He has policies? Actually he has harper's policies as he is harper's lap dog.
I always hear him talking about common sense policies but he never actually says what they are.
I think it’s insane that Canada’s conservatives are looking at the American republicans and wanting to copy the shitshow that’s going on there.
Common sense. While driving in Canada you drive in the right side of the road. That’s common sense.
Basic needs in life on Earth or deemed necessities are common sense. That’s common sense. Not bullshit politically driven capitalistic ideology.
I think common sense is used as a Rorschach test in this situation because he can not talk about his policies and let supporters fill in the blanks and see what they want to see.
I wouldn’t say that, Harper stopped him a few times for being too extreme
Like when he wanted to change rules around how much money parties were allowed to spend on robot phone calls as well as limit the powers of Elections Canada to oversee fairness in elections
So you completely agree that he is under the control of stephen harper.
No, there’s a difference between him being an MP under Harper and being a PM
