You do realize that the guy in the top right behind the microphone is Jagmeet Singh, the leader of a totally different party than Prime Minister Trudeau leads, eh

I would have added Doug Ford to Team Trudeau but have not found a picture of him in a grey sweater - yet.

They're going to give the crown to Carney anyway they have to.

Crown? We live under a parliamentary democracy modelled on the British system, not the American one. Under the rules, the party decides who its leader is. And the person who wins this particular contest? I'll put my money on the person ending up the scapegoat who leads the liberals to inevitable electoral disaster, then is turfed from the leadership for losing the election.

Kings throughout history have had a habit of losing their head ... if in power your friends all have envy and thus CON sequence as the thing goes!

With loss of head ... exposure of red necks! Thoughts have departed ... and question remains where do prodigal psyche qualities go ... if you have a clue write it down as alien hist*oire ...

What's an OI're? One of those dead Ayes! It is a sea going term ... like Shanghai ... shanked! You could get rode off ... dispatched, or otherwise eliminated ... because at the base .. folk hate themselves for reason unexplained ... shee Mph ule ... with the silent "ph" we end up with M 'Ule! It plods ...

An "n" doubled up is like Meme ... a sign of something else is coming ... then the צלן which is simply ET in Hebrew but occurs in a great spectre in the forest ... there you may not see because of the surrounding substance ... the nun or ן is critical ... as it doesn't translate well ... thus gaps in understanding ...

RL Stevenson as a manufacturer of engines ... was familiar with the head 'ves teams ... and once up they're off in the dash headed for god knows where ... some small place? Progressive Conservatives ... a conflicting exponent ... as can one proceed if in total restriction? Something has got to give ... thus fireballs ... extravaganzas when wheels turn against the order! Like the circle of the compass and the four points thereof ... in cases there is often polarization as collaboration is out of the picture ... smudged Ima jinn as is ... wee essence on it sway! It'll sink in later ... requires time ... AD image ...

Depends on what went on ah -4 ... the independent declares he did it all himself and thus is all screwed up and entangled ... TU' Aris ... Aye to Aye ... an essence is produced as semi tic causing some resistance ... as Emi tight pair ...

Who's Emi ? That's another matter ... and often we don't differentiate from one matter to the immaterial ... as hot in the dark ... because we prefer stupid ... Bourn her all stopped in fetal position ... in Celt regions that'd be bairn ... kind 've stripped down version ... frightening appearance ...

What do you do with them? There are indications and signs ... pay attention to the yowls ...de mands? If denied totally you get totalitarians ...

Feed them mush see if they develop a taste ... not TU M uch ? They can become eternally dependant ... and return little ... although there are alternatives as exceptional ... another turn?

Speaking of the guy in the top right behind the microphone, I've been following him (and Trudeau and Poilievere) on Instagram. I'm beginning to like what he has to say and could potentially vote for him

Yeah, that's kind of my bet right now, too. I was actually a bit surprised at Carney stepping in given this is likely to be a John Turner/Kim Campbell situation. It could be argued that the better move would be to wait until the new leader loses the election and then step up to replace them (i.e. be Jean Chretien instead of John Turner). Though with the blame for the Liberals losing being pretty squarely put on Trudeau even before the election is called, the new leader can probably survive losing if they play their cards right. Also, note that the polls seem to have stabilized and the Liberals have even crept up a tiny bit. At least, they aren't melting down any more.

Which, imo, why the CPC machine is doing everything they can to link Trudeau to whoever wins the leadership. THey REALLY want to run against Trudeau.
 
He has little good to offer. What he is offering has a high risk of being disastrous for ordinary Canadians which is why Ford was desperate to have an election before he could become prime minister.

No, not really. He seems determined to win on beating Trudeau and if a new Liberal leader can turn the party's direction enough, that could blow up in his face. And there's always the so-con minefield that go off on him, too, e.g. some so-con candidate spouting off about using a Conservative majority to re-open abortion rights. Which then allows the Libs to do their "hidden agenda" routine again.
 
If all else fails ... blame the other guy ... are there alternate guise ... cover stuff?

From there it gets complex ... many regrets to the simple, loaded down with emotional irrationality ...
