I’m Canadian and we have our own issues with far right nutjobs but I’ve heard the phrase “Project 2025” thrown around and the little I’ve seen about it frightens me. I don’t follow the news for the sake my mental health but could someone explain it in depth? What kind of a shit show are we looking at? Unfortunately Canadian politics would probably follow because of the huge cultural influence the US has.

    I’m like you OP, a fellow Canadian

    And we should be worried… We are governed by children and, as such, the company they keep is extremely influential

    We are about to elect a PM who has never had a real job outside of government and, somehow, has no political record to speak off.

    PP has been leader of the opposition for years now and still has not proposed anything, shown any solution, discussed any alternate path to improve anything.

    Like Trump, all he does is lie to the camera and play victim

      Ah fuck, I haven’t been paying attention. Trudeau fucked it that badly that Poilevre is tipped to win?!

        Pretty much… Trudeau has been the embodiment of mediocrity but then PP and whatever forces turned that into a meme

            Absolutely… I’ve already reshaped my budget the best I can to brace for the next 4 years…

            If we are lucky he’ll only get a minority but doubt it
