2021 Canadian Federal Election


The Blood

Recommended Posts

Elizabeth May makes her final appearance of the campaign in British Columbia in Vancouver, stating that a Green future is possible at 20% of the vote and rising. She thanks all members of the Green campaign and that no matter the result, she would be proud of their effort and the campaign the Greens had ran.

Annamie Paul makes her almost last stop in Atlantic Canada, giving a last push for the Greens in the area. She encourages voters to get out and vote Green for the next Parliament. She says that with a strong Green contingent, they could meaningfully impact votes.

She makes her last stop in Toronto, Ontario itself. She delivers her message of change for the government, stating that the NDP will not deliver any change, saying they have been dragged back to the center by Mulcair. Now the Greens are the party of the left and change.

The Bloc will campaign against the Liberals to force a hung parliament.

Yves Francois Blanchet will campaign all over Quebec like crazy.

So will François Legault.

Trudeau will team up with Jean Chretien as they hit Quebec for the last time in the campaign. Trudeau and Chretien will appear in multiple rallies across the province joining together on the first and last ones.

The Liberals will deploy Chrysia Freeland to tour Ontario for the campaigns last leg. Hitting various locations and holding rallies with several big name MPs the Liberals double down on the province.

Trudeau will take action on the campaigns final day. Drawing in as much media attention and as big an audience as possible the Prime Minister will give a heartening speech on the Liberal cause and its unique position for Canada and its citizens.

Mulcair will finish the campaign back home in Quebec where he talks about respecting province authority

Singh will visit the prairies and meet with indigenous leaders

Singh heads back to British Columbia and finish strong in Burnaby

Quebec: 9. The rhetoric lands well, appealing to Quebecois progressives concerned about the autonomy of Quebec, but still open to Federal parties.

 

Prairies: 1! Singh has a scheduling error and decides to send Mulcair instead to meet with the indigenous leaders. As could be expected after Tom's drunken rant about indigenous culture, this is not taken well at all.

 

British Columbia: 3. The NDP receives a poor reception in British Columbia, with many progressives and committed leftists having turned on the party during the campaign, with both the Green's success and the inclusion of Tom Mulcair as a surrogate.

 

Overall: -3. As the election closes, the NDP receives a poor yet not disastrous end to their campaign, making gains in Quebec but struggling elsewhere.

British Columbia: 10! The Greens are pumped and energetic as the election closes, ready to work at the last hour to ensure the Green Party receives every vote it can get. May's final appearance motivates and brings hope to the party, especially in British Columbia.

 

Atlantic Canada: 7. Where the Greens first started to jump forward into success, Paul ends the campaign well, motivating Green activists and drawing in those still undecided in the area.

 

Toronto: 1! Paul is met with a crowd of NDP hecklers who boo her off stage and cause her to leave Toronto temporarily as the election closes.

 

Overall: +2. The Greens end their campaign with wounded success, mobilizing their full strength in British Columbia and gaining across the coast, but suffering a major blow in Toronto.

Liberals: 4. The Liberals have already been dragged through the mud in Quebec this election, the Bloc's assault does little and is seen as opportunistic by most.

 

Blanchet: 2. Blanchet is hounded by low turnout to his events and a nonenergetic apathy to the Bloc everywhere he goes in Quebec.

 

Legault: 8. Legault, on the other hand, energizes the Bloc's campaign and mobilizes voters ahead of the election.

 

Overall: -1.  The Bloc sees two blunders as the election ends, but these wounds turn into minor cuts thanks to Legault's campaign across Quebec, shielding the party from the worst as voting booths are prepared.

Jay Hill arrives back home in his home riding of Prince George-Peace River, and delivers a speech to his party faithful and campaign team (that is also recorded in audio and video) at his campaign headquarters:

"This election may see the Liberals re-elected, or it may see the Conservatives take office. It may even, looking at these polls, take the downright frightening and strange twist of a New Democratic-Green coalition. The Bloc may even be a kingmaker. Our results in this election are looking disappointing, but this is only our first. And all of the other parties have only to lose under the harsh and critical judgement of the voters in this new Parliament. And all of them will increase and build-up Western alienation. For us, it is only the beginning! We have only to go up from here!"

Closing Speech: 9/30(Since I'm counting this as all 3 of your events). The Mavericks close their campaign with a whimper, as the party seems to lose its energy and enthusiasm in the final few days. 

 

Overall: -6. The Mavericks end their part in the race with declining strength, as the members of the party anxiously wait to see how they'll fair in the Federal election to come.

Beauce x3

Fuck this RP, Fuck the Dice, Fuck my Life.

Beauce: 15/30. Nothing seems to go especially right, nothing seems to go especially wrong for Mad Max in Beauce.

 

Overall: 0. After an election of struggle, failure, and mediocrity, the PPC ends its campaign expecting little.

(Liberal and Conservative rolls were saved for last. Respect the drama, folks)

Quebec: 6. Trudeau and Chretien receive a fair and respectable reception in Quebec, after a campaign of constant hits in the province, especially on the debate stage.

 

Ontario: 2. Hecklers, low event turnout, and uninterested voters plague Freeland as she tours Ontario.

 

The Final Speech: 4. Trudeau seems nervous throughout the speech, stumbling over his words at points and making for an unsuccessful closer to the campaign.

 

Overall: -3. While the Liberal campaign doesn't crash, more could've been hoped for as they suffer a number of blows in the final days of the race.

Kevin attacks Trudeau in Newfoundland.

O'Toole brings a hopeful message to the people in Ottawa. 

O'Toole brings it home back to the strongholds in the Alberta. 

Newfoundland: 1! Kevin is confronted by a Liberal activist while tearing into Trudeau, who then, on camera, refutes all of his points in a heated debate with the surrogate. Finally, after a few minutes of failing to penetrate the activist's arguments, Kevin will walk of stage in a fuming state.

 

Ottawa: 5. O'Toole receives a standard and mediocre reception in Ottawa.

 

Alberta: 9. O'Toole closes the campaign with a strong appearance in Alberta.

 

Overall: -1. While Kevin's heated argument in Newfoundland hangs over the Conservative campaign, they end the race in a respectable position, suffering a minor amount of damage from the controversy thanks to success elsewhere.

Results Timeline:

Well, it looks we have finally arrived at the end of our RP, and the time has come for results. Because of the nature of how I ran the RP, counting provincial and riding(as you guys campaigned in individual ridings) scores, my plan is to do results province-by-province, with Atlantic Canada and the Territories both combined into single sets of results. My plan is to start tomorrow night or Sunday, depending on when I'm available, and continuing on through Sunday off-and-on(because I do have plans on Sunday which will require breaks in the flow of results), hopefully finishing that day or continuing on into Monday as I can until we have a finished election. Hopefully this will be done cleanly and easily, and thank you all!

National Turnout Rolls: 

Green Party: 8. The Green Party mobilized its voters effectively as the election approached, building a voter outreach operation which ensured that on Election Day, it was Green voters who were the ones showing up at the ballot box in strength.

 

Conservative Party: 7. While they didn't achieve the strength of the Green turnout operation, the Conservative Party did generate a strong enough ground game and plentiful enough anti-Trudeau rhetoric to motivate their base into going out to the polls.

 

Maverick Party: 7. One of the benefits of being a small, minor party is that even when the tide seems to turn, your small base can be just as dedicated as before, showing up with motivation to stick it to the government in Ottawa and the tyranny of eastern Canada.

 

Bloc Quebecois: 4. With off-and-on success throughout the race, the Bloc failed to motivate its base into coming out in strength this election, with many Quebecois entranced by the clash of the Federal parties. Still, the Bloc didn't suffer disastrous turnout as the polls opened, so no immediate crisis seems likely.

 

People's Party of Canada: 4. After an election of bitter losses and mediocrity, it's no surprise the PPC's base was not especially motivated into coming out to vote. Still, the diehards showed up, and no matter what the party's seat count is likely to not be changed.

 

New Democratic Party: 3. The NDP has not had the best of fortunes this election, and as voting finally began it became apparent the party's energy and strength had been sapped by the rapid rise of the Greens and an on-the-whole mediocre performance on the trail. The NDP did not inspire or motivate its base to show up this election.

 

Liberal Party: 2. Perhaps Liberal voters were still living off the high of Trudeau's long-gone double-digit lead, and decided their vote wasn't needed. But whatever the cause, the Liberal campaign utterly failed to bring its base out to vote, and is now waiting anxiously to see the consequences of this failure.

Don't think this means results especially soon, just that they're being worked on.

O'toole under the advise of strategists will propose a coalition between the NDP and Bloc. 

Offering numerous concessions concerning provincial autonomy, and for the NDP, issues concerning the environment and cabinet positions corresponding such concessions.

The Greens condemn the NDP for joining a Conservative-led government and say they have completed their journey to becoming another say something do another party in Ottawa. Annamie Paul thanks voters for trusting the Greens to represent them, and say that they have already been proven right so far. She says the Greens are ready to prove capable opposition to this coalition of chaos taking up the mantle in Ottawa. Paul comments that she hopes the Bloc will stand up for environmental causes for Quebec. She says she is humbled and pleased to be returning an astounding 36 Green MPs - an 11 fold increase, and that their influence has only begun.

The NDP releases statement.

Tom Mulcair is now permanently appointed leader of the NDP throughout this coalition. The party also talks about holding the Conservatives to account on key issues. This coalition is about stability during a time of crisis and until COVID-19 is eradicated, the NDP will support the Tory government.

The Bloc is looking at whether Trudeau or O'Toole will give more benefits to Quebec & will interfere less in stuff like Bill 21. They will also talk about the environment.

O'tooles position on Bill 21 and provincial autonomy are clear. Afterall... it is the liberals making the mess of what is clearly a provincial right.

He also points out the liberal offer immediately proposes another election. Clearly in denial of the current result. Along with their green accomplices.

Conservatives are the only party attempting to move forward.

The Bloc is definitely attracted to O'Toole, but it waits for Trudeau to deliver his position as well.

Trudeau states that at this moment what is most important for Quebec is stability, and should this unworkable parliament be forced to drag on then the nation will simply be forced through hard times and instability. Trudeau is asking for no compromise on any of the Bloc's views, he is simply asking for support to call an election so as to create a parliament that will be stable enough for Canada and Quebec to prosper rather than become bogged down in gridlock

If the Maverick and People's Party had each gotten a seat or two each, we could pragmatically prop up the Conservatives with a razor-thin majority in exchange for concessions which even O'Toole would likely be a bit uncomfortable with. But alas! 😛 

What concessions out of curiosity?

The Bloc will join the Conservative government because we already had an election and wonders about the idea of another election since the motive of this election seems rather questionable and doing another election sounds chaotic - you know like Israel - so better form a government, and see if this works. If O'Toole ends up being bad for Quebec, the Bloc will support the Liberals next time. They will also be ready to pressure O'Toole to support pro-environmental policies.
