    So do you personally know people who still support Trudeau?

      Yes. Of course.

      You can find supporters for any politician. I mean… Someone keeps sending Pierre money. There is no end to political dumbfuckery.

        Do you live in Ontario though?

        I live in BC, I have friends all across the political spectrum. Most of my friends including myself voted him in in the first place. The only thing Trudeau cares about in BC is his Tofino vacation home and everyone knows it.

        Pierre is only getting support because people are at the stage of “anyone but Trudeau”, and he’s sadly going to win because that’s how angry voters are right now

          I know quite a few people in BC who are in the stage of “anyone but Poilievre”, so they are technically still supporting Trudeau.

            I would hardly consider that supporting, that’s just voting as best you can in this broken system. Which Trudeau promised to fix and back pedalled

          I don’t live in Ontario but I do go there for donairs every few weeks. ;)

          I have lived in Quebec for the last two years. But I spent 20 years raising a family in AB and went to college in SK before moving there. My last non-quebec address was in Vernon BC. Every one of those places had supporters, nose-holding “the other ones are worse” voters, and haters, of all three major parties.

          I’m not trying to say that everyone I know is in love with the guy. That would be weird and uncomfortable. But I disagree that he is universally disliked.
