    … you’ve got to be the only person then. Even the CPC is surprised they won.

    Also, your excuse makes no sense. What’s your reasoning for the previous Liberal massive success in thus riding? They’ve regularly been getting ~50% or more of the vote and even won by a healthy margin in 2011 when the party was soundly defeated from coast-to-coast… Do you think all the rich people moved in within the last couple of years?

      Hello? The average income of this district is twice that of the province, and of the city. Half the residents live in the wealthy neighbourhoods in the district. This is our 1%. Inflation doesn’t impact them. Higher capital gains tax does. The other half are in apartment buildings along yonge in mid-town. Fashionable and desirable area. The north boundary of district is called “young and eligible”. Rising cost of homes impact their home ownership aspirations. Some of these apartment dwellers have swung to cons. Libs have fucked up big time.
