The oven has finished preheating for Poilievre’s goose.
Carney is indeed out-conservativing the Conservatives, but that’s happened before with the Chrétien government. So I think this is within the reasonable band of Liberal left-right political wobbling. Poilievre is kind of analogous to the 90’s Reform party of Canada, the wing of social conservatism seems to line up with Poilievre’s Maple MAGA Conservatives. The Liberals moving right is not an irreversible ratchet effect that I think some people here fear, it will swing back at some point in many years from now. Of course, harmful policies absolutely should be pushed back against, but it’s not an inevitability or if a push to stop one fails, it’s not over forever.
