Canada is moving away from her Conservative roots, for better or for worse. That's what everyone said during the Chretien/Martin era, and then.... :rock: -J. Chretien/Martin weren’t that different from Harper. All those governments were more similar than they were different. And their shared ideolo... |

I think that President Obama said it best: Elections have consequences! So you're completely fine with Senate republicans not allowing a new Supreme Court Justice to be picked in an election year when they weren't in charge, only to turn around and allow it a month and a half right before what is l... |

Good God, don't let your own obstinance become 100% of your reasoning. Endlessly worrying about who to exclude is why I'm thankful Andrew Sneer wasn't PM when Covid hit.
