So the Cons are splitting back up into the red-tory Prog Cons and a Que-based "Reform".
Thanks milktoast Scheer (the Joe Clark of our era) and red tories. You blew it.

So we've got the Justin Competent Libs the the Trudeau-in-a-turban eNDP (nice timing dippers) scrapping for the pomo alt-left, open-borders vote, the Prog Cons back in their traditional Lib Lite roll and the Mad Max classic liberal "AfC" (which of course is now Centre Right).
Max will suck up the whole BQ/eNDP vote in Quebec, and a big chunk of what would have gone to the Libs and also what was the increasing Con vote. When Quebec swings it swings very hard, and very quickly.
The big question is, how much of the disaffected Lib/eNDP vote in the RoC that would have gone Con is Max going to be able to take?
Or in other words, exactly how pissed off and anti-elite Brexit is the Canadian electorate going to get in the next year? We're about to find out.

I thought that divisive (diverse?) politics would come to Canada 10 years after it hit the US so I'm surprised that it only took 5. At least with 3.5 parties duelling (maybe 4 if you count the Greens as .5), it will be way more interesting than the usual turgid DemRep struggles.
