In USA #Obama's team oversold Hope & Change to ppl hungry for it after Bush. When he didn't transform the world, they stayed home next election & he almost lost. Then stayed home next time over disappointment that Obama didn't create an Eden on Earth. So they got #Trump.

Same thing playing out here so far. #Trudeau was a Rorschach blot for ppls individual hopes & contrast to darkness of Harper. JT could never satisfy all those expectations. 4 yrs is barely time to even start fixing some things. And tho he kept 92% of promises

voting reform wasn't one of them. Reasons why don't matter to those who think it's the most important issue of our times. And JT, like Hillary, turned out to not be perfect. So like in 2016 US election ppl are disappointed due to their own naivete & ignorance of how govt runs

and many will stay home or vote for a third party, like in US 2016, that results in #CPC getting more votes. You want that scenario, the #Trump scenario, to happen here? If not, wipe ur tears & grow up or get ready for asaults on public health care, women's rights & more.

And that will be YOUR fault, not the fault of the government you let get elected over your bruised feelings.
