For days, True North has been asking questions of the Liberal campaign about a message in the 2001 West Point Grey Academy (WPGA) yearbook that may suggest a relationship outside the classroom between Justin Trudeau, his former roommate and convicted sex offender Christopher Ingvaldson and a female Grade 12 student at the school.

our media is 90% orange man bad .they use it as a way to minimize what trudeau has been doing or not doing. most people could tell you all about everything that trump has done in the last 3 year but have no idea what the snc lavalian scandal is about. canadian cable tv in general is a mix of canadian and american channels. here we get cbc.global.and ctv but nbc,fox cbs,abc etc are washington state channels.plus in general canadian politics are usually super boring and nothing really ever happens.before trudeau started falling apart one of our biggest scandals was bev oda paying 14 dollars for a glass of orange juice on her expense account
Lol at the orange juice. That actually sold me enough to give this thread a try. eventually. It's interesting that there's that much coverage of US politics. What was that coverage like prior to 2017?

it has really always been like that even back in the bush and obama years . it wasnt orange man bad style coverage but american content has always been a huge part of our news . the CRTC actually has a canadian content quota that makes sure that a certain percentage of our media stays canadian but the govt cut it from 55% to zero in the daytime and prime time is at 50%

In a somewhat cryptic press release, the Conservative Party of Canada says one of their candidates will make an announcement about “Justin Trudeau’s past behaviour.”

Here’s what they said:

“Ahead of tonight’s debate, a Conservative Party of Canada candidate will make an important statement about Justin Trudeau’s past behaviour.”

The announcement will be streamed on the Conservative Party facebook page at 3:30 eastern time:

Conservative Party of Canada - Parti conservateur du Canada

The Libs are doing better in the polls since the last time I cared to check (admittedly about a month ago)

it is possible to win majority with toronto ,vancouver and quebec .in all likelyhood there will be a minority govt one way or the other leading to either a coalition or a vote of nonconfidence and a new election withing 18 months

i would question the polls saying the libs are leading by that much . i think jagmeet has done well enough to steal a lot of left wing voters away from the liberals and trudeau does not have the same celebrity status he had during the last election. a lot of the trudeau mania voters will stay home this time. legalization has by and large been a money loser and a flop .he will always have the liberal loyal but i think his base would be much lower after all the shit that has gone on in the last few years and over the last couple months. the polls are probably pretty close but more of a 3 way race between libs, ndp and cpc

The NDP is definitely trending higher than they were previously. Any chance of a coalition between them and the Liberals if the Libs fail to win a majority?

the ndp has been backing up the libs in the house of commons for the last few years .it is also possible to form a coalition with the bloc if they win enough seats in quebec .there is a lot of bickering going on right now between ndp and green over if they are willing to form a coalition with anyone . they wont say until after the election because they would have to sell out their base on some issues

im not really buying trudeau @ 33% he won the 2015 at the height of his popularity with 35% of the vote. there is no way he has retained almost all of his voters from last election.

he will always have that super cucked laurentian liberal voter but he has pissed off the wamens when they were his biggest fans last time. pissed off the indians and shit on them for the last 4 years.most of the youth vote will be rather apathetic this time around. the 2019 campaign has been anything but hip or cool. pissed off the entire prairie provinces . the maritimes still love him. he will get toronto and parts of vancouver and part of quebec. i am thinking the election map will be a lot more blue and orange than last time
