Has Canadian politics become more Americanized since Trump?

[ηєω ƒяσηтιєя]

Canadian politics has been polarized and heavily influenced by America for a long time. However, I've noticed ever since Trump's campaign and now presidency, Canadian politics has become more Americanized than ever.

Canada's Liberal Party is seemingly become a clone of the Democratic Party and Canada's Conservative Party is becoming more and more like the Republican Party. There used to be a decent distinction not too long ago.

Online, especially on Twitter, I've seen so many Canadian conservative voters who are carbon copies of Republican/Trump voters. I see them ranting about "Trudeau and the liberals being fascist socialists like Hitler and the Nazis", "protect Canadian gun rights and our rights to freedom", "Canada's multiculturalism experiment is failing", "Trump is the best and Canada should have a strong leader like him", "support life and ban abortion unlike the Trudeau the baby killer", etc. The 2019 election seemed to confirm the increased polarization and Americanization of Canadian politics.

I don't know if this is because I'm American and I don't know much about Canadian politics before 2015/2016 but has Canadian politics always been like this? Has Canada's politics become more Americanized since Trump took office?
