Trudeau's Emancipation Proclamation

[L Gilbert]

Where the center is now maybe, but the whole political spectrum has been pulled to the right so the NDP now occupy what used to be the middle as can be seen in how they're no longer claiming to represent socialist policies.

Oh, you're just fulla maybes, aren'tcha?

Harper is about as radical a leader as we've had in years,

"Years" is a relative term. In one sense, he's the ONLY leader we've had in years.

his constant attacks on the foundations of our political system bring up questions about whether or not we even have a democratic system.

lol We haven't had a democracy in as long as I can remember. It's been an oligarchic plutocracy for as long as I can remember.

One of the first steps Justin Trudeau has taken is to make commitments to rebuilding much of the damage that's been done, whether or not he'll succeed is going to be determined by a lot of factors.

uhuh Seems to me Martin wrote a Red Book fulla plans n promises then flatly told everyone it was a pile of crap after the Glibs used it to get elected. So much for commitments.

We know for a fact based on his actions that Harper is anti-democratic, why even place him in the same category as Justin Trudeau? Harper is the end of a democratic Canada if he and his ideology continue much longer, Trudeau represents a possible rebirth of a democratic Canada if he comes through on his commitments.

lol I have a large chunk of waterfront land in FL I'd like to sell you. Great development potential. Almost pristine.

Yah, great.

It's politics, if you think you've got it all figured out then I'll leave you to your delusions.
