Very real
Smoking is bad.
Iโm anti-smoker myself.
Itโs about the sentiment conveyed.

I helped!
I know nothing about canadian politics, but Fanjoy looks like he is having a lot of fun and joy. ๐บ
To give a bit of context. The person in second, Pierre Poilievre, is the leader of the Conservative party and campaigned for Prime Minister of Canada. Canadians don't vote directly for Prime Minister. The country is divided into a few hundred ridings and each riding gets to elect a Member of Parliament. The party with the most MPs gets to form government, and their leader becomes the Prime Minister.
Not only has Poilievre failed to win enough seats for the Conservative party to form government, he might not even win his own seat. A seat he has held for 20 years. It would be embarrassing for him and hilarious for all the Canadians that think he's a dickhead.
Thanks for clarification!
not even win his own seat
As in he won't be elected as a member of parliament because not enough people voted for him in his region?
He wasn't elected.
Results are in.
Bro for real?!
CBC shows P.P. as defeated.
Singh also was defeated.
The co-leader of Green too. Jonathan. May still held hers.
Oh an Maxime didn't get a seat either :)

I'd say I'm a fan of his.
Makes me feel a lot bettter about losing high quality men such as Jagmeet Singh and Jonathan Pedneault!
Can't agree! Muclair and Singh moved so far to center they destroyed the party. Not just my words, the party removed all reference to socialism from the party constitution.

Oh no, did Jagmeet lose his seat too? I'm a liberal but Jagmeet is a good guy, didn't deserve that.
He did, and he's stepping down as party leader. Personally, I think it's a good thing. His leadership has been far too soft and cuddly. The NDP need a leader who will channel the anger a lot of Canadians are feeling at watching their quality of life get sold off to oligarchs.
