Thanks for replying and attaching a link, much appreciated. I would take this with a grain of salt, the Daily Express is a tabloid and not exactly known for journalistic integrity🌸

I can’t find a legitimate news source reporting on this. The quote this points to looks like an X post quoting a WSJ article but I’m unable to find that article. Do you have any further links?

Exactly. I’m a lefty ABC voter but it’s ridiculous to assume he may not win the by-election & still be leader. He’s going to win the seat & be back in the HOC in a few months. It would cost taxpayers to move him in/out. Also there’s precedent for letting them stay. It’s not a fight worth having.

I agree with you @rachelgilmore.bsky.social I’m appalled by some of these responses. I loathe PP but he’s going to be re-elected in a short time & move back in anyway. There’s precedence for letting him stay in the meantime from what I’ve read. I get we all wish he wouldn’t come back but he will :-(

The riding he’s been handed to run in voted 82% for the Cons. It’s mathematically impossible for him to lose the by-election. It’s the third safest riding in the country.

It looks like in this riding the smart strategic vote is Green. Strategic voting doesn’t always mean Liberal. In some ridings the smart strategic vote to keep out the conservatives is NDP or Green🙂🇨🇦💪🏻

The Star isn’t right-leaning & they have always endorsed Liberals since 1922 with 4 exceptions - Cons 2 times & NDP 2 times.

Agreed. Whether the Liberals win a majority or (large?) minority, the NDP will be looking for a new leader/direction. The Conservatives need a reckoning. Canadians don’t want the far-right ideology they seem to be keen on importing from the US - aside from 25% of his base. It’ll be interesting! :-)

Oh no worries! Now if the Globe & Mail endorsed a Liberal I’d fall off my chair :-)

A lot of Canadians don’t want the far-right populism PP is offering (his proposals during the election prove he wants to take us even further right). People on left are voting strategically & “loaning” their votes to the Liberals to stop him this one time. They’ll go home to NDP/Green/Bloc next time

In the 50 years to 1972, the Star endorsed the Liberal Party in each federal general election. In the fifteen federal elections between 1968 and 2019, the Star has endorsed the Liberal Party eleven times, the New Democratic Party twice, and the Progressive Conservative Party twice. (Wikipedia)

No worries! I haven’t had my coffee yet either. I was surprised to say the least to see the G & M endorsing Carney & went looking for it. Lol. 🇨🇦💪🏻

This isn’t in the G & M, it’s The Star editorial board. The paragraph you’ve quoted is at the end. The G & M editorial board leans Poilievre.

Star Editorial Board: In a time of crisis, Mark Carney is the steady hand Canada needs
He has the best plan and the best resumé — and his Liberals are the strongest team.

Exactly. Journalists trying to spin this into a scandal are being dishonest here. Canadians deserve to be better served by our legacy media than this type of “reporting”. Constant spin and gotchas. It’s disgusting and exhausting.

Exactly. Bruce Arthur is saying Carney is dishonest. Journalists trying to spin it into a scandal are dishonest! It’s disgusting.

I disagree. Trump says a lot of things (verbal diarrhea) & Carney was firm against any 51st state comments in the call. After, Trump was more respectful. Journalists trying to spin this into a scandal is what’s dishonest. It’s literally a nothing-burger & I’m tired of these “gotcha” articles.
