Interesting how Canada and most likely Australia are rejecting their right, but the US and UK are embracing theirs.

Canada didn't really reject the right. The Conservatives got 41.3% of the vote, which is at almost historic highs, and without any other context politics watchers would expect that to net them a majority government. However, almost all the other voters coalesced around one other party.
