Has anyone else noticed something striking about the voting on this page (thumbs up, well, I guess they are gold stars now)?

What I mean is as follows.

Under most politics stories, we see a mix of reader-votes, often with the assumed Liberal Party folks in similar numbers to the assumed Conservative Party folks.

But this board is NOTHING like that.

Look at the voting icons: It is like what, 90 percent are taking a view very much against the narrative of people like the column writer and Justin Trudeau, and are instead voting in a pattern more expected of hard-right folks.

Any idea what is going on here?

I mean, off the top of my head, two possibilities: 1. The Liberal Party folks and NDP folks are all off doing something else this afternoon, or else (and this would be troubling for Justin Trudeau) 2. We are seeing the largest rejection by Liberal Party folks of a liberal agenda that I remember ever seeing on these boards, a defection rate from the party line of colossal scale.
