    Oh well if you haven’t heard it, that’s all the data we need. You have many Muslims in your social circles after all, and only Muslims care about genocide right?

    What an arrogant response.

      You said it was “the reason”.

      You probably would’ve said it was “the reason” if we had a Conservative government, too.

      Before Carney, if you’d told me “the reason” that people voted Conservative is because they were tired of Trudeau, I’d believe you. Or told me “the reason” was because they were upset about pandemic restrictions imposed by the provincial governments, along with the economic fallout of the pandemic… I’d believe you.

      It was all over the news. Everyone was talking about it. A whole bunch of losers got into trucks and drove to the capital to complain to the wrong people on multiple levels.

      When you claim that “the reason” was an issue that I’ve never heard anybody complain about with regards to their voting intentions, it sounds like you’re just coming in with your mind made up and trying to find anything to justify the conclusion you’ve already arrived at.

      It was 3 seats of 172 or something like that. That’s why the Liberals aren’t a majority government.

      So if this an issue in 3 ridings that flipped from Liberal (to…which party has been anti-Israel?), then sure. Though it probably wouldn’t be “the reason”, since we could probably find 3 or more other ridings that flipped to Liberal from whichever other party.

      It seems like you’re living in confirmation bias and seeing the rest of the world through that lens.
