While technically an accurate translation, no one in Canada refers to the Bloc Quebecois as the Quebecer Bloc. It's a little like referring to Plaid Cymru exclusively as the Wales Party.
@@xunqianbaidu6917 Well... to be fair, they DO refer to it, just no one knows how to pronounce it properly!
Nothing really changed. You’d probably mistake the current electoral map for being the one in 2019.
Good summary of the video above
Yep, just like 2008
Just a question if no party lost any seats then how can the liberals won +3 and the other parties +2 and +1
Yeah the map is just 2019 part 2: bluer maritimes
@@janspasov there’s a mistake in the video. The changes were based on how many seats the parties had when the election was called. In 2019, the Conservative actually won 121 seats, the Liberals won 157, and the Greens had 3.
Conservatives lost two seats during the Parliament because they removed one member from their caucus who continued to sit as an independent and they had another member retire and step down before the election.
Liberals had three MPs become independents since 2019. And one Green MP became a Liberal shortly before the election.
Hope that clarifies things.
The graphic on seat changes is misleading. Those are seat changes from just prior to the election, and include 5 open seats. In reality, the change from 2019 is Lib +1, Con -2, BQ +2, NDP +1, Green -1, and Independents -1.
thank you, I got confused.
Not all the seats were open. If memory serves me right, four of them belonged to MPs who had left or been kicked out of their previous caucus (Derek Sloan (former Conservative), Marwan Tabbara Yasmin Ratansi, and Ramesh Sangha (3 former Libs). The one vacant seat was former Conservative MP Diane Finley and, of course, the single floor crosser of the last Parliament was former Green Jenica Atwin who became a Liberal, bringing them to 155 seats.
But your seat changes do accurately reflect the changes since 2019.
@@alainbercier4556 I used "open" to mean "vacant plus non-affiliated". Your explanation, though not as pithy, is indeed more comprehensive. Thanks for the addition :)
@@ravenlord4 don't forget that one liberal seat is technically sitting as an independent...because he got kicked out for sexual assault allegations but it was too late for him to be removed from the ballot, but people still voted for him as the liberal candidate. Feminist leader indeed.
TLDR you really have to work on clarity and double checking your facts. These small mistakes are really eroding my trust in you!
Hundreds of millions of dollars spent to get basically the same thing.
CA$610000000, the most expensive election it really is a waste of time (and no I'm not Canadian)
One comment I read clarified that it could very well have been a strategic move to prevent a conservative rally in the next election. The next election would have been in a year had this election not occurred, allowing time for O'Toole to hammer the LPC with the economy on the campaign trail. With this election, the next election is in 4 years (2025) allowing time for Trudeau to smooth over any issues on that front. There's no telling if this was the _intended_ effect but it is _an_ effect of this election.
@@korayven9255 I think that is exactly what the strategy was.
Take a flesh wound now and live to fight another day. It gives them 4 more years of power and time to find an effective attack strategy for the next election.
And it seems to have worked.
Trudeau also said if he didn’t get a majority he’d call another election in 18 months…can’t wait to see the result to that pointless power grab
@@korayven9255 minority governments rarely if ever last the full 4 years though, which is part of the reason Trudeau called the election so he could get a majority. The reason he wants a majority is because at any moment the opposition parties can call a motion of non confidence forcing another election.
Quebecer Bloc? This is literally the first time I've heard Bloc Québécois called that and I live in the part of Canada where there is virtually zero French speakers.
Lol very true. I'm not even sure it can be translated into english lmao
It’s interesting that you focused on the outcome as reflecting a failure on the part of Trudeau. I’m working on a video that focuses it more as a failure of O’Toole. But that said, since the outcome was so status quo, I guess it’s a failure on the part of everyone.
One of my takeaways that a lot of Canadians are not very open minded about switching their vote no matter who the leaders are or what happens in the campaign.
Ardently waiting for your take J.J.
I 100% agree J.J that Canadians have become alot more close minded in the last few years. Love your vids looking forward to hearing your take on the election.
Trudeau is modern day useless Chamberlain. Xitler push him around.
I’m not even Canadian but I was just hoping something interesting would happen. I expected it to be very similar to the last election but, damn. This is about the closest it can be to 2019.
That's what happens when you make issues out of non issues... the left thinks the right are racist islamaphobic homophobes... while the left is painted as ushering in 1984... both are microscopic issues that have been way over blown. People need to open a history book and understand how good life is for everyone today so they can focus. Instead of acting like the sky is falling
I've never heard the Bloc Quebecois referred to that way
Most people who vote for the Bloc (at least the ones I know) don’t do it because they want to leave Canada but because of the lack of better options, they don’t like the conservatives, and they are tired of the Liberals. The greens and NDP aren’t to popular here either so the bloc is usually the only option they like
These are two different parties, the one you mention is for secession, the one in the video is for succession ;)
Neither has anyone else.
Early elections always look desperate to me and desperate is generally not a good look in politics.
Also not a good look in general human interactions
In Denmark it’s not uncommon to have election periods last only about three years. Although since 2007 the parliamentary period has lasted 3,5 to 4 years, which is the maximum. Last election was in 2019 and I’m not expecting an early election this time either.
As I've seen in some sources, it generally worked out in canadian history (I'm not canadian)
Actually, I haven't seen a minority government last the full 4 years. There's even a Conservative minority government that lasted 3 days in 1926 and a Liberal minority government that lasted 56 days in 1873-74. My guess is they waited for the holidays to pass before calling it. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_minority_governments_in_Canada
They do and he did not sell it well. But as I said in my comment, the legislative calendar kind of forces minority governments into an election at about the 1.5 - 2 year mark. Two reasons 1) The opposition can bring down the government at any time (this is usually about 1.5 years in); and 2) All legislation in progress dies when a government falls or an election is called--so at about the 1.5 year mark, a minority government cannot really start any big new legislative projects because they will likely die. Trudeau need to restart the clock to start a couple big pieces through the process.
You guys need to look up the difference between "seats won in the last election" and "seats at the time parliament was dissolved". The liberals didn't win 155 in 2019, they won 157, but lost 2 since then. Similarly, the Conservatives won 121 in 2019, and the Greens won 3.
You’re correct. Their reporting looks like 6 new seats have been created. That’s not the case
The "Quebecer Bloc" is referred to by its French name Bloc Québécois, even in English Canada
I thought that was weird too XD I was like whoa I guess that is technically the translation mais c'est le bloc quebecois
@@mordecai4207 Bloc is a masculine word in French. So it is Bloc québécois. And of course the political context makes it absurd to find a translation…
@@luc-mariegervais4163 A bit ironic to translate it into English LOL! But big prop to these guys for giving our politics real time!
“Canada has fully withdrawn from Afghanistan…”
Words and context, these things matter when you’re trying to get the story straight. Canada most certainly did withdraw from Afghanistan… seven years ago. What happened after this election was called, is that Canada halted it’s part in the evacuation effort in Afghanistan. Monumental difference.
minor correction: Trudeau didnt increase his vote share this time around. If you meant seats, then yes he won like 1 more seat than last time. But in popular vote, he went down by about 1%, making this the lowest vote share for a winning campaign in Canadian history
Liberals with a 31.8% vote share and a turn out of only 58.4% means that the PM is backed by less than 1 in 5 voters.
It means people are waking up to the mess that Trudeau is. Good for them. This guy is a joke and he's been in charge for waaay too long.
It doesn’t matter if your politics aligns with Trudeau or not. To be “elected” despite more people voting for the opposition is a democratic disgrace.
It’s happened twice before in the UK too. This is why we need Proportional Representation.
There may be a risk of becoming the Netherlands
@Alex Pokrandt And at 5% single issue parties still generally form. They're just not as disruptive. But their existence give realistic opportunities to shape the major parties.
@@tyvamakes5226 There are some arguments you can make against PR sure but what we have currently is the worst system in the world after Americas. In 2019 71% of the votes had no impact on outcome of the vote. And in 2015 3 of our 3rd parties got about 1/4 of the vote but collectively only 1.5% of the MPS. I vote for a 3rd party and live in a safe seat so am effectively locked out of democracy.
There are also types of PR that aren't quite as proportional as the Netherlands making forming governments easier but avoid votes being wasted and the spoiler effect. Like STV which would be my preference.
That's fair. I voted liberal and I agree the FPTP system is broken. I would love to see a New Zealand style MMP system where you get your local MP (to ensure regional diversity), Indigenous seats and a vote for the party you want to win that determines the final makeup of the house.
Minority governments still need support from other parties to pass laws. So do coalitions, those are just more permanent. In both cases you need at least half of the representatives to vote for your prime minister and your laws. Not undemocratic then.
'pulled a Theresa' is now one of my favourite political descriptions. I will have to use that in the future.
“Build back better” if there’s one phrase a politician can utter at the moment to turn a large group of voters against them, it has to be this.
The Conservative’s “Secure the Future” was also laughable in light of the fact that a majority of the party membership does not believe that climate change is real.
And yet Trudeau didn't lose any ground by it. The biggest change, not mentioned, was the huge vote share gains by the PPC, up from basically nothing.
Why do you think so? I agree that the phrase is not especially catchy, but both the USA Dems and the Canada Libs recently won elections with that phrase.
Plus, at least in the US, two thirds of the people support the BBB-policies.
Calling it “Quebecker Bloc” is extremely funny. Yes, that’s technically what the English translation of it is - but nobody in Canada would ever call it the Quebecker Bloc lol
Also, it’s worth acknowledging that the Tories were hurt in the last week by the Premier of the United Conservative government of Alberta’s decision to implement a vaccine passport system right before the election. It went over so poorly that it’s leading to outright mutiny, with potentially dozens of Jason Kenney’s MLAs prepared to vote for non-confidence in him as a leader after they and other UCP members apparently received brutal responses at the doors when they were campaigning for the CPC. Alberta, the Conservative stronghold, dropped nearly 15 points in Conservative support, with most of that going to the NDP and (to a lesser extent) the Liberals. It’s the first time Alberta has ever had two NDP MPs at once (Heather McPherson and Blake Desjarlais in Edmonton), Alberta’s got its first Métis and first Two-Spirit MP (also Desjarlais), and the first time a Liberal has been elected on a provincial or federal level under an incumbent PM Trudeau, with George Chahal in Calgary. The Greens also elected their first-ever Ontario MP, the PPC failed to win any seats, and Janica Atwin held her Fredericton seat after crossing the floor from the Greens to the Liberals earlier in the year.
Not much changed in raw numbers of seats, but there were still some interesting developments out of this election.
Outrage over vaccine passport system and yet Calgary shifted heavily to the left? Doesn't make sense
@@thomasgrabkowski8283 could be people frustrated that Kenney let it get THAT bad that a vaccine passport was needed
@@thomasgrabkowski8283 Also, and I haven't looked at the numbers, but the Conservative voters may have split to the PPC, letting the NDP through.
@@thomasgrabkowski8283 I didn't see any "major" shifts. One seat out of 10 changing hands isn't a major shift, that's a normal thing. Keep in mind that Conservatives have had it good for a little while now because there was only 1 major party representing them outside of Quebec while the Liberal voters had two parties to vote for, meaning the NDP have been splitting Liberal votes for quite a while now. This time around, the Conservatives are starting to feel the same effect with the PPC showing up and acting for them like the NDP are for the Liberals.
@@thomasgrabkowski8283 Outrage over vaccine passports is only part of the story. There is another group of people who are outraged, mostly in urban centers, of the hospital system being overwhelmed by covid and having to cancel all non-emergency surgeries and procedures. These people feel it could have been avoided with tighter covid controls, hence these are the people who shifted to the left. But there is indeed an equally large group of people who shifted more to the right in protest of the passport system.
Saying the Bloc stand for independence is a huge oversimplification. I voted for the Bloc and I don't want independence. Not to mention the fact that they literally can't affect the independence movement in any way since they are a federal party and independence referendum can only be launched from the provincial government. It's mostly a party that we vote for when we know it's gonna be a minority government so that we hold the balance of power. That's really almost all there is to it, they pretty much are a pointless party when it's a majority government but when it's a minority government, they essentially prevent anyone from messing with Quebec (which the federal government usually does pretty damn often otherwise), even for stuff as controversial as bill 21, simply because the government might need them for a parliamentary vote later. If you look at past election results, we never bother voting for them when it's going to be a majority government. It's just strategic voting really.
@@night6724 you would prefer duplessis!?
With that logic then every province that feels misrepresented should form a federal party to compete for the seats in just their province? The Bloc makes absolutely no sense. Calling itself a federal party but only representing one particular part of the country is the definition of discrimination. Its the main reason why there is a minority government.
@@shantarii If you can make a party that represents your province well and wouldn't be completely irrelevant go right ahead, I don't see the problem. A lot of other countries have regional parties like the Bloc at the federal level you know.
Anyway, what's wrong with a minority government exactly? Despite Trudeau attempting to convince people otherwise, minority governments in Canada have always worked very well, Trudeau passed more bills under his minority government than in the first 2 years of his majority government. That's because, since the ruling party has to make some concession to pass any bill in a minority government, bills aren't opposed as much by the other parties so they pass much faster.
Look the bottom line is, I'd love to no longer have to strategically vote almost every election and just be able to vote for the NPD even if they got no chance to win where I live. But that's only possible with proportional representation. You know, that thing Trudeau said he was gonna do and then didn't do.
@@giantWario Provincial representation is what provincial elections are for. Federal elections are supposed to be who you think would be better at managing the overall country's needs both internally and at the global stage. Each premier is responsible for pushing their province's issues forward with the PM. You don't need an entire federal party taking up unnecessary seats in parliament to do that.
What's the Bloc's take on Alberta's concerns or the North West Territories? They don't care because it has nothing to do with them and they don't require the cooperation of those populations to get their agenda promoted.
Hence why I call it what it is. Discrimination.
@@shantarii Yeah that really doesn't work when the federal government has consistently gone over the provincial Quebec government to screw us over in the past. La Nuit des Longs Couteaux? La Loi sur les mesures de guerres? Frigging everything Mulroney did? You don't get to come up here and say that my provincial government is supposed to be protecting my interest at the federal level when the federal government has absolutely never given a fuck about what Quebec thinks unless we force them to.
I get that you guys probably never read up on Quebec history but we're a conquered territory and have been historically very much been treated as such. The only reason Trudeau didn't repel bill 21 in Quebec is that he's got a minority right now and you're really silly if you think otherwise.
The only party that performed well in the English debate was BQ... And mostly because they played a good defence, and the moderator threw some seriously aggravating statements at them.
Basically boiled down to "your province is racist, the laws you advocate for are discriminatory, and now tell me why you agree" it is of course a paraphrase. But that one made a week long media turdnado in Québec
It's the perfect gift the BQ needed for this campaign. BQ performs well when Québec feels under attack by Canada.
The question was fair. One of the other party leaders would be unable to work as a teacher in Quebec, so the law really is discriminatory. It's not racist, though, because this is religious discrimination against Muslims, Jews, & Sikhs regardless of their race.
@@nathanbanks2354 so on what basis is the discrimination?
@@nathanbanks2354 Laicite is not discriminatory as it applies to all religions, including Christianity equally. it's just that other religions have tighter dress codes. I know this because my country ( Turkey ) used to have it too but erdogan replace it with anglosphere secularism which is too soft when its Come to religion.
@@atahanoktay2247 Translation, culturally French province is cultural French. Not everyone is culturally Anglo.
Wait, did the number of seats increase or something?
Seems like everyone either had a minor increase, or stayed the same.
@@hereward3411 Ah.
Thanks
Also the conservatives lost 1 seat, I believe. They were wrong about being equal in the video
@@hereward3411 fair, although I care about the rest as we are not a 2 party system 😜
The graphic is seat change relative to just before the election, not 2019. 5 MPs have quit or lost their jobs in that time, plus independants didn't fare well
@@civilengineer3349 no they didn't, the people's party didn't win any seats at all
worth bringing up the PPC next time, probably the only interesting thing that happened. Also I have never heard of the Bloc Quebecois referred to as the "Quebecor bloc."
@@stevemisfit1 considering TLDR will often focus on whether some marginal party will pass a 4% threshold in a MMP system, yes, I do think bringing up the populist right, anti-vax party that may have cost the Conservatives ~10 seats in an election with almost no net seat movement is worth exploring.
@@jeffblackman6960 14* seats. if the cpc was actually conservative but they're not competing for the same votes.
@@stevemisfit1 They got 5% of the popular vote! MORE than the 2% Greens. It is not worth criticizing or make stupid jokes but worth noting since he and PPC were only party to gain votes. In Proportional Representation PPC would have gotten between 17-21 seats.
thanks for the coverage ;)
"Secession" was spelled "succession". But pretty good video though. Bloc Québécois is usually not translated into English. Saying the NDP did "okay" is a bit misleading: in reality, it is still trying to climb out of the hole its ex-leader put it into (down from her Majesty's loyal first opposition - an utter humiliation for what's left of the Canadian left).
I'm fairly certain the reason why Jagmeet Singh is still leaders because the party is holding the balance of power unlike their last leader Tom Mulcair who won almost twice as many seats as judgments sing but was basically powerless against a liberal majority government
Singh also pulled the party back from a disastrous state where it seemed that it would lose official party status, which would have been its worst result in history. Mulcair on the other hand, had what at least looked like an easy election to win but brought the NDP back down to third party.

Great video!
This is a very good analysis. Far better than most Canadian voices. Very well done.
At 4:52, while it is correct that the liberals had 155 seats before the election, they won 157 at the last election, not 155 as you stated. The same is true for the conservatives, except they won 121 and had 119 at the time the election was called.
My thoughts exactly. All the parties gained seats simply because there were 6-7 independents prior to the election call. He should've compared the numbers according to their initial numbers following the 2019 election.
Wow because 2 votes makes the difference

Hello how are you doing today my friend
Bloc does not actively work to seperate Québec from Canada. They focused on Québec centric (and some of french speaking canadian not in Québec) issues at the federal level
No, they've made clear that they don't care about francophones outside Quebec in the slightest, nor about Anglophones in Quebec.
Their only concern, in their own words, is francophone Quebec, and working to increase the chances of Quebec successfully separating.
They have made clear in the past that they see their presence in Parliament as, amongst other things, an opportunity to gum up the works, thus irritating the rest of the country, in the hopes of causing an anti-Quebec that will in turn alienate francophone Québécois into supporting separation.
So fn true
@@JamesPhieffer The bloc is the only party that actually cares about French speakers outside Québec, and one of the few parties which care about indigenous people’s rights. You clearly don’t know much about this party.
Also, the English speakers in Québec are not oppressed, they’re just trying to find ways to get mad. We don’t call them ‘’angryphones’’ for nothing.
@@thomasprat7760 Unfortunately, it's clearly you that's uninformed about the Bloc-heads.
@@JamesPhieffer Lol I don’t even support the bloc, I didn’t vote for them and I despise their leader, but I actually live in Québec so I think I know them more than you do.
You only dislike them because you feel like they hate Anglo Montréalais, which is ridiculous.
This is a very good reflection of the general sentiments of Canadian. 👍
This is totally anecdotal, but: A number of voters I talked with were deciding their vote on one very specific, niche issue. Some people seem to think it's virtuous to inflict extreme hardship on themselves and others in order to support some nebulous fringe issue that they feel strongly about. The more they (and others) have to sacrifice to promote the one isolated issue - even where they can't articulate what the problem is or how the dysfunctional policy will help - the better.
I wouldn't call it 'slightly', he literally only won 1 extra seat from last election.
Hold on, how did three parties gain seats and nobody lost them? Did they just add more chairs to the parliament? How does that work?
I don’t like like what the Bloq stands for, but hot damn, their leader is good at what he does. He used to be on a debate television show. If anyone can debate well, it’s Yves Francois Blanchet.
Most of the Boc policies are a lot like those of the LIberal.
Yeah he's good isn't he. I'm not a Bloq supporter either but he's talented
4:58 The Bloc is in favour of “secession” from Canada not “Quebec Succession”. Lol
Same thing always happens in Oz. Politicians think they can take advantage of poll leads by calling early elections and their lead always evaporates.

Thanks for the update TLDR team :)

The Bloc Quebecois have previously had way more seats. I believe the most they won was 54
The best result they got was becoming official opposition back in 1993 but that was only possible because of a right-wing split between the progressive conservative and reform parties.
@@GenerationZ313 54 seats in 1993 under Lucian Bouchard, then 54 again under Gilles Duceppe. Despite the fact that I do not support Quebec Independence, I actually always liked Duceppe.
Thanks again for another great video on Canadian politics and thank you for paying attention to it.
One corrections: I have never heard "Quebecer Block." Words or phrases that only appear in French we wouldn't Anglicise. Therefore in both French and English we use the French term only: "Bloc Quebecois."
I noted this in your lead up the Canadian election vid... It would not have been good to wait much longer for an election because of the legislative calendar. In a minority the PM only has some of the power to decide the election and in fact, opposition could trigger an election at any time. As legislation dies when a government falls, big legislative projects like universal basic income and universal daycare can't be initiated 2 years into a minority because most minorities last less than 2 years. Basically at about 1.5 years a Canadian minority federal government is a lame duck.
Can I just say that is a horrendous looking election map
"Meant to last" isn't exactly accurate. The maximum term length is 4 years, but it can be dissolved before hand by either a vote of no confidence or the rule party asking for it. It's more common than not that minority governments last to the maximum term.
The PPC also underperformed so...yup, no change at all
my favourite quote from a political pundit on this election is "the most expensive cabinet reshuffle in history"

Your seat changes are from the dissolution of Parliament, not the last election. It was even more incremental compared to those results.

There is strong opposition to his "build back better" using the WEF great reset idea. Nobody wants to own nothing and feign happiness.
He's a Castro similarity. Squeezing the middle class for more bucks, doesn't hurt him/them financially and still get a gold plated pension, for messing the country up so bad financially
If you are going to do a video on the Bloc Quebecois, be sure to mention the Clarity Act, which is designed to make it near impossible for a province to separate from Canada. In my views, the only reason we have politicians stoking the fires of secession is because if they can get people angry enough to vote for them, they get a nice, juicy Canadian golden pension after six years of service.
In order to qualify for a pension you need to have served as an MP for 6 years
@@GenerationZ313 Is it 6? Thanks for the correction.
As a Canadian, I really appreciate you taking the time to post a well-informed video of this snap election.

O'Toole now gets to see if he stays as Conservative party leader after running for leadership as a true blue Conservative and bashing any one for suggesting moving the party to the 'mushy center' then immediately dragged the Conservative party to the mushy center in the election which he lost.
Nice jacket, Jack
The words "unstable" and "Trudeau" in the same sentence is a massive understatement.
Not really when you work out that the NDP & the Bloc both tend to back him

Hi, I am a Quebecker who voted, I would tell you that at the level of the BQ, Quebeckers do not vote for the independence in these times, but much more for a party which defends the interests of Quebec.
Also, one of the reasons why the world was unhappy with the launch of the elections by Mr. Trudeau is that the minority government was functional (it was mostly able to have one of the 3 * opposition parties on its side PCC / NDP / BQ for pass the bills)
why did you use the tldr news uk intro instead of global

Funny thing about the Bloc Québécois is that they have worked hard to downplay separation in recent years. That's due to the fact that when they campaign on separation, they do really really bad.
2011 Duceppe stated if the Bloc had a strong showing federally and the provincial sister party the Parti Québécois did well provincially they could have a 3rd referendum. They lost 43 seats and lost official party status. They didn't recover until 2019
2014 the Parti Québécois talked about a possible 3rd referendum. They had been on track for a majority but then lost outright to the unpopular Liberals. Since then they have been replaced by the CAQ. The CAQ aimed to be an alternative to the liberals that wasn't separatist and currently form government.
The Bloc Québécois are still at their core a separatist party but run on being a "strong voice for Québéc" it just does better with the electorate. I think it's safe to say, at least for now, Québéc wants to be part of Canada.
Im pretty sure that the caq replaced the liberals, not the pq. I could be wrong tho, we’ll see next year.
It was probably worth mentioning the popular vote and how far Canada’s FPTP electoral system skews the outcome.
Don't push fence sitters off the fence unless you are damn sure which side they will land on.
secession, not succession. But I love your vids keep them coming!
If all the parties you mention stayed at the same number of seats or showed a minor increase, then who lost those few seats that were won in the increases? Are there minor parties that were completely wiped out?
More seats were added to the House of Commons due to a population increase
@@johnloncar7785 Aah, thanks, that explains it.
You mentioned the number of seats gained in the Canadian parliament. I was surprised to see no party lose seats to make up for the gains the other parties had. As someone not Canadian, can anyone explain this to me?
Look at the top comments, I think one explains that the gain in seats is due to vacancies being filled.
@@Mythyc I saw it, thanks!
How everyone got more seats or stayed the same? It's there some minor party that banished or it's the number of seats variable?
I was wondering the same thing. The numbers didn't add up. Somebody had to have lost seats.
Nothing really changed
Yes, a video about Québec please! :)
Les Quebecois
Wait, how did the seats either increase or stay same for everyone? 🤔 Maybe more parties that these 5 that lost some?
Alexa, play Frolic from Curb Your Enthusiasm
This was a colossal waste of time money and energy...
Where did all the + seats come from?
Well that was pointless.
Just like in the rest of the western world, too many Canadians think their nice comfortable lifestyle is a natural right and they can afford to put lightweights like Trudeau in charge. In truth it is extremely fragile and with the pressures currently building worldwide I can't help thinking there's a very nasty shock coming soon.
Quebecer Block, never heard that one before. Its always been called the Bloc Quebecois or the Quebecois or just the bloc.
YAY HES BACK
He's gained a little of that neck fat too
Must not be canadian if you can say that.
@@FucklesTheDog i was talking about the guy who talks in the videos, not trudeau
Some party increased seat and others remain same. How is this possible? Is total seats in parliament increased?
Independents lost their seats
Those are the seat numbers at dissolution. The results should be compared to the 2019 election results, which are not the same. Still, basically no change
This video had a lot of inconsistencies like some of the other Canadian ones. In the later half of the video there’s especially a lot of errors that shows these results in a very different light than what it was.
"Doing a Theresa". I like that expression.
Also, not talking about how the "People's Party of Canada" (a libertarian party started by a disgruntled ex-Conservative) took LOTS of the vote that could have gone to the conservatives.
Or how the Green party collapsed due to internal squabbles and mismanagement - having seen most of their vote go to NDP or PPC.
The Bloc hasn't talked about leaving Canada in years - they are as much a true separatist party as the NDP are a true socialist party.
I'll watch a video about it - but if it's badly made, I'll just unsub -> if you can't take the time to do proper research, how can I trust that other topics on this channel have been properly researched.
Details matter.
Oftentimes I see people critique the PPC as being anti-vaxxxers, racists, transphobes, etc. What are the objective accounts of such allegations?
@@TheTurbanatore They aren't. They want to give people the choice to run their own lives. Want/don't want to get vaxxed, your choice. no to things like vaccine passports. Authoritarian types label them as that because free though and speech appears like that some times, but just because you disagree with some one doesn't mean that you hate them.
Lol the ppc is libertarian with fascist characteristics.
@@TheTurbanatore They want to cut immigration by more than 2/3, they want indigenous people to be ‘’assimilated to the western way of life’’, they want to erase all hate speech laws and they don’t believe in climate change. I might have forgotten a few things tho.
Oh and their candidates are all crazy, like there’s a anti cum guy and another one who designed a shooting video game in which you can shoot minorities and gay pride parades! They’re a mix of libertarians and maga fuckwits.
@@thomasprat7760 let's not forgot the candidate who seriously believes that you can breathe through your testicles.
What’s the fascination with breakups?
how can all the party's go up or be even in seats and no one losing?
independent seats decreased dramatically
People are pissed off housing and high cost of living. We almost have no middle class left.
Lots of middle class just living in Watertown or Milton rather than TO out here.
where did the extra 6 seats come from? where they held by independents?
He got extra time so if some catastrophe happens he has time to shift the blame somewhere else. Time is the most precious commodity
Take a close look at where the elected seat is located. Each party elected basically is representing a region of the country. This is due to the fact that under the Canadian Constitution the Senate is supposed to be representing regional interests; however, due to political appointments....the Senate has become a rubber stamp of the government of the day. You have a Senator from Edmonton voting to stop pipelines.....which makes no sense for their region. Due to the complete failure of the Canadian Senate to do their job; Canadians have devolved to voting for parties in the House of Commons that represent their region. The Conservatives for West Canada. The Liberals for TORONTO. The BQ for Quebec. Canadian Senators must be elected to their position, not appointed by the Prime Minister in order for the Canadian parliamentary system to start functioning as it was designed to operate by Queen Victoria.
If Ontario was better educated they would know voting Conservative is a horrible vote for the success of the country and themselves. The uneducated rural routes and aging population is a detriment to Canada moving forward. These people just vote conservative without a single thought going through their brain. Sickening!
People should always embrace the opportunity to take part in a general election.
