De Adder Du Jour

 
By Baxter

A record number of Canadians — 7.3 million — voted in this past weekend's advance polls. That's a 25 percent increase over the number of people who voted early in 2021. Wow!

Nobody's speculating as to whether these banked votes will favor the Liberals or the Conservatives, but we're assuming that the sense of urgency folks are feeling about standing up to Benedict Donald will not redound to Pierre Poilievre's benefit. The overall sense is that although the Tories are trying to seize the mantle of change, voters aren't buying their alleged new brew. (See above.)

We'll know better when the results come in on April 28. Meanwhile, it is always excellent when voters in a democracy make sure their voices are heard, isn't it? We cats PURR.
