Re: President Trump 2.0

This is quite something. A few months ago the Canadian liberal party, the current government, was something like 20 points behind the Conservatives led by Poilievre.

It was seen as a done deal the next government would be Conservative and Poilievre was the darling of the Western right for how successful he was being against the Liberals and their leader, Justin Trudeau.

They are currently changing their leader, with the Bank of England's very own Mark Carney being a candidate, and have just taken the lead for the first time in 4 years:

Some of this is probably Trudeau going but most of it appears to be a rebellion against Trump's sabre rattling towards Canada which has allowed Trudeau and the Liberals to rally against him in a way that Poilievre seems unable to do because of his association with 'the right'.

Obviously, it's early days and I think the polling will revert. The Conservatives are likely to win the next election albeit with a much smaller majority than expected. It's still an example of how Trump might disadvantage the right across the western world.
