Look at the provincial parties in power across the country, it’s nearly all conservatives. Then consider we would probably have Poilievre as a PM if not for Trump’s 51st state rhetoric, and even with Carney it’s basically still conservative policy we’re getting. It’s a nationwide thing.
He’s only “liberal” in the sense that he doesn’t hate lgbt+ and non-white citizens.
Mainstream Conservative parties nowadays do openly hate lgbt+ and non-white citizens. If not enough to expell/“remigrate” then enough to make them all second or third tier citizens.
In case of Alberta, the premier is on record supporting the deportation of non-white Canadians, which is what remigration is. Marlaina and UCP are full blown white supremacists who support remigration.
As I said earlier, Marlaina is on record supporting “remigration”.
Most cons support and turn a blind eye to their racist base. Even if they don’t outright say anything racist towards non-white citizens, their actions speak louder than words.
You know, I’ve met a few left leaning Indians, but very few. I suspect all the immigration from exclusively India the last 10~ years was for exactly the purpose of getting more Conservative voters.
It’s not like we have been taking the best and brightest from everywhere lately.
People in countries left of us don’t want to move here as much as people in countries right of us. So even if they are left wing back home, they usually end up more right wing in Canada.

Yeah, Carney is only a liberal because of the overton window shifting. He is a straight up con from 30 years ago

Cons don’t hate non-whites, that’s their voting base.
It really depends.

It’s not about best and brightest.

I am aware. It used to be about the best and brightest when I was a kid.
All it’s about is wage suppression. Nothing else drives the way we do immigration now.
I disagree. Maybe it’s not a party platform, but they sure don’t put up a stink when their base calls for it
Nearly…
It seems like a worldwide thing lately ☹️
Basically? He is a better conservative than Harper was. Only real difference I see is he isn’t going hard after the CBC.
