That seems ideal to me.

The young people in Canada, like myself, have lost faith in the Liberal government. Likewise, immigrants in Canada that have traditionally voted liberal are switching sides and voting conservative after seeing how broken Canada's economy has become and how unaffordable everything is.
Young voters are frustrated and want to see change. About 39% of Canadians aged 18 to 34 support the Conservatives, versus 36% for the Liberals, according to Nanos Research. The liberals have done such a poor job that they flipped the script and now young voters prefer conservatives over liberals and old people like yourself prefer liberal over conservative.
Poilievre’s platform is centered around affordability and that appeals to the younger generation while Carney appeals to Gen X and older. That is why Carney's messaging resonates with older Canadians.
I still believe this election is a coin toss due to the state of the economy.
