    We can’t say that. We don’t know what would’ve happened in Canada if Trump lost.

    If Trump lost:

    • Trudeau might not have resigned
    • if he did, Carney might not have became liberal leader
    • The election probably wouldn’t have even happened yet, and the campaign likely would’ve been longer when it was.
    • Every party would have run very different campaigns since the top issues wouldn’t have been US relations

    A lot of things could’ve been different, but most notably:

    • PP might not have run a Trump-esk populist attack campaign.

    For all we know PP wouldn’t be seen as “the same MAGA threat”
