Sorry for the trash National Post link, but hey...we should all feel very sad for Pierre. He's going to have to move out of Stornoway and start paying for housing now instead of getting it free from tax payers. nationalpost.com/news/politic...
Pierre Poilievre didn't just lose his seat. He also likely lost his home
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has lost his seat in Parliament, complicating earlier plans he announced to stay on as party leader.

being a medieval peasant was hard, but at least they didn’t have the news getting beamed into their skulls every hour of the day. if the Archbishop of Canterbury freezes to death while crossing the Alps, that’s for the king to worry about in six months.

It’s a beautiful thing to see people put aside their differences, their politics, and unite in their love of country.

Well done, Canada. 🇨🇦

Your citizens stood on guard for thee.

Jamie Dimon says the *best case* scenario for the US is now a recession.

Cool, cool. From the best economy in the world to a self-inflicted recession in 4 months.

Gotta be some kind of record.

One thing that I was thought was revealing about the divisions within Canada:

When Carney acknowledged Poilievre's hard work on his campaign in his victory speed, the crowd of Liberals cheered.

When Poilievre mentioned Carney in his concession speech, there was loud booing.

But we're going to have beautiful empty shelves and it's something I think you'll be seeing very soon. We won't be the country of clutter anymore. [doing accordion hands] it's called minimalism. Ok?

The true consequence of decades of near zero interest rates is now a bunch of glue eaters with the IQ of potted plants have become extremely wealthy and are going to use their influence to unravel the economy because they don't understand how a single thing works.

You know, I don’t think too many people know more about economics than me. Very few. And I probably know more about the stock market than anybody. Ever. I really get it. But it’s been very bad to us lately. Very unfair. So, I’m thinking tariffs. On the stock market. Never been done. So we’ll see.

My campaign has become a rudderless shambles, I keep demonstrating I'm not even remotely nimble where addressing new issues is concerned, and there's a tremendous amount of in-fighting amongst my team, but I can assure Canadians a Poilievre government will be nothing like my election campaign.

CPC staff: We can't keep going on about Trudeau and the carbon tax.

Pierre and Jenni: But Trudeau's the reason we lost the election in 2015!

Staff: Okay, but it's ten years later. Different issues. We have to pivot.

Pierre and Jenni: Get us our mid-day mimosas and get back to printing t-shirts!
