Canada is so cucked they are actually going to vote to give JT more power, likely a majority government that will rule for the next 4-5 years.

Not exactly. The governing Liberals have a minority government, which means they need the support of at least one other party to govern. If the governing party wants to trigger an election, they can just put poison pills in the budget (or another confidence vote) that are unacceptable to all the other parties

Yea, the Canadian system is based off the UK parliamentary system. There are some minor differences but overall it's very similar.
