No, it’s not. Hopefully a red-Tory party will emerge from the ashes.

Great post and thanks for this. Very good points made — all governments need functioning oppositions. I value my ability to debate with progressive Cons in my family; ultimately we want the same thing, we just disagree on how to get there.

Cons still winning at least 125 seats. Still have 37% of the vote. It is still neck and neck.

Won’t be a blue wave, but a blue ripple.

I think Smith's adulation of rump and maga will keep turning off voters.

The issue is that while a vacuum of representation on the right gives room for more & more fringe contingents to move in, like what happened after the collapse of the PCs, Pierre Poilievre is not a serious contender. Today's gnarled monster of the Conservatives has to self-immolate and start again.

You're so good at this stuff, bud. Love your videos

Leaves a chance for an actually fiscally Conservative Party that care about people to take the mantle, we haven’t had one of those since Reformers stole the name in 2003.

If they're imploding under the weight of internal fascism, I say good. We don't need a party like that as opposition. Heck, they haven't been that good of one this term, as a minority government was able to go about their business because the official opposition couldn't rally other parties ever.

They need to get back to being progressive and get rid of all the Reform Party/Canadian Alliance nuts.

How dare you? Leafs playoff run? This year is OUR YEAR!

Petey Polyester’s sole platform was to oust Trudeau. When he resigned, Skippy’s whole platform collapsed like a house of cards& he has floundered ever since. His ex-GF/campaign manager is a total MAGAt. &Skippy’s own family member is in🇨🇦illegally. Never worked except in govt- has $250k/yr pension!!

Proportional Representation might help… It would be less of an all or nothing scenario.

“Running the campaign like a college group project gone wrong” is the best line I’ve heard in a long time. Kudos, Mr. Maffin

Now THAT is the message the U.S. Dems need to understand!

I think that Carney, the grown-up in the room, will lead by example. He'll assess the situation for what it is and keep moving. He's a realist.

To be fair, it’s the Reform party that is imploding. Lots of people would vote for the Progressive Conservatives if they only existed.

thekjshepherd.bsky.social•9 days ago

👏🏽 the stench of the Reformers needs to be wiped clean from the Cons before I even think about trusting any of them.
