Hi everyone. Here’s my take on what happened in this recent election. If you notice my last post, I spoke about Pierre Poilievre and the Homerun he hit during the debate. I honestly believe that to be True. It was seen by millions of Canadians, you could honestly see Mark Carney’s reaction to the answer which he regretted asking (you could see him wave his hand like he was thinking, “Okay that’s enough”), He obviously realized it was a mistake afterwards. That to me was a homerun. As I said, It was seen by millions. The next day the early election voting was going to begin. And it did in ernest with over 2 million people voting early. In my riding, (Hamilton-Centre) I voted on Saturday. There wasn’t a big lineup, but I found out the day before that there was a huge lineup for voting which he said took over an hour. I looked at Andrew Chang’s youtube video on pre-election voting and he made two points. First, he said that even though these voting cards were done first, it doesn’t mean they were counted first. They were not counted until after the election results on April 28th.

I might agree with that.

But not on the second point. And that is that most people who voted early, voted liberal. NOPE! NO WAY! It’s think it’s natural when you’ve already made up your mind on something, you’ll get it done and over with. So I think most people voted Conservative more than liberal. And that Pierre Poilievre hit a homerun during the Debate. The result was that lots and lots of Canadians, voted for the Conservatives afterwards. That’s my opinion. And I seriously doubt that most people voted liberal after seeing Mark Carney in that Debate.

That would be like getting a promotion at work, so now I’m going to quit my job.

I looked specifically at two Toronto ridings. (Toronto-St. Paul’s) was lost. The MP was Don Stewart who lost to the liberal Candidate Leslie Church. Don Stewart won this in the bi-election last year. It was won by the Conservatives because of Trudeau whose popularity was so low at the time. It obviously changed under Mark Carney. The other riding is Don Valley North. This is the riding where there’s believed to be foreign interference. From China. liberal MP Paul Chiang resigned over comments he made about the Conservtive Candidate Joe Tay. He suggested that Joseph Tay be arrested and that he can collect a bounty for capturing him. Not good. The RCMP are investigating. I find it weird that with all this controversy, voters didn’t look down on the liberals and vote Conservative instead.

But this isn’t proof that there was foreign interference. Not enough. Maggie Chi, lib. won. 25,826, Joe Tay Con. 20,546. I don’t call this an overwhelming defeat. She won by just over five thousand votes. Maybe it’s a win because the race was closer this time. But I want us to pay attention to what we should be doing for next time.

I honestly thought the Conservatives would win this time around.

But, we didn’t. And I think it was mostly because of Toronto and GTA. During election night, I couldn’t stand to see all that Toronto area turn red. That’s twenty-five seats! If the liberals win there time and time again, they only need another 25-30 seats to win pretty much in Ontario. And that gives them another mandate.

You have to win in Toronto if you’re going to win a mandate from the people.

From now on, when I volunteer I won’t bother working with the Conservative Candidate where I live, I’ll work in Toronto in ridings like St. Paul’s and Scarborough Centre. I think there’s lots of people living there who vote liberal because they work at Government Jobs. And a Conservative Government will only take away their jobs in the future. And so I think Conservatives need to address these kinds of things. I don’t think Liberal MP’s based in Toronto do much to earn their keep. Salma Zahid (Scarborough Centre) comes to mind. She beat out Conservative MP Roxanne James in 2015. Since then, I’ve never seen her address Parliament, I’ve never seen any change or improvement in her riding. No infrastructure, nothing built. She doesn’t look like a strong woman who can get things done. Maybe I’m wrong, but a Conservative MP can make a better difference I think. There’s lots more I can say, but the bottom line is for these Conservatives to win, they need to work to get some seats in Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Pickering, Ajax, Whitby.

A lot of these residents travel deep into the heart of Toronto to go to their Government Jobs.

Their jobs should be kept safe. And we need to address the media. But the liberals have done everything to exploit the media to their own advantage. So much so if Conservatives did something to cut them back, the liberals would complain. We shouldn’t change though. We, the public have a very low opinion of the media. And also, I think Toronto is probably where you get the most media influence more than anywhere else. Toronto Star which is obviously liberal supporting, Globe & Mail but they can very good to read as well. They ARE in business to make money. They were the newspaper that broke the story of Jody Wilson Raybould and Jane Philpott. They sold a million more newspapers because of that. Toronto Star would’ve just sat on the story.

I mean what’s a few million dollars these days?

I’m my line of work, the Company puts an emphesis on working safely. Their slogan is, “We do not compromise on Safety.” Okay, I can go with that. But it’s a natural hazard for a crew to work with a three people instead of four. My point is they could’ve broke that story, but didn’t because they’re a liberal supporting newspaper who won’t compromise on a liberal Government. There goes those millions of dollars out the window. You should hold that liberal Government to account. These liberals have never won a Majority since then. That should be enough. I don’t have an additonal piece for you to read. I just hope you had a nice time reading this. God bless you.
