If it was the other way around he'd never let Carney hear the end of it - "Carney, the guy who had to get someone else to quit in order to keep his seat".

Politicians gonna politics, no surprise there.

He already didn't let Carney hear the end of it - "Carney, who was not elected..."

milhouse is a fucking snake and a con-artist.

Are there not residency requirements?

My riding decided to elect someone who lives two cities away, so I guess not at the local level at least

Man that seems so Twisted to me. How can you represent people you don't spend any time around? How can you claim to know their needs if you don't even live among them?

that was predictable

Imagine if he fails to be elected again in the partials

[-] funkajunk@lemm.ee 6 points 2 months ago

He'll win, the only reason he's coming to Alberta is because it's a slam dunk.

82% in favour of conservatives during the last election but Carney can wait 6 months to launch the by-election, that might be long enough to piss off some conservatives that might want to get rid of PP.

Is it within parliamentary procedure to address him as the former member from Ottawa-Carleton?

American here. Can someone explain why Carney won't be seeking NDP support?

[-] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago

To form an alliance you mean? The Bloc Quebecois already said they'll be quiet for the next year as there's lots to do, having two parties to work with means you don't necessarily need to always bend the same way so it's advantageous to leave the door open to sometimes compromise left and sometimes compromise in favour of what Quebec wants...

Political parties should just standby the morals and principles they try to uphold.

If they align together, great they can both vote yes. If they don't then they don't. Pandering to other parties to get their vote just gets in the way of what you are actually trying to achieve.

That's my take anyways

Nobody respects you Milhouse

Appalling, craven, cowardly, and pathetic hubris on the part of PeePee and conservative sycophants. A deep shame on rural Alberta for being such uncritical lemmings.

[-] Tiger666@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

They haven't voted yet. I, for one, am not holding my breath, but maybe there will be a silver lining of hope that he doesn't get elected, especially if an independent runs against him. Now, to get the independent candidate riled up and in place. I have a vivid imagination. Lol

[-] CircaV@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

They are going to simp so hard for him. But I hope Maxime Bernier (PPC) runs as well as Blake Desjarlais (NDP) and the Longest Ballot as well. But I have zero faith in rural Albertans who have been mainlining right-wing apologia for decades.

Nothing says democracy like ignoring the will of the people.

That was quicker than I expected.
