Sadly, we are.
All it takes is a little anti-american fake nationalism and all sins are forgiven. Especially with the boomers.
That being said, I still think this is like the fake polling bump Kamala got. Prior to Trudeau announcing his resignation, the Liberals were in #3, and we were on track for #2 to be a regional party that only exists in one province. It's still entirely possible we see a massive victory for the conservatives, and Poilievre is still on track to a majority in the latest polls regardless, the only question at the moment is how big it'll be and who'll be in #2.
There's also Canadian precedent for this. Kim Campbell was a conservative who became prime minister in a situation like this, and the polls said the conservatives could win, and the result was 15 years of Liberal dominance (and that wasn't so bad back then, it was a different party than it is today)
