NICKELBACK’s MIKE KROEGER: ‘To Get Too Emotionally Involved In Politics Is A Real Fool’s Errand. There’s No Benefit To It.’

Nickelback bassist Mike Kroeger said people should vote according to their conscience, accept the result and hope elected leaders help their countries thrive. Speaking about tensions between Canada and the United States, he described the two neighbours as going through a difficult period that he expects will pass.

Kroeger said political coverage gives people incomplete information, making strong emotional reactions unhelpful in his view. He said leaders are temporary, that he respects people who disagree with him and that opposing views can still contain valid points. The interview also mentions Nickelback’s planned 2027 tour and eleventh album, due on 30 October; the supplied article text ends partway through the tour details.
