The Worst PM Ever. Period!

[Nick Danger]

Nope he is taking the party to the left to appeal to disgruntled liberals . Sadly for him that never works .

Certainly some of that too, they are politicians after all, and the anti-Trudeau sentiment is too strong to be ignored. Still, the feelings were the same when Scheer made his grab for the brass ring, but that was all he had and it wasn't enough. O'Toole is hedging his bet. Moving to the left is what they need to flush away the image of the "old boys club" that has dogged the Cons for years, the stodgy old rich, white, status quo that just isn't working any more given what's gone down in recent history.

"The Unravling of America" by Wade Davis

This is a bit of a read but it has a very interesting outline of the changes that brought us to where we are now, the decline in community ties and the rise of neo-liberalism. He explains that our current form of capitalism has swung too far to the right and is in need of a correction.

Yep he sold out the West already and took their best attack weapon and sidelined him

I'd still give O'Toole a chance as he has a more varied background & hopefully, he'd be better at the job than the current PM. Couldn't be worse, that's for sure!

You gotta be careful. I'm sure Donald Trump wasn't one of a kind!

It would likely take more than that. "You can fool some of the people all the time and all the people some of the time but you CAN'T fool all the people all the time"

Please explain - in what way is he taking conservatives to the left? Just askin....

 

[Durry]

Not sure OTool has landed on any particular side or philosophy yet other than what the other guy is doing is poor and that he would do it better, if elected.

He is taking a harder line on environmental issues, something the Conservatives have deftly sidestepped for years. He is also talking about things like shrinking private sector union membership, the increasing of unequal wealth distribution, and has taken a position that there is "No place for the far right" in his party. Now whether he is sincere in bringing the Conservatives closer to center or is just getting a head start on the coming election remains to be seen, but he's making noises you don't generally hear from Conservatives.

I think PGS is referring to appealing to Ontarians

Who cares about private sector unions , do something about public sector unions , like cancel them .

I believe Unions are very important especially in a role of ensuring and improving safety in the work place. Otherwise I believe they should stay away from management, which is the employer's responsibility at his/her expense!

Who reigns them in when they get out of control?
