There’s a chill in the air, one that smells faintly of change—and something fouler beneath. Maybe it’s decay. Maybe it’s the long-overdue rot being pulled from Parliament’s rafters. Either way, new polling from Canada 338 is more than just numbers. It’s a tremor, and the ground is shifting fast.
According to the latest projections, both Jagmeet Singh and Elizabeth May are headed for defeat in the coming election. That’s right—two of the most recognizable figures in Canada’s political theatre might soon be swept off the stage like forgotten props after the final act.
And I’ll be honest: I’ll take that as a win. However small it may seem, it’s still a crack in the dam. A fracture in the mask.
For years, these figures cloaked themselves in promises—bright smiles and buzzwords, speaking of progress, equity, the environment. But behind those speeches? Deals in the dark. Silence when voices needed raising. Compromises that cost us more than they ever admitted.
Jagmeet, with his tailored suits and Insta-perfect image, came in like a storm, but when it mattered—when Canadians needed thunder—they got drizzle. A lot of talk, not enough bite. And Elizabeth May? A relic. A green icon turned paper ghost. Once a fierce advocate, now a whisper in the wind.
Now the voters seem to be waking up, slowly, like someone emerging from a long, uneasy dream. The polling doesn’t lie. Their time might be up.
But don’t mistake this for a clean victory. Not yet.
This isn’t a celebration—it’s a warning. Power never dies quietly. It screeches, it clings, and sometimes it burns the house down just to keep the light on a little longer. So if you think their political death rattles are the end of the story, think again. The void left behind could be filled by something worse—something colder. Something hungrier.
Still, I’ll take that first breath of fresh air. However faint.
Because every dark chapter needs its turning point.
And this… this might just be ours.
Still, I’ll take that first breath of fresh air. However faint.
