I think this will be my last post on this topic until tomorrow when we've got the results
The images that will stay with me - nay, haunt me - long after this election is over: Mark Carney standing silently with Vancouver’s Filipino community, at a vigil for the victims of yesterday’s horrific event, juxtaposed against the images of Pierre and Anaida Poilievre, celebrating on stage at a rally in his home riding.
One of these men rearranged his final campaign stops, cancelling 3, rescheduling 1, so that he could be where he should be tonight.
The other immediately referred to the event as an “attack” (before police had even held a news conference), then used the horrific events of yesterday to push out a disgusting video that makes what happened about “catch and release”, when the suspect is known to police thru mental health issues - not criminal activity - and after all that politicizing of lives lost in Vancouver, he chose to go to a rally as opposed to standing with those who are mourning
One of these men knows the seriousness of the moment, in every serious moment.
The other has failed to meet the moment, time and time again.
This shouldn’t even be a contest. But for those who still haven’t made up their minds, this moment should be the tipping point for you.
Barring any huge developments, this wiil serve as my last post about these two campaigns. Because if a picture is worth a thousand words, these two images are a dissertation on the choice Canadians had to make in this election.
I have faith we got it right.
