Not only did the gun grab cost excessively more than they claimed... they have effectively destroyed a multi-billion $ industry in Canada...

All for what? Oh right... Quebec Votes.

Don't forget to thank the people in this sub who still defend voting Liberal.

You don't see to many of them.

If anything, thank the people in this sub who voted PPC in the previous election - without splitting the right, we would have had a Conservative government in that session, and none of this shit would have happened.

Max Bernier did as much damage here as Trudeau.

Or perhaps lay the blame where it should sit. Pierre is incompatible with winning. The rhetoric he brings is simply incompatible with a majority of voters, to the point where NDP voters and others actually defers to the libs.

The conservative have the same issue the PQ has. The stronger they hold the more extreme positions to please the base, the further they get from winning the election.

There is no guarantee pp would change a thing.

Although I completely agree with you that PP has lost all touch with reality... the PPC split still caused that loss.

They had ZERO chance of winning... It wasn't about them winning, it was about PC's losing, and it worked.

The PPC has the most batshit crazy ideas.

So if someone goes to the extreme and steal your votes you either have the choice of doubling down and fight for those 10,000 votes while loosing 100,000's + center leaning voters or just walk away from the fringe and appeal the center. Guess who did that and won.

Funny thing too, is Maxime Bernier if you swap the B for D it means last :)
