What about the other pollsters and what they're showing? When is your article about Ontario coming out? I'm still not confident your shot call may pan out after the election. I so want Trudeau to remain prime minister, even if it's for just one more year before Freeland or Carney take the load off his shoulders. But it's looking less and less likely, in part because of backlash to the election itself (something I find utterly ridiculous and also self-sabotaging on the part of the electorate) and because the Liberal coalition has fractured as a result.

You are aware that Coletto also just tweeted he doesn't believe Trudeau can "discipline" NDP leaners back to the Liberals this time around? He even said he's not convinced Trudeau wants the job anymore. If that were true, he would have resigned on his own terms rather than go down in flames like he is right now.

I will eat my hat if you're right on September 20th or a few days afterward, and a humiliated Justin Trudeau isn't forced to resign on election night, while Jagmeet Singh dances on stage and Outhouse O'Toole gets to make a trolling speech about shoving Trudeau into a port-a-john. If that scenario doesn't occur, and Trudeau gets to stay for a little while longer at Rideau Cottage, I will be seriously, seriously shocked.

OK, Evan, but... based on what I just read from David Akin, I'm calling BS on the "a vote for Singh isn't a vote for O'Toole" theory. Singh just said he wouldn't rule out working with him! How can a real progressive stomach such a betrayal? He's in it for power. Just like St. Jack. No, absolutely not. There is no conscience to the self-declared "conscience of Parliament."

Oh, and I don't have twitter but I want to point out that Frank Graves now sees the CPC headed to majority. That shot call did not age well at all. Trudeau is out and Canada is finished.

Singh seems to have made a very big gaffe here?
