Yes I agree, Carney is just the latest one. We've been electing people that are dismantling everything for decades. The worst part isn't the federal, it's the provincial governments as they are the one who are in charge of most of our social programs. Here in Québec, they've been dismantling health care, social assistance program, infrastructures, education, child care and even one of the thing we're most proud of Hydro-Quebec. Everything so slowly that most of the people thinks its because of the unions or shit like that.
It's maddening to see people complaining about the decay of everything then turn around and elect the same type of people again that brought us there, but in another branding. And the only thing they will say is that they can't elect the alternative as they wear a hoodie... So stupid.
Like my parents, like everyone they were complaining of the last liberal government (which is akin to a conservative party that likes immigrants), so they wanted change. What did they do? They voted for the CAQ which is filled with conservatives and old boomers. The exact same type of people. Now they act surprised as they are not satisfied with them anymore, for the exact same reasons again. Next time they will probably vote for the PQ which has made a turn towards fascistic rethoric. The only alternative is QS, but a few members are anti-capitalists so they are now intelligible in their eyes. Oh and a member one time used to wear hoodies in parliament, that was such news worthy...
We're a bit luckier than in the US as we do have alternatives that are possible to elect, but most people are too dumb to give them a chance. Doesn't help that the whole media apparatus are for the statu quo and demonize the alternatives every chance they can.
