A broken voting system, plus weaponized apathy. He got 66+% of the seats in Ontario's Parliament with 17% of eligible voters choosing their local conservative candidate.

Published polls for MONTHS before the election showed he was going to win by a landslide -- so people stayed home, thinking it was pointless. They're doing it in the USA right now with slanted polls showing it's a toss-up, even though exit polls show that the majority of early voters are women.
