This swing was bound to happen and it's mainly because of the regressive left. It's one of the factors as to why Trump won and led to this rise in "populism". I have no issue with Conservative governments or Liberal governments, as long as they don't go too far right or left. In Ontario's case, I understand why they elected Ford, $15B deficit, higher taxes, expenses have gone through the roof, and Wynne was seen as an SJW which turned a lot of people off (outside Toronto of course). But yeah, Ford isn't far right at all, Trump isn't far right at all, but the parties in Europe and the new government in Brazil? keep an eye out on that because that's more worrisome.
This also brings up an interesting question that is in the political science world, I don't know how many of you studied it or are involved in politics everyday like me. But the question is that *if* these trends continue, would you rather have a "far right" nationalist party or a far left regressive communist party?
