I think that our young people today are more conservative, more hardworking, and have more common sense than maybe any generation since the Second World War.

Lucky you.

The young people in Canada

The ones I meet, they want to start families, own homes, and take responsibility.

The ones I meet when I go to a coffee shop and I talk to the barista or I go to a restaurant and talk to the waitress, I'm not talking about at conservative rallies.

I'm talking about it on shop floors and in retail outlets across the country where I meet young people and they're the ones being held back.

We won, by the way, we won the youth vote.

In fact,

We have our election body, Elections Canada, runs elections in the high schools.

They are mock elections, but all of them participate.

Now, some people say, oh, this is trivial stuff.

We're talking about like every high school student.

We won the high school vote.

They voted conservative.

Wow.

And this is the first time that the high schoolers voted differently than their parents in the general election.

And it's on election day.

So young people today in Canada, I believe, are grounded in a desire to work hard, to unleash their ambitions.

And so I'm actually very optimistic about our upcoming generation.

It's not, okay.
