I don't follow. Without Trump's threatening to invade, Pollievre would likely have won. Would he not have suited US goals just as much, if not more than Carney?
Why did Trump suddenly do a 180 on PP and started calmly tweeting about how he prefers having a liberal in the canadian parliament. All we hear is "we need to accept X authoritarian, unpopular measure (like pipelines, infringing on indigenous lands, opening natural ressources for exploitation) to combat Trump". But it's his guy: ex Goldman Sachs banker, he became prime minister without elections, he's pictured with Ghislaine Maxwell, plus he made the crown as popular as its ever been in Canada. It was all a psyop and they used the same fear tactics because "PP would be worse". We just elected our Kamala but it didn't even take a token minority person to make us vote for the "least fascist" option.
Pay close attention and you will see that Carney is doing exactly what american and british capital put him there for: strip the copper from the walls while the dumbasses are distracted. Also fuck PP and the conservatives but you cant tell me to vote for a guy that's been under Harper and is a tool of capital to counter "the much farther right than this party already is".
