They sound so shocked about this. We knew what we were voting for. He's a Red Tory, of course he's mostly there for the rich. Specifically the rich who recognize Donald Trump is stark raving mad, which is a point in their favour, but if anyone was under the delusion he wasn't going to be mostly defending Canada's owner class at all costs, they weren't paying attention. Look, of the big national parties, only the NDP has any credible claim to actually care about the working class, and even they tend to get side-tracked looking for handouts to actually run a party with. CCP is about defending the slum-lords, the oil barons, the Canadian Epstein class, etc. Carney's Liberals are about the less openly predatory, but no less out of touch wealthy. We could not afford to let Poilievre win. As bad as I expect Carney to be (and he is not disappointing on that front) he's not going to sell us to Trump as slaves and that matters. There are worse things in the world than an ivory tower elitist, and I find it deeply frustrating that so many of my fellow working class peers seem to have forgotten that fact.
