To my surprise, after less than four years in power, the liberals are falling. I’m surprised because liberal governments usually last for longer than this. The last term for the liberals was from 1993 to 2006. Jean Chretien and Paul Martin. Before that it was John Turner and Pierre Trudeau who was the PM twice. I think. Throughout my life we’ve had more liberal governments than Conservatives. One reason for the change is this:
The Conservatives are a stronger political party than before.
They are a viable alternative to the Trudeau liberals. Here’s the latest poll. The question: If an election were held today, who would you vote for? 43% for Conservative, 34% for the liberals. You should note that the other political parties are not close. And I’m being firm on that because I’ve been seeing it for a while. This is a two man race. Not three our four, like the NDP, Greens, or Bloq in Quebec. Maxime Bernier won’t have an impact either. Not this time. What should be noted is that the Conservatives have a strong and steady lead. Which can increase as we get closer to the election. And, when questioned about who would make the best PM, it was a virtual tie between Andrew Scheer and Justin Trudeau. But, it will only get better. The poll also asked the question, Is the Country was doing better than four years ago, 47% said yes. Broken down it said 88% of Conservative voters said it was doing worse, while 86% of liberal voters said it was doing better.
There is one thing. Polls don’t worry liberals or politicians in general. And the liberals don’t seem to be worried about this one either. It’s not like Kathleen Wynne and the Ontario liberals. But it may be that the liberals are Confident going into the next election, October 2019. I think it’s necessary that Justin Trudeau shows himself as a leader who gets things done. That, I think is all he has to concentrate on. If he can do that, such as getting that pipeline built between Alberta and B.C. Handling the Trade Agreement with Donald Trump and United States, and the tremendous amount of migrants coming in from U.S. into Ontario and Quebec, he should be the Prime Minister for years to come. These are the things that Canadians are paying attention to. And so should he. If he concentrates on them, nothing else should matter. But if he doesn’t, and we still have people crossing over our border, it means he doesn’t have a plan. And to which I’m sure Andrew Scheer and the Conservatives do. Trudeau will be paying a price, a political one in the next election. And it may be felt in vote rich Ontario and Quebec.
