Surely Doug Ford deserves a dishonourable mention. Bike lanes are getting systematically removed ffs

And corruption scandals, totally effective 'buck a beer', a ridiculous tunnel. Its astonishing that the people of Ontario could be worse off.
His right-wing populism and PR dollars are extremely good at getting him re-elected. Ontarians continue to fall for it and blame all of his failures on Trudeau while forgiving his scandals and blatant corruption.
Well, one is a traitor. Plain and simple.
Genuinely surprised Smith is that low. Like, if it took into account how people nationally felt about Smith I'd see this as expected, but the Angus Reid poll referenced seems to be based on the approval ratings of the premiers by their constituents.
I swear not long back Smith had a 60% approval rating here, which is absurd to think about as expected as it is. Wonder if the podcast surfacing pissed people off.
I think the sentiment of "just let PP take office and then we can help you fuck us over" really irked people for some reason.
The longer she stays, the more crap she does and says, the harder for people to justify this nutcase. And the US threats have even hardcore conservatives’ neck hair up. They don’t trust her not to sell us out. I believe a very, VERY small group actually wants to join the US.
Insert surprised pikachu meme here.
You can be unpopular and still be democratically elected. That's so awful. Gotta fix voter apathy.
→ proportional representation mitigates voter apathy and also greatly mitigates polarization and strategic voting
I'm happy to heap scorn on my province's weenie premier for his constant folding to regressive bullies and wealthy lobbies, but I gotta admit that he's got nothing on Smith, Legault, Moe, Ford, or Houston.
This country's had some real shithead premiers in its history but it really does feel like a race to the bottom these days.
I don't understand why Legault is on the list?
As a quebecer, because he's a demagogue populist asshole and an awful administrator who's currently stuck in a couple of mismanagement scandals. Plus he keeps fucking up Montreal with each new budget and I'm not even gonna start on the religious laws...
He only managed to get elected because the local liberals were in shambles and the Parti Quebecois has lost itself and its appeal when QS came in. He is a symbol of the aging voter base and at least he's stable in his bullshit I guess...
Thing is, he's not an idiot and has been skirting the line of acceptability for the longest time but now it seems the karmic balance is finally bringing back the shit he threw back at him
Wow. When's Quebec's next election?
Next year but as of right now, it would be the PQ and honestly with time, they've become more and more like a CAQ 2. The only thing is that their leadership seems a bit more sane... I'm not convinced but I haven't been paying that much attention since the focus has been on the south...
Thanks for the info. Really appreciate it.
