Frankly, given the Finlandization of Canada, a Conservative minority government, that depends on the votes of the Bloc to do anything is probably the best bet for Canada to survive the next four years of Trumpism. Trudeau definitely cannot lead, because Trump will never forgive him for making fun of him behind his back, and he's a petty shit like that. Then we need a Conservative PM, so that Trump would not feel the urge to bully too much, but with the Bloc holding the government's balls so the Conservative idiots don't do anything too crazy. They would give PP an alibi like «sorry oh dear leader Trumpy overlord I would love to pass a law requiring every trans person to wear a purple triangle but you see my internal politics are a mess and I have to keep Québec from separating». Ideally the cons would lose most provincial governments too, so that PP is weak as fuck. Basically, we just need PP to be our beard.
Trump hasn't liked Trudeau ever since the handshake.
In general I think having a majority government is awful so I do hope we continue to have a minority government.
While PP would indeed be a guard of sorts it'd still be great to have a non-cons PM.
Of course, PM Singh would be awesome but I suspect the bully to the south might make it a standing policy goal to fuck with us any chance he gets...
Isn't that his standard policy with everyone?
Just because the US is doing an "any% speed run collapse of Democracy" doesn't mean we should make worse choices for ourselves just because one person might be better at dealing with children.
I'm okay with our 'Governor' calling their President all sorts of subservient titles if it means the SOCON pieces-of-shit don't get a whiff of thinking they're important.
