He's a closet Liberal. He just hasn't come out yet.
Just because you disagree with him doesn't mean he's a liberal.

That, in a nutshell, is what's wrong with the Conservatives - or any Church, for that matter: Herd thinkingHe's a closet Liberal. He just hasn't come out yet.

Trans Pacific Partnership.. the most recent of the eviscerating Free Trade Agreements that both the Conservatives and Liberals have enacted since the 1980s that has put the Canadian economy into a death spiral. That stems directly for 18th Century Classic (Imperial) British Liberalism.
All of the recent Conservative Policies are in informed by American Tea Party idiots.. gun nuts, libertarians.. has nothing to do with Conservatism. In fact they are pawns of the Global Free Market Oligarchy. And they have completely, EXCEPT for lip service.. abandoned all Conservative moral issues.. such as abortion or the protection of (real) marriage.
They are Dolts and Quislings.. like Harper.
I'm talking about Canada. And the War on Drugs is hardly a redneck moron policy. It might be a poorly thought out or executed policy, but hardly drooling redneck. Rednecks do drugs too yuh know.
You're quite right. I stand corrected. He is ill informed, bigoted and ignorant.
Free trade is actually a good thing iverall.
My concern was more with its dabbling in identity politics (telling women what to wear, barbaric cultural practices hotline, going over the top in national security laws, etc.
Its problem did not lie in its trade policies. If anything I'd like to see the other parties adopt free trade.

So you agree he's a conservative.
So was I. ANd it is something only a drooling moron could have thought up.
So you agree he's a conservative.
No. But well done. Nice play on words. That was definitely worth a chuckle.
Another improvement to the CPC would be to allow a free vote on abortion laws. Harper was wrong in whipping his MPs on this matter.

Same for prostitution laws. Imprisonment might be excessive, but a hefty fine that doubles for each repeat offence is more than reasonable given the social harm that it causes.
Better regulation of the advertising of such services is needed too. The CPC had totally overlooked the international and interjurisdictional nature of the Internet when it had drafted its prostitution laws.
Free vote on same sex marriage would be a step forward too.
It's interesting that he's a conservative but conservatives can't engage him on their own ground. .
I wonder how far things will have to disassemble before people realize they are being scammed by labels. Virtually every mainstream Party now promotes policies that will bring on an inevitable crisis of historic proportions.
They undermine all that as positive and vital in the nation and replace it with sinister sophistry and failed promises. These policies ride a Pale Horse.. and on it rides Death.. The West and its Culture of Death is careening towards a reckoning.
Both the issue, of abortion and SSM were voted upon. Stephen Harper respected the outcome of the vote and said it would not be revisited.
Very pretty lady and talented too.
How do you explain that when Canada promoted protectionism, so did the provinces, and provinces started breaking down their trade barriers only when Canada eventually turned to free trade?
I don't follow the logic. How is trade bad between states but good between provinces? Given that it's the same thing, it should logically be bad in both cases or good in both cases.The best trade policies diminish those within a nation and promote internal competition.. while reinforcing those at its borders. But to make that work you have to have national economic policy and a strong federalist bias at the Parliamentary level. We haven't had either in a long time.
