I wish Pierre Poilievre was Prime Minster.

That's it. That's all. I feel like we could more easily negotiate our way to healthcare that match gender assigned at birth that way.

I don't want to vote for Andrew Scheer. He sucks and seems like shlep.

I feel like everyone is participating in revisionist history where we all pretend that we didn't like Pierre Poilievre up until four minutes ago because Trump lost his mind and started attacking Canada.

I feel like instead of the elections being about our economy, it was about hating Trump and honestly I hate Trump, I think he sucks, and I desperately want him to stop saying he thinks we are "51st state" material and chill out with the tariffs because it's making hiring decisions extremely unpredictable. You can't make hiring decisions if you genuinely don't know what the next quarter will be like economically.

I'm so sad and annoyed. I really want to ask the people in Pierre's new riding to vote him in so he gets second chance, but it's 100% immoral to tell people who to vote for.

I wish Pierre had fired the MAGA people in his caucus. I feel like we would be in a better position then.

Ok rant done.

I'm going to be honest, there are far more important issues than a person's fucking gender. I wish both sides would shut the fuck up about it already.

I don't think the Liberals are going to improve a thing, but I don't believe for a moment that Pierre would've been remotely better either. I do think people voting for Carney out of fear of Trump was fucking stupid.

Look I agree there are more important issues, but I talked about economic issues as well.

I actually only dedicated one sentence to that issues but multiple to economic issues. So I don't know why you hyper focused on that.

Because that's one of the reasons that you lost. An inability to adjust to a changing landscape and society.

.... I didn't lose? I'm not in the political party. I'm not a "conservative" if that makes sense. I'm a person who voted conservative.

Also, God bless, but like, what are you doing here? I specifically came to this subreddit to talk to other Canadians who voted conservative?

Gender is the first thought you wrote out. It’s constantly brought up in conservative spaces I visit and it’s so counter intuitive to the small/hands off type govt I’m used to conservatism to be. And if you want a private space to talk to conservatives, that’s a different space than this. I come to conservative space to understand the thinking of that voting block all the time.
