From some of the early exit polls, it looks like every age demographic actually voted for the Conservatives....except for the 65+ (read: Boomers), who also were the largest voting block. And their number one issue was "Standing up to Trump" (and second was "improving healthcare"), while very other demographic were concerned with cost of living and "making Canada a better place to live."
When you combine that with the single most anti-Trump demographic in the US is also the 65+, with most others being positive (the next lowest is Millennials, where he is running dead even), Trump really does seem to have this ability to cause global Boomer Rage. And it is so fascinating to witness.
I have noticed that, maybe it's because there boomers won't admit it but they are entitled thinking they are owed retirements and pensions even at the expense of he younger generations while Trump is going 'no, you fucked things up while you were in charge, we're fixing this now even if it costs you your cushy retirement'.
