Cons are pro-immigration in terms of strict value-based immigrants. Even Harper admitted that the Canadian immigration system (not the refugee system) was designed to bring in Conservative voters.
Immigrants to Canada are skilled, have money, and buy property.
He's declined in the past, and he's more of a gallery sniper, he is designed as an attack dog. Running the country isn't about making good soundbites in Question Period, which, don't get me wrong, PP is great at, but I think he understands the mantle of leadership is not meant for him.
All you need is a common enemy. Jews, a Virus, an enemy Nation, Communism, whatever. If you'll justify extreme actions to destroy that enemy, you'll justify giving the government extreme power to enact that destruction. History tells us that, once given, the government seldom lets go of such power.
Just know that in most cases where the country went to shit because of absurd levels of government power - the people saw it coming for decades, and the people gave them that power.
No need. Just lose the election in 2023, hold off explaining anything till then, then when whatever government that wins tries to dig us out of the hole with austerity measures, bitch so hard at the "hardships" that you're actually the source of - then secure a quick majority the next election that lasts another decade.
-Using the other pipelines, we aren't really at max pipeline capacity yet, keystone still exists, keystone XL was an expansion
-Canadians buy canadian-made cars, generally
-The tariff every time it's implemented the WTC finds its a violation and the US walks it back, Clinton tried (failed), Obama tried (failed), Trump tried (failed), and this is Biden's attempt. It's more tradition than anything.
Cool, the chinese-communist-party-admirer and the guy who was given AB on a silver platter now spend my money for child care when I have no children.
Great. This almost makes me want to vote for Notley - at least she and her party are honest about their communist inklings.
Well it's not about conservatism, it's about winning. The cons are just as liable as the feds of spending public funds on largesse for the voters. You can't afford to be principled if your principles can be sacrificed for a few thousand more voters.
CSIS sees ‘unprecedented’ increase in violent online rhetoric during COVID

That's right. Covid in no way precedented these events. How could people possibly be angry with the ways politicians handled COVID? It's simply not possible.

I'm against him running, but I won't cry if he wins. I just don't think an attack dog like him is going to be so good on the defense.
Prior to this, he could attack easy targets from the leisure of his comfy seat in parliament. Now, he's going to have to defend himself. I've never seen a Polvierre on the back foot.
