If you'd have told me even 4 months that there was a slight chance to beat PP, I'd have been ecstatic. I hope that his career (and the political feasibility of faschy candidates like him) implodes after tonight.

Currently losing his own riding. Jagmeet too, but both have few polls reporting.

I would find it amusing if the “Independent party” ended up taking Carleton (ie: more voters voted independent than PP).

That reminds me - what the heck is up with the candidates in Carlton? Who are all these independents?

There was an organized protest campaign run where a whole bunch of people ran in PP’s riding to bring visibility to the mishandling of electoral reform in Canada, specifically around tanked choice voting and proportional representation. Liberals ran on it in 2010 and then failed to do anything other than make a mess of moving away from first past the post .
