**Canada's Got Talent, election edition**
3rd 🥉 — Carney's happy dance to Down with Webster.
2nd 🥈 — May's sweet musical duet with her husband.
1st 🥇 — Poilièvre's gracious concession speech.
It was reassuringly normal: he thanked his supporters, acknowledged the legitimacy of the result, congratulated Carney, and called for unity.
We used to take this bit of political ritual for granted, but down in the U.S. recently we've seen how bad things get it if doesn't happen.
