Mad Max is Right About Conservatives Being Liberal Light

Originally approved under Harper until the Libs. stuck their noses into them with not enough review crap
Andrew Scheer says getting Canadians to know his name is a ‘monumental challenge’
Stephen Harper was prime minister of Canada from February 2006 until November 2015.
Enbridge’s Alberta Clipper (Line 67) pipeline expansion from Hardisty, Alberta, to Wisconsin was approved in 2006 and construction was completed on April 1, 2010.
Also completed in 2010 is Enbridge’s Southern Lights Pipeline from Manhattan, Illinois, up to Edmonton. That pipeline — covering a length of 2,556 km — transports diluent to Edmonton to aid in shipping bitumen through pipelines.
Then there’s the Mount Robson & Jasper Park Expansion, also known as the Anchor Loop Project. Construction on that Kinder Morgan project began in August 2007, adding a 158-km section of pipeline to the existing Trans Mountain pipeline system between Hinton and Hargreaves, B.C., near Mount Robson Provincial Park. It included twinning a part of the pipeline system across Jasper National Park, which won Kinder Morgan an award.
Also, a portion of TransCanada’s Keystone pipeline was approved in 2006 and was completed in 2010 taking crude from Alberta to Nebraska spanning a whopping 4,324 km.
The so-called XL portion of that pipeline has been controversial and long delayed but was approved by President Donald Trump.
Enbridge’s Northern Gateway pipeline was also approved under the Harper government, but Trudeau killed that pipeline once he became prime minister. Surely, he can’t blame that on his predecessor?
Trudeau plain wrong about Harper's pipeline legacy
Your argument is so ridiculously flawed, it's laughable.
The respect and admiration of....no one, except Mentalfloss.
Don't forget the Line 9 reversal from Sarnia to Montreal was approved in the same time frame under a lot of scrutiny
Let's see you provide a link to your bullshite......
“According to his own government’s projections,” the study concludes, Trudeau “will increase per person federal debt by 5% from 2015 to 2019 — the largest increase of any prime minister whose time in office didn’t include a world war or economic recession.”

What are you talking about? Budgets balance themselves ...fiscal restraint is for chumps, just ask Trudeau.
Justin Trudeau is no Paul Martin. Paul Martin was more fiscally conservative than some Conservatives even. Trudeau sure blew that one out of the water.
And thanks for the Green, Walter.

Stephen Harper is the most LIED ABOUT leader in Cdn history!
Consider:
The bottom line on Isis and Syria and Muslims and immigration generally-once you dig down to the opinions of REAL Cdns-as opposed to the thoughts of special interest groups such as immigration lawyers, poverty pimps/social workers and Lie-beral party swine who want to exploit immigrants in exchange for votes and power and be damned to the welfare of Canada is this::::
HARPER WAS RIGHT!!!! The ordinary Cdn wants to see an end to the suffering in the Middle East, wants to see a happy and prosperous end to the violence......AND ordinary Cdns want to see Muslims STAY in their home countries and not come to Canada!
Cdns are concerned that too many immigrants now come to Canada simply looking for access to OUR money. Special interest groups of various stripes already demand too much of our money for affordable housing, special training, welfare and support for a mob of kids often coming in numbers far in excess of what the parents can reasonably support.
Cdns especially fear that radical Muslims will alter life in Canada with their rabid religious demands. Muslims here in Ontari-owe have already approached the Lie-beral govt in hope of getting their Sharia Law imposed on Muslims in Ontari-owe. As Sharia Law is a harsh backward step for women’s rights, Lie-berals realized they had been handed a political time bomb and refused.....but if enough Muslims immigrate to Ontari-owe then Sharia Law WILL be voted in......and with enough votes Sharia Law will be imposed on ALL Cdn women-not just Muslims!
And Cdn government is currently spending something like 250-350 MILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR to keep full time security eyes on approximately 250 suspected terrorists that our Lie-beral dominated immigration system has let into the country but who are deemed by security experts as too dangerous to be allowed loose unsupervised and yet the Lie-berals scream racist if Harper govt moves to deport any of these dangerous types.
Lie-beral minded hypocrites want to cosy up to potentially dangerous newcomers in exchange for votes and yet it will be Lie-berals who scream loudest and accuse the govt and cops of incompetence if a terror attack occurs here!
So, the Harper Conservative policy of helping to contain Isis by bombing and trying to create safe areas for Middle Eastern inhabitants is the right one and best for Canada. If Muslims are safe and happy in their current homes then they won’t want or NEED to come here and wont be out on the ocean in flimsy boats risking life and limb in desperation!
And they DON’T really want to come here-one has only to look at the experience of Mohammed Shafia who brought his 2 wives, 2 daughters and 1 son to Canada and ended up murdering the first wife and both daughters......Muslim women who get a look at the way Cdn women live often undergo a crisis of faith-they no longer want to strictly follow Muslim Sharia law and want to live with the freedoms enjoyed by Cdn women.....which prompts sometimes violent conflict within the family. Letting Mohammad Shafia into Canada is going to cost us about FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS PER YEAR in jail house expenses to keep Mohammed, his son and surviving wife locked up for the murders they committed! At $125,00.00 EACH per year for jail costs plus about 3 MILLION DOLLARS for the murder trial to lock them away, they are not a bargain! And we cannot afford any more such `deals`!
Nobody wants to see refugees suffer and we CAN help with that....sending winter coats to Syria as the boy with the nice hair has suggested is a fine start, but what they really need is peace and stability and steady jobs in THEIR homelands and defeating groups like Isis and deposing brutal Syrian dictator Assad who likes to lob poison gas at his enemies will help! Very few Cdns want more Muslims to come to Canada as its like mixing oil and water.....and not good for either one! Only Mulcair and Trudope support the policy of do nothing and let the economy and world messes sort themselves out!
I really have a hard time understanding why so many conservative on CC deny the amount Harper added to the national debt. It is a matter of public record.
No matter how you add it up, Harper’s fiscal record is a catastrophe

Some LIE-beral wants to say Paul Martin was fiscally Conservative???????????????????
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Apparently some LIE-beral space cadet has just come back from Alpha Centauri and the radiation in the Van Allen Belt has leaked through is tinfoil hat and left him rather confused!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Paul Martin was the finance minister who wrote up a bunch of new tax laws restricting capital from leaving the country without paying HEFTY Taxes and export duties---- and left enough loopholes in his law to take a billion dollars worth of Canada Steamship Lines ASSETS- left to him by his dear Daddy- OUT OF CANADA WITHOUT PAYING ANY TAXES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The one that is bullshit?
What the liberals did with the debt more closely resembles a game of three card Monty than paying bills.see Cpp and EI theft.
In fairness he did close most of the loopholes imitately afterwards.
It's not like he does much to help himself.
OTOH, the best policy for the Conservatives is to say and do nothing
until the election, just let PM Sox virtue signal himself to oblivion.
You don't understand why a group of conbot sheep act like conbot sheep?
They've become victims of their own cowardice and converted from right wing, fiscal conservatives to nationalist Trumpanzees.
The truth is that deep, deep down, these idiots want to live in the 1950s again and it's old culture and social conservativism that's driving them.
They will disguise it with any other policy associated with the platform - nationalism, libertarianism or fiscal conservativism - but at the end of the day, it's about leave it to beaver and father knows best.
They're stuck in a cultural loop from the past and they can't let go - even while their own party of choice is becoming more liberal.
That's why you get guys like Walter who are perpetually angry.
