Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

Side note: I love that May and Letwin are named May and Letwin. The Cameron Cabinet lives on in the Green Party of Canada!

Would Canada's most famous fictional Tory, Anne Shirley, have voted for the Scheer-led CPC? Somehow I can't see it. (I can totally see Gilbert and Diana, who are both Grits in the books, voting for Biebertrudeau, though.)

Do people speculate about coalitions every time a Canadian election produces a minority government, or is something unique about this time around?

I'm familiar with the general lay of the land in Canadian politics and the big names in Canadian political history but don't follow the Canadian political process day-to-day. Can someone explain to me what exactly it is about Biebertrudeau that makes him so uniquely loathsome to the West? He's not even that anti-fossil fuel except rhetorically. Do people see the campaign rhetoric and assume he's coming for their livelihoods even though he's barely lifted a finger against the oil lobby in the past four years? Is there just a different culture out there that's put off by the dictatorship-of-the-woketariat vibes? Is it an affirmative strategy on the CPC's part to establish itself as a Western Canadian sectional party, rather than toxicity on Trudeau's part?
