28% + 18% + 5% = 51%.

So depressing to read that more than half of the Canadian population favours socialist and economically ruinous policies.

"A Lower Standard Of Living For All" could be their rallying call.

It may be their only rallying cry.

Depressing, yes. But there are millions who don't vote, and who aren't sampled, and they're starting to realize it's important to head to the polls next time. Look at me, being all optimistic.

An excellent point about the historically low turnout at Canadian federal elections. Almost 38% of eligible voters forfeited their right to place a ballot during the 2021 contest. Surely this presents an opportunity for right thinking politicians.

It’s one of the reasons they haven’t taken a harder line on our out of control immigration numbers.
