Canadian Politics News UPDATE! (Fall 2023)

The Liberals are doing bad in the polls right now, while the Conservatives under Pierre Poilievre are riding high! The NDP is cratering and the Bloc Quebecois is proving popular in Quebec! How are things looking as we get closer to Canada's 2025 election?

It feels like it’s been forever since Trudeau was elected. It hits to hear that we have another 2 years

Don't underestimate your audience's appetite for Canadian news updates from JJ. We would gladly watch weekly!

As an American, the Bloc has always fascinated me. Not in the “Is Quebec gonna try to secede again?” aspect, but in the sway they have. Obviously they won’t win Parliament, but if you get a large Bloc turnout combined with a minority government that needs the votes, the calculus of including them does.

Don't sell yourself short JJ. If you put out weekly Canadian political videos we would all watch because we love you and we love the quality content you always put out.

One of the things I truly appreciate when J.J. discusses politics; the way he can talk about viewpoints he may personally disagree with, without demonizing them or dismissing them. It's so refreshing, and makes me genuinely more interested in learning more about every political "side" of a subject.

It’s hilarious when the House of Commons burst into laughter when Jagmeet Singh said “when I’m prime minister…”

Conservatives have always been criticized as being aligned with big business, like liberals are looking out for the little guy. Maybe I'm naive but I think people are waking up to the fact that the choice is between conservatives aligned with big business or liberals aligned with the unelected international bureaucracies.

As an American observer, I found this to be quite informative! So, in short, right now, Canada has an interesting quartet of choices: a Liberal Party in government, an increasingly-popular Conservative candidate, a quasi-opposition NDP (that both supports and opposes Trudeau), and a _Bloc_ in Quebec that may influence the results without winning the election.

Thanks for making this video! Also, thank you, Isaac, for making the animations for these videos!

As a Canadian who isn’t very good at keeping up with politics, I also appreciate these update vids!

This was incredibly well balanced, a rarity.

In regards to wages in Canada, I was utterly shocked when I visited my company offices in Vancouver at how low the wages are. How do Canadians live with such a high prices and such low wages? I don’t understand

[robynsimensen]

I definitely think pierre pollieve's focus on affordability is really resonating with a lot of people. As a young Canadian whose surrounded primarily by more left wing peers, it's interesting to see how many of them are leaning toward the federal conservative party, especially when they have out right hatred toward the provincial conservative government in Alberta where we live. So I think this is an interesting time for politics in Canada right now.

I'm turning 18 In 2024. Can't wait to finally have the chance to contribute in booting Trudeau out of government once and for all.

The Conservatives have been looking for an issue that will stick to Trudeau as the numerous scandals haven't really stuck to him as they should. The cost of living has been that issue, namely because its something that affects Canadians lives. People can't see the WE Charity or the SNC Lavalin scandal and how it affects them. However they can see the price of food and shelter go up because it directly affects them. The worse thing for any Canadian Politician is high inflation, and the specter of recession

I’m an Australian and you make it really easy to understand Canadaian politics

[nilstebbe]

I am German and you explain Canadian poltics really well and i can understand it somwhat as a german speaker, greetings from Germany

[SpencerStevensMusic]

Man this just missed the biggest Canadian political headline of 2023 haha

My theory is that Trudeau in 2021 saw how calling a snap election worked out for the British Columbia NDP—they picked up a majority very handily. Sad trombone noise

[kevinp]

It’s just wild to me how much space and resources Canada has and housing is still unbelievably expensive

[linefrenette]

The federal liberal party challenges Quebec's law 21 (secularism) calling it “Racist” and they gave a standing ovation and honor to a former Nazi

It's Ludacris

[Christian_Martel]

I’m always skeptic of politicians who use “common sense” as an argument. Good political leadership comes from highly effective people who can juggled with complex issues. Poilievre has been an MP for two decades, a minister of the Crown and he can’t really convince me that he can really “fight for” ordinary Canadians.
