      Anti-Conservative sentiment in Quebec. The Bloc is never going to hold a majority, so strategically at this time the Liberals were the obvious choice to keep the Conservatives out of power. Among other things.

        I am so glad we don’t have to worry about that here in Aus.

        But I do find it kinda curious. This seems a little different from how things played out in the UK. Over there, the anti-conservative vote didn’t always go to Labour, but instead would tend to go to Labour or Liberal Democrat, depending on the seat. You’d expect if an incumbent is non-conservative, the strategic anti-conservative vote would be to re-elect the incumbent. That should play in BQ’s favour in terms of retaining their seats. And yet that apparently isn’t what happened.

          That would be splitting the vote. If 30% vote Bloc, 25% Lib, and 31% vote Con, con wins even tho majority didnt vote for them. Seems a lot of Québecois opted to vote lib to avoid splitting the vote, to screw the Cons.

      10:41 p.m. EDT: Blanchet holds seat as party suffers losses

      Blanchet caused some upset days before the election calling Canada an “artificially country with very little meaning,” then doubled down in the face of denunciation by his political rivals.

      The Bloc lost ground to Mark Carney’s Liberals early in the election campaign – as many voters rallied around the incumbent government in the face of U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs threat – and Blanchet struggled to win back that support.

      Independence is not a priority with the current geopolitical situation. Plus a lot of people want to make sure PP doesn’t get in.
