You mean, how dare I help those douchebags?

I dunno.

Too honest I guess.

Cons don't realize their own base is more libertarian and the Liberals are capitalizing on that. Con support is contracting because they are too authoritarian now.

They need to stay away from social issues and continue their free market mantra if they want to keep their numbers up. Otherwise, they are just playing into Justin the young, saving Canada from Harper the dictator.

The Boomers will be out in force in the vote (seniors always are) and the Gen X & Yers as they are the de facto middle class.

Justine and the libs have no policy or platform. All that exists are some photo-ops and his jokes about the deaths in the Ukranian riots and admiration of brutal dictators.

... If the libs are looking to become a party again, they'll need more than Justine hosting wine and cheese events asking the ladies about their favorite virtues

He could walk on water, heal the sick and raise the dead, but he is a liberal, so pay him no attention. Funny thing is, Jesus was a socialist and the cons love him. Go figure.

But he doesn't heal the sick, walk on water or raise the dead, does he?

He hosts Justin Unplugged evenings that are more of an insult to women and tribute to his vanity than anything else.

It may be a helluva way to get laid, but won't do much for his election chances

Might if he's a bit more than satisfactory and doesn't just roll off to sleep ;-)

Justin Trudeau rolling papers prove a big hit

OTTAWA—A Toronto marijuana activist is doing a brisk trade in rolling papers stamped with Justin Trudeau’s face — and he has the Conservatives to thank for the idea.

Chris Goodwin, manager of Vapor Central in Toronto, has sold more than $500 worth of Trudeau-stamped rolling papers in a little more than a day since they hit the shelves in his marijuana-smoking lounge.

He says he got the idea from reading a story last week in the Star, featuring leaked Conservative plans to disrupt the Liberals’ convention in Montreal this weekend.

One of the gimmicky” tactics discussed by the Conservatives in the memo was a plan to ridicule Trudeau’s pro-legalization policies on marijuana by handing out Zig Zag brand rolling papers at the convention, embossed with Trudeau’s face.

But one person’s attack ad can be another person’s entrepreneurial inspiration — not to mention a financial windfall.

Goodwin said that the more he thought about the “low tactic,” the more it seemed like a good way to have a little political fun with marijuana. He played around with some images and created his own rolling papers, featuring a black-and-white portrait of Trudeau smoking a marijuana cigarette.

The product had an instant “cool factor,” Goodwin says, and more than 100 packs were sold within about 36 hours after they went up for sale for $3.95 each at Vapor Central on Monday morning. They’re also available for sale online at theherbcollective.com.

Several of Vapor Central’s patrons will also be delegates at this weekend’s convention in Montreal, and Goodwin says he’s sending some boxes with them for distribution there.

Goodwin says he’s not sure why the Conservatives figured that Trudeau rolling papers would make the Liberal leader look bad.

“Most people are saying this is a positive thing,” said Goodwin. “These are great collectors’ items.”

Justin Trudeau rolling papers prove a big hit

When I read that idea, I thought "Someone with the Conservatives is a complete moron.....this amounts to advertising FOR Justin Trudeau".

Got a link to that Jesus was a socialist thing ? Last I recall Jesus died long before Marx wrote his manifesto .

I think the Jesus being socialist thing is because he was kinda like Robin Hood.

Take from the rich and give to the poor?

Well he did advocate the rich giving to the poor.

I'm pretty sure you can do that without literally having to rob someone.



Obviously.

Marx's manifesto was Communism. Socialism existed long before - just didn't have a name other than "caring"

Not if one is a tightwad....

Tightwad The definition of a liberal do-gooder . Always willing to spend someone else's money .


Yup no one cared prior to government socialising areas of our economy .


Nope no hospitals prior to medicare . Nope no charities assisting the poor and disenfranchised prior to government programs .
Nope none at all .


Nobody cared nobody helped .

Good point, pretty much the same thing... Both 'advocate' towards charitable donations... One just does that at the point of a knife and the other doesn't... So, in the end, they are identical

Ah, c'mon. You think when he whipped the moneychangers out of the temple, the disciples didn't snap up a few coins?

Gotta wonder if the money changers didn't look upon those as loans (at a preferred rate of course)

The problem is on this subject the voters will side with those who want to move on
The Tories are clinging to their base not realizing the rest are moving away from
them. The time has come to replace this government it is dismantling the social
fabric of the things we fought for over the past sixty years and people are catching
on. Why is it the ordinary people have their portion of the pie diminished while the
upper crust gets additional scoops of raisins in the cereal box
On the subject of rolling the folks are with Trudeau
