In this episode of inFocus, David Coletto unpacks one of the most surprising shifts of the 2025 federal election: how fear of disruption—what he calls disruptophobia—has flipped the campaign narrative on its head. What began as a change election defined by frustration with the Liberals has become a search for stability in an uncertain world.

David explains how Mark Carney’s rise, Donald Trump’s return to the White House, and growing public anxiety about global chaos have reframed the ballot question. Drawing on fresh data from Abacus Data, he explores how the desire for reassurance, not revolution, is driving voter behaviour—and why Carney now leads in most polls.

If you want to understand what’s really going on beneath the surface of this campaign, and why Canadians may be choosing the lower-risk option rather than the loudest voice, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
