyone's life didn't depend on it.
He was selected to run not one but two central banks. Those are not easy jobs to get, let alone twice. He should bring pretty decent qualifications to the leadership.
decent qualifications but wrong approach - privatization and deregulation to boost private investment is not the answer. This will increase our dependency on American investors. We need collective, public solutions. Bring back work in the public sector, nationalizing instead of subsidizing.
Encouraging investment, strengthening our economic system and broadening our trade destinations will allow collective growth of our country and its citizens. Nationalizing private assets would destabilize the entire country. We get enough chaos from our south.
That is an odd logic. Only people who spend every day of their working lives here should be seriously considered vs. He did his job so well a country twice our size hired him to do the same work, and he's brought that global expertise back home.
Proud to have Carney as our new PM. The room went crazy when they announced the results! It was very exciting to be there. The Liberal party is united behind him. π¨π¦πͺ
Something to look forward to while we face the threats from the south. So much energy in that room. Eating chicken tenders and fries and drinking Canadian wine. Life is great today β€οΈπ¨π¦πͺ
AMERICAN INSANITY: Trump doubles down on taking over Canada & saying his tariffs are tax reductions for Americans. "Batshit Crazy," says former Senator Claire McCaskill. Is GOP Congress going to accept Batshit Crazy by association?
I confess, I seethe every time I hear Coyne and Althia speak. They want Carney to "emote" and be a rock star leader. Why are the standards so high for the Liberal leader? Why don't they expect the same from Poilievre? He is the WORST CPC leader ever.
Maximum 5 years, normally four, and since the prime minister serves βat His Majestyβs pleasureβ thereβs no limit to how many terms may be served
Technically we donβt do terms. Government is formed by the party that gets the most votes federally during an election. The leader of that party becomes the Prime Minister. The party leader is chosen by registered party supporters.
Plus other stuff since we still have ties to the British monarchy π€
Currently the Liberals hold power as a minority government. They donβt have the ability to govern without the support of another party (the NDP in this case). Our scheduled election federally is for the Fall, but an early one can be called either by choice of the Libs or by the NDP removing support.
That still sound infinitely less infuriating than US politics. It's a bunch of holdover crap from pre-slavery times and we're all too dumb to get rid of it.
Sadly we are still under a First Past the Post when it comes to counting our votes and Iβm a firm supporter of a Proportional Representation system. Thereβs always room for improvement. π€
Hopefully Trump has scared the shit out of right leaning Canadians. This shit show south of your border is growing more dangerous by the day. I suggest you spend more on defense starting yesterday.
Our house in Washington, DC today. God bless you, Canada. You are the best friends our nation ever had. There is not a Democrat in the land that does not stand with you.

Trump is more corrupt than Nixon, more incompetent than Bush II, and the worst economic policies since Hoover.
He's betrayed our allies, infatuated with our adversaries,
Trump has no resistance to Putin, and Putin knows it.π₯°

Using election fraud & insurrection.

Also Canadians: if we elect a Goldman and Sachs banker as a prime minister?
Good choice!
Iβm truly sad and sorry to see Trudeau go. What a 9 years it has been π«Άπ¨π¦
