At least two networks have declared the Liberals to have won the federal
election. It's not clear yet if they'll get a majority yet; we'll have a
much better idea about that tomorrow (or in the wee hours tonight if you

Yep. Your voters seem to share the same bizarre Helsinki Syndrome that
California voters exhibit, where they reward their abusers with re-election.

Even after the liberal government froze the bank accounts of (actually)
peaceful protesters, arrested journalists in the streets, trampled old ladies
with horses, disarmed the entire population, effectively banned independent
journalists from posting their content on social media platforms, started
pushing for more and more citizens to kill themselves as a solution to life's
normal problems, firmly (and openly) established a 2-tier legal system where
native Canadians can be arrested and jailed for things that migrants (both
legal and illegal) are allowed to say and do with impunity, and declared
martial law over a bunch of truckers whose sole offense was that they didn't
want to be forced to take an experimental medical treatment...

...Canadidians saw all of those things and said, "Yep, give us more of that,
plus a shit-ton more taxes so the weather won't change."

As John Carter said in his election post-mortem:

     Have you ever noticed how election results are regularly broken
     down geographically as well as by demographic categories of age,
     sex, and-- depending on the country-- race, yet we almost never
     see the results separated out based on tax-payer vs tax-eater status?

     It is absolutely no surprise that Ottawa voted solidly for the Liberal
     Party, whose base consists of three primary groups: migrants, public
     sector employees, and baby boomers, all of whom are regime client
     groups, and all of whom are tightly packed into the nation's capital.

     Perhaps it's that it's tax season and I'm in a grumpy mood because I
     just got the bad news, but I can't help but wonder about how electoral
     politics would change if taxpayers alone were allowed to vote.

Here's a chart that shows the most important factors upon which Canadidians
base their vote, broken out by age.

Notice how for people under 44, reducing the cost of living is their top
consideration when deciding to cast their vote. But for those 60 and over,
their *top* issue facing their country is "dealing with Donald Trump".

In other words, Canadidian seniors are, by and large, not even pretending to
be interested in the affairs and issues facing their own country. They don't
seem to be concerned about the fact that young people are overdosing in
ever-increasing rates or that a not insignificant number of them are well into
their 30s, crammed into tiny apartments, shared with roommates just to make
ends meet.

What they care about instead is "dealing with Donald Trump", an elected
official in a different country who has not caused a single ounce of the
misery that Canadia has been enduring for the last decade or more. And what do
they mean by "dealing with him"? Are they trying to elect globalists that will
send equally mean tweets back at Trump when he launches his 3AM toilet
missives?

It's a sobering realization, but it's true: Countries like the UK, Australia,
and Canadia, who have been traditionally allied with us through our shared
culture and values are moving farther and farther away from that benchmark
with us. No longer do any of these countries have a functioning conservative
movement.

With every election that takes place in Canadia and every humiliating hearing
on the dangers of white supremacy that Parliament entertains while muezzins
literally wail away on loudspeakers right across the street and traffic is
brought to gridlock five times a day by thousands of Muslims kneeling in
prayer in the middle of the road, the truth becomes more clear by the day and
it's time to admit it: the future of conservatism and thus of Western
civilization is in our hands and, increasingly, our hands alone.
