Yeah it was a close election. We absolutely did not reject Trump with any consensus. There's not as much to celebrate people think.
What people don't know is the Conservatives here have had a revolving door of leaders in search of a Trump-like candidate. The past several election cycles have been this way. The party has sold their soul to MAGA style politics a long time ago.
They just had the best showing ever in this election even though it was a loss. And this is with the best Trump wannabe candidate they've managed to field thus far. A belligerent authoritarian-like tyrant with zero shame. They are not going to stop this any more than the Republicans would to turn back from Trump. They may even keep the current guy even though he lost his own seat.
Canada will inevitably elect a conservative government. It's a defacto two party system. It will all go to hell. Especially if MAGA is still ruling America at the same time.
