Before it was a foregone conclusion. With Trudeau gone, and with Trump now president there does seem to be some hope.
Not Canadian but have a suggestion: throw him to the sea.
So basically, anything that government is doing that corporations could do, he's arguing that they should be doing, "because freedom".
I'm unconvinced that with more libertarian economic policies, I will feel more "free", and that this supposed freedom will make my life better.
Look how well it's working in the USA! I don't understand Canadians who look at the swindling, oppressive, exploitative fascist shitshow over there and decide Canada should be more like that.
WTF is this obsession with taking from those who have or get least?
"The more we let you have the less that I'll be keeping for me"
Gotta wonder if Harper still has any influence over him.
You KNOW Harper is still active behind the curtain.
Indeed; there's no doubt about it. He's chairman of the IDU, which works hard to advance right-leaning policies worldwide.

In January, he did say that Trump's threats aren't the words of "a friend," so let's hope he is working FOR our national interests...

Well he won't undergo a background check to get security clearance so I guess we'll never know who is pulling his strings!
If he does, he’ll have to pay attention to intel about how the US, and foreign influence is working to get him elected.
If I don’t know, I can’t be accountable.
