Senior Columnist Lorne Gunter discusses the 2025 federal election and Mark Carney on The Ezra Levant Show, tonight.

The Atlantic provinces and even Prince Edward Island briefly showed a majority of conservative seats, with PEI hosting a rally of over a thousand people for Pierre Poilievre.

But it feels like that's falling apart.

Ontario appears content with the status quo at the expense of other regions. Despite larger than usual rallies in the province, the Conservative Party is losing ground.

“The threats from Donald Trump on tariffs have created bigger fears than usual,” Gunter told Rebel News. “And so yes, people were afraid of another term by the Liberals. But it now seems to them that the bigger problem is more tariff threats from Trump.”

Alberta, unlike Ontario, remains conservative, and should be a lock for a near clean sweep. However, Ontario is the key to winning the election. 

Kory Teneycke criticized Poilievre's Conservative campaign and suggested a change in strategy, which Ford agreed with.

Poilievre's substantial lead over the Liberals has diminished on the backs of Trump tariff woes.

    Now does anyone get the picture here?
    The reason Trudeau kept resisting calls for elections was because he didn’t want to run on his own record. The image would almost certainly have been destroyed then, and beyond repair.
    The “leadership race” was a smoke screen, with the outcome and timing being a foregone conclusion. No one in the caucus wanted to take the reins lest it disturb their own access to the kitty. You need only look at Olivia Chow to understand how and why Carney got the reins.
    And the reason the election was finally called was entirely self-serving. They would finally be able to campaign the way they always did: their own.
    This whole 51st-state thing isn’t going to be an issue after the election; its sole purpose is to take up the campaign and starve the real issues of desperately-sought attention.

    Carney and his cronies told Trudeau what to do!!! Nothing will change with Carnie !! It will be worse !!
    I would rather have Bernier…but I will vote Conservative. Old habits die hard. This is Agenda 21-27. The Georgia Guidestones had the Depopulation Agenda carved on it. The aliens or Vabal whatever they r only want approx 500m people left alive worldwide by approx 2025-27.
    The poison shots didnt kill enough people. The Chinese Dominion Voting Machines are rigged and put in whomever the Chinese want in. Trudeau said in 2015 when interviewed after he was illegally put in that China is his favourite country..when asked why China by the shocked host…Trudeau responded with " I like the Dictatorship !! He wasn’t kidding…Trudeau was a dictator. Carney is also… Canada is gone. My ancestor Sir General Isaac Brock fought and died keeping Canada Sovereign. He must be spinning..
    I want to move.to Alberta !!

    Bring on the domino effect. Confederation never has worked for most provinces. That Laurentian attitude has made our country bound to southern Ontario and southern Quebec. It’s time to restructure or break up confederation.
