Nothing says "classy" like flying that flag.

Good L🍁ck Trudeau! (But also, don't let the door hit you on the way out...)

But it was nice seeing so much NDP support! There's no way these people were supporting conservatives, as the things they were complaining about would only be even worse under PP.

...Oh, these people lack critical thinking skills, and they were being bought by conservative supporters?

Trudeau will be remembered for many things

including all the conservatives that wanted to fuck him.

Many men were disappointed when arriving at the Ram Ranch to find Trudeau wasn't there.

But they made due.

I loved that the original attack ad they had when he was first running for Prime Minister was that he was too young and handsome to be a leader.

I'm embarrassed they latched onto his hair. And now, all they can say is 'carbon tax', like we're all rich enough where it's a tax and not a benefit.

[–] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 3 points 22 hours ago

I've met plenty of people who weren't rich enough who were still certain it was a tax and not a benefit.

Used to have nice hair, still does, but used to too.

Lol I was quoting Mitch hedberg, "I used to do drugs, I still do, but used to do too"

I guess that's why the cons dumped o toole he had no hair

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 day ago

In hindsight he was the best leader they had in a long time

But the Cons are kind of like the scorpion and the frog and I did not trust them one bit.

Just finding out I'm a raging conservative. Oh god, I need to sit down... On his lap...

[–] Isaac@waterloolemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

This is in regards to our brethren down south, poking fun at 2nd amendmenters and their manly faΓ§ade. Seems like cons all over the globe mostly like to larp as strong men but like if you gotta hide behind a firearm, are you really manly? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

That's how I read those signs. That Bubba in the truck had a boner for Justin.

My response to those truck flags was always "Gay and proud. YES! You go girl!"

He is a thirst trap though even after ten years in office. He’s only 53 seems very young to retire. I’m curious to know what he does next. UN ambassador? Ambassador for Canada to France?

[–] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I hope we keep him around as Chief Toddler Wrangler every time Trump comes sniffing around.

I'm not a big Trudeau fan but he's amazing at dealing with that creep. Remember the handshake during Trump's first term?

And for letting us down on proportional representation: !fairvote@lemmy.ca

[–] CircaV@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago

That was defintely the beginning of the end for Trudeau. And lost him all the young voters.

[–] Arkouda@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Proportional representation is not the answer because the party system does not work to begin with.

[–] AlolanVulpix@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago (12 children)

But proportional representation does not require political parties to be a part of the electoral system.

See single transferable vote (STV): A Simple Guide to Electoral Systems. It's still a work in progress, but lays out a good framework for discussing electoral systems.

The "Fuck Carney" flags are already in production, I guarantee it.

[–] Jmalcip97@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

Once saw a fuck Trudeau flag next to a every child matters flag on the same truck. Based centrist alert.

[–] cecilkorik@lemmy.ca 27 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Most of the flags around here have already been swapped for "Fuck Trump".

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago

Glad to see civil discourse making a come back.

But they look so good on trucks. /s

[–] swordgeek@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But they look so good on raised, coal-rolling trucks with balls. /s
