You voted for Justin Trudeau. Pointe Finale. You cast a vote for a party that had zero chance of forming government and whose own leader lost his seat to a Conservative. Berniers views, while valid in many cases, are entirely out of step with mainstream Canada. If one wants to be elected PM you must appeal to all voting demographics and not have a whiff of bigotry, intolerance or racism about you. Bernier, a Frenchman, lost his seat in Quebec- by far the most intolerant province in all of Canada- because his views were even too extreme for Quebecers and thats saying something as the no religious symbols bill in Quebec is extremely popular. It's been reported that many NDP voters voted strategically by voting liberal IOT keep the Tory's from power because they knew that the NDP can never and will never form government and they voted liberal as a means to ensure Scheer did not get to 24 Sussex- PPC supporters should take a page from their book. The PPC hopefully is dead but PPC votes in some ridings cost the Conservative candidate the seat because the ridings were incredibly close and had those PPC supporters voted strategically as well with the common view that Trudeau had to go some of those ridings would have went Conservative instead of Liberal.
