Something similar is currently happening to 'conservative' ideology. Hard right conservatives won election in #US, but consequences are - conservatives are losing badly in #Canada and #Australia, something that was hard to imagine 3 months ago.

Remember your employer is required to allow three hours PAID to cast your ballot today if you didn't already in the advance polls.
Also, if you are in line when the polls close tonight STAY IN LINE. As long as you are in line when the poll closes you have a right to cast your ballot.
Ok, Canada, we’ve got this. Today we send the Conservatives packing. The farther away Poilievre is from any power, the better.
Gratitude for Elections Canada
the independent, singular national agency that coordinates the business of getting millions of us to the polls.
And a big shout out to the thousands of temporary poll workers who pull it all together in a seamless + professional way.
We are well served.
Do not travel to the USA.
Reason number 22.

"“If Pierre has the same results as we had under Erin O’Toole and Andrew Scheer and he loses his riding as well, all hell will break loose. The party will fracture,” said Ms. LeBreton, who served in Mr. Poilievre’s Ottawa-Carleton riding association. She resigned over Mr. Poilievre’s support of the trucker convoy on Parliament Hill."
