Doug Ford's PCs are an arm of the federal Liberals. It's time for the New Blue Party of Ontario. #onpoli

@MBrant75 It's like people care more about their political team/side wining and don't really care about the league/country prospering.

Canada has a bad case of treating politics like a hockey game. I just want less corruption, low taxes, public safety, high trust communities, personal freedoms & prosperity… Provide that, and I don’t care which “team” wins.

@WSOnlineNews She isn't the example to use for the point you're trying to make even though I do agree with the sentiment. Michel MA would be the one that should never have gotten passed the "sniff test". Imo.

HANNAFORD: Does the Conservative Party even take a candidate's pulse? westernstandard.news/opinion/hannaf…

Marilyn Gladu's first Q as a Liberal. For 10 years she stood up for her constituents. Now she asks lob balls to a junior minister.

@M_Johnston1 Please... What policy did they not like from the conservatives that would negatively effect their riding? What policy did they like from the Liberals that would positively effect their riding? All they said was a bunch of word salad. These were obviously selfish decisions.

The Liberals didn’t lure Conservatives to their side of the House w promises of Cabinet posts. They all left of their own accord. Poilievre needs to ask himself why, and try to address that before others leave too. 8 are said to be considering it.

@KirkLubimov Pretty standard turn out for a party that isn't going to win in a by-election.

The story of the by-elections was a total COLLAPSE of Conservative voters❗️ University-Rosedale Went from 14,624 to 3,843 Scarborough Southwest Went from 16,652 to 5,300 Terrebonne Went from 10,961 to 1,551 Where did Conservative voters go? This is alarming for the CPC.

@johnrackham82 Too many retards here.

Dear Canada, The American People love and cherish you. What we don't like is your Prime Minister bad mouthing us while he and his family live in, study in, work in, own in, and profit from the United States. Get rid of this globalist turd.

@BagelPolling Like I said, very weak argument.

@SLester48896 Because some Quebec voters dislike the BQ more than they dislike the LPC.

The night is young but so far it looks like the polls are correct, at least in Ontario. Huge swing away from the CPC.

@BagelPolling Of course, and the strategy would've been to vote bloc not split between them and LBC. But that didn't happen. Why would a cpc voter vote for both the bloc and the lbc. This is such a weak argument... Yes, yes, yes nuance... That's it..

@SLester48896 Have you ever heard of strategic voting? Have you considered voters are actually complicated individuals who make real choices?

@BagelPolling Like I said she had a conservative platform so unlikely. Also, don't change the goal posts to Terrebonne. The cpc vote collapsed there too and the bloc didn't reap the benefits. Don't tell me you think they would've voted for the LBC in Quebec... That's nonsense. Same pattern.

@SLester48896 Like I said they very likely voted Critchley. Just like in Terrebonne a lot of CPC voters voted for BQ/LPC to stop the other from winning.

@DannyInTheNorth @sarobertsonca I just say shit too sometimes.

@sarobertsonca That dude Mario Zelaya is such a fraud.

CTV Deception Decoded segment debunks misinformation about the supposed risks of voting with a pencil

@sarobertsonca Still waiting for the debunk...

@BagelPolling So you're saying when the Liberal vote collapsed in Battle River-Crowfoot by election, that was a HUGE swing away from the Liberals? Because that would be foolish too.

@SLester48896 I am taking the exact same position on by elections that I always take.

@BagelPolling Ok, if that's what you need to tell yourself. The numbers don't care. I usually agree with your takes, but not here.

@SLester48896 You are.

@BagelPolling Toronto by-elections (safe Lib): Libs rose +8.4 pts in Scarborough SW & held steady in U-Rosedale, while CPC dropped ~12 pts both times & NDP gained. Same dynamic, flipped colors. Low turnout proves nothing about CPC apathy. Who's coping?

@BagelPolling By-elections in safe seats aren't litmus tests. Battle River-Crowfoot (safe CPC): Poilievre held ~81%, Libs collapsed 11.7% → 4.1%. Critchley (conservative platform) took 9.8% mostly from CPC voters.

@BagelPolling That's cope. Liberal vote didn't shift to Critchley. In the general they got 11.7, in the by-election 4.1%. Even if every Liberal voter went to her, it still wouldn't explain her 9.8%. She mostly took disgruntled CPC votes. The Liberal vote didn't flip, it vanished with turnout.

@SLester48896 The Liberal vote consolidated around the independent lady.

@ShawnPetriw @acoyne Harper

@acoyne Show me an economist who can regularly make accurate economic predictions and I’ll show you someone well-educated. But you won’t be able to. Voodoo degree.

This is an ill-advised line of attack.

@BagelPolling Its no different than what happened in the by-election in Battle River-Crowfoot. Pierre got almost the same as the former MP in the general election, while the liberal vote collapsed in the by-election with a much lower turn out. Did you come to the same conclusion then?

@SLester48896 Thats cope.
