“… The surge in popularity for Duhaime’s party comes as conservative libertarians across the country, at both the provincial and federal levels, are feeling emboldened by frustrations at pandemic restrictions.
Recent polling suggests anti-mandate libertarians, at both the federal and provincial levels, are attracting support of Canadians who are distrustful not just of government regulations, but of scientific authorities, mainstream media outlets and democratic institutions in general.
… A recent study, based on polling data, found that 50 per cent of the party’s supporters were either “convinced” or “moderate” adherents of conspiracy theories.
Among Quebec Liberal supporters, 31 per cent were classified as conspiracy theorists and so were 29 per cent of Parti Québécois supporters.
Distrustful of government regulations? That just being prudent. The government is never your friend said a wise lady I know.
Distrustful of Scientific authorities? Would they be the ones who tampered with the Alzheimer studies? Or the ones who with Big Pharma pushed meds for depression when no proof of their efficacy has been established?
Distrustful of Media! Thanks for the laugh CBC.
Distrustful of democratic institutions in general? This from the same CBC that ran with the Russia Collusion hoax for literally years?
