    1. @Adamantium Scorpion immigrant complaining about immigration lol when your ancestors came, they too came from third-world countries. Doesn’t matter where you come from, matters what you bring to the table and do with the opportunities you have here. If you don’t like immigrants, kindly leave.

    2. I’m no fan of Trudeau, but at the same time I have a hard time thinking of what’s changed in my life because of him.

    3. Can’t his bill or whatever be rejected which results in another election? Plus, if I recall correctly minority governments only last about half the time on average.

    1. @Connor Hurdle-Jolly alrite, lets forget about the other 27.86% of the population that haven’t vote for liberals or conservatives

  1. Um, what a garbage segment. Did they not watch the election last night? If he was the leader to unify Canada then there wouldn’t have been a Minority government result… :/

    1. Did anyone here the first words out of Trudeaus mouth during his speech. If anyone needs to stop dividing Canadians Justin should go look in a mirror .

  2. “Alien-i-zation”
    Lmao

    Also, don’t forget Eastern BC also went blue. We’re with you guys in ‘Burta and Saskatchewan.

    1. They know he isn’t going to do anything and its what they are going to campaign on – if they have to they will threaten leaving Canada and blame it all on sock boy to get him voted out. That is what’s happening here and they certainly didn’t waste a second getting started on the campaign.

  3. In a word? No.

    By his own admission the last 4 years were him trying to be a unifying force, and the country ended up more divided than ever. Clearly he doesn’t know how to bring the country together, and that’s not likely to improve with him heading a minority situation after extremely regional results last night.

    1. @MBO MBO Many Canadian need guns to put food the the table. And hunting is the most humane source of meat you can get. Go watch a video on factory farming.

    1. Cuntservatives have massive bot servers to flood every video that talks about Trudeau both positively and negatively. CONservatives are known for malicious bot raids on leftist channels.

    2. No idea how he won, you should have seen the disgust at my workplace today and I work in an extremely diverse place. Middle east, India, Russia, Europe, Asia – all hate Trudeau. I would not be surprised if massive voter fraud had taken place last night.

    3. I know how he won in my city a university town, they had every student vote for them while the working taxpayers were thrown aside. No way would he ever have won in this city.

    4. The elections were not rigged. 55% of Canadians voted for some form of progressive gov’t. That’s more than the 30-something % who voted for conservatives. Unfortunately, it came down to strategic voting because our system does not allow for proportional representation. The majority of voters didn’t want Scheer. They wanted progressive policy, but had no choice but to settle for Trudeau. Canadians aren’t stupid. Don’t be so crass.

    1. @Matthew Fournier This is silly…. as an avid hunter and fisherman as well, you will not lose your guns. The liberals have been in power for what percentage of the last 50 years? How many times did they “come to take the guns”? It won’t happen, and there’s no Canadian political will or desire for it to happen.

    2. reduce cotwo
      Beyond divided
      Canada is finished with him in charge, when he’s done Canada will be trillions in debt

    3. No, a minority government must have the co-operation of another party or parties to form a voting coalition. To pass legislation a majority government in Canada must have 170 seats or 170 votes. Trudeau would need the NDP with 24 seats or votes to be able to pass any legislation or the Bloc’s 32 seats or votes as the Trudeau Liberals only have 157 seats or votes. So, Trudeau is kind of hamstrung as the party he is asking to vote with him will want other legislation passed that they want to be put into law. So if Trudeau wants to pass some sort of gun legislation he needs the cooperation of either the NDP or Bloc to pass a Bill. That Bill then goes to the Canadian Senate who examines the Bill for legalities and may make recommendations for changes in the Bill. Then when the Senate returns the Bill to the House of Commons the government can pass that bill into law. That is the problem with minority governments. The minority government has to make deals to get the legislation they want passed.

    4. @John R. No they will not take away a person’s registered hunting rifle but they can say we want restrictions on the type of rifle you own or ban handguns for those who they deem do not have proper use/need for them.

    5. @don684 Our handgun laws are nearly perfect. Handguns are purpose built primarily to kill humans, and almost no one in Canada owns one. Nailed it.

      It’s funny, I view it to be almost just like those crazy knives and swords and the like that you see sold at corner stores: You always think you want one and it’d be cool to have when you’re 15, but then you don’t want one at all by the time you’re 18 and able to buy one. Turns out the only way to check if you’re old enough to buy one is whether you actually want to buy one. Don’t want it? Available for sale. Want one? Sorry, you’re not mature enough for that decision.

  4. He’s had four years to unify Canada and has done more damage to Canadian unity than any previous Prime Minister.
