    O’Toole wasn’t perfect, but at least I felt that, if he won, I wouldn’t be ashamed of my country. I could genuinely have told myself: “well, let’s see how this goes!”

    Dang, never thought I’d say that I missed a Conservative, but I indeed do miss O’Toole…

      There seems be an awful lot of people saying things like this about O’Toole… Maybe if all you guys had voted for the CPC in 2021 we wouldn’t be where we are now

        I don’t think they were voting for CPC in any case, their point was that at least then the CPC alternative wasn’t simply shameful.

        We would be in a much worse position. The CPC hasn’t had a spare neuron to dedicate to policy since Harper stepped down.

          Yes, because all the neurons the Liberals and NDP have been devoting to policy have been working correctly. People love massively increased grocery and housing costs, and the massive increase in rate as well!

            And what ideas has the CPC put forth? Crypto currency? The fake money that regularly dumps thousands of dollars in value because of reasons?

            Edit: Forgot to add, they want “parental rights” that interfere with the rights of everyone but a minority of parents.
