In case you've been wondering how the bloke who lost the last election is doing, the answer seems to be not very well. Here his answer to Trump starting a trade war with Canada (which makes both sides poorer) is... cut a swathe of taxes. Zero capital gains tax?! And approving every project that's before the government. I'm a bit of a YIMBY myself, but that sounds a bit much. Aren't there, er, budget implications if nothing else?

In fairness to Pierre, he's romping home in the polls.

The Liberals lead the Conservatives by 11 points, but only one day of tracking took place after Trump's latest trade-war escalation with Canada.
How's the trade war going to help him?
