Now which group is on social media more?

If it makes some of you feel better, Singh is polling in third place in his own riding.

He’s basically not been a noticeable voice in the tariff threat crisis. That’s gotta cost him.

My gut says the youth, but I know that boomers love all caps posting on FB.

Perhaps the better question is which social media venue ?

I could see that. Older people aren’t as effected by the Liberals policies (and if anything have actively benefited from them). Young people have had the opposite experience.

Younger people eschew FB altogether. It’s seen as a platform for ‘old people’.

My back hurts…

People 65 and over have experience that includes memories of Canadian politics and culture going back to PET's ascent. Most of their adult lives have been dominated by Liberal governments, and notwithstanding the difficult economic decade from roughly 1975 to 1985, dominated by opportunity easily grasped. They're used to a thinner information diet based on broadcast TV and newspapers. Much of their lives they've been accustomed to only knowing what passes the establishment gatekeepers.

Older central and eastern folk get their news flow from Liberal funded mainstream media, where Liberal incest is incredibly pervasive. They love any reason to vote Liberal. If Carney is weaseled into power, this country has absolutely no hope.
