From the Politically Incorrect...

Anderson will be in the photo ops and eat pancakes at the breakfast but he couldnt organize a 2 car parade.

Tom the conservatives have no one to blame BUT THEMSELVES.(Diefenbaker himself would not have voted for harper)
WE have never had a gov't leader so despised as harper.
People Voted Him OUT more than they voted the liberals in.

Tom stop looking at 'the rebel' it is bad for your mind muchlike PORN .
Tom start listening to CBC and expand your mind. The program "ideas" would be a good start.

When Harper mentioned old stock Canadians he lost his last chance to govern. That was about as politically incorrect as you can get!

Great summary Tom.

Western Canada and the region with the lowest unemployment has spoken, we approve the Conservatives.

The have-not eastern provinces/gravy train preferred the drama teacher.

Interesting times ahead.

O-88, Generally I think we more or less only did what we've ever done...

Yes the people have spoken, so after the election four years ago, how come the buckets, riders and agstars constantly complained year after year day after day about how evil, dishonest,hitler like, etc. our gov. was? Tom posted an article about our present gov. not the past so what is he supposed to get over riders? Most people who vote conservative vote for what the party stands for, philosophy, ideology, etc. imo, so bucket you think people shpuld forget what they believe in and just vote for who they think will win? That sounds like lemming philosophy to me. ( if you don't stand for something you"ll fall for anything ) And how long will the whining continue about the past conservative gov. on how they wrecked ag?I thought it was a good article,was there something that wasn't truthful about it?

I'm insulted you forgot to mention me, the Liberal Troll.

If you want posters on here to stop complaining about the Harper past, why are you agreeing with Tom's post about Justin when he hasn't even been sworn in as PM. How can anybody be passing judgement when Justin hasn't even started. To me it seems you and several posters on here have already made your minds up before the get go. Come on, your always stating how negative comments are on here, but yet you agree with Tom's post.

Stonepicker you have to be consistent, as it works both ways. Right????

Good article.

[bobofthenorth]

4 years ago all the media focused on was the "small" share of the popular vote that the Conservatives received in order to win government. This time around not a peep about the fact that the lesser of two Trudeaus has the support of well under half of Canadians.

Western Canada needs to lube up to get ready for the next 4 or likely 8 years. The combination of a radical lefty in Queens Park and a lightweight left wing nitwit in Ottawa is deadly for the west.

agstar77 - "We have an autocratic prime minister..." - there, fixed it for you!

You want to condemn Harper for being autocratic when the young Trud is no less so. In fact, he has already given ample evidence that he is more so in both his words and actions.

His words - "There's a level of admiration I actually have for China. Their basic dictatorship is actually allowing them to turn their economy around on a dime."

His words backed by his actions:"And I answered why I was not worried that that was going to happen, because the green-light process that we have established makes it clear that all Liberal MPs, regardless of their personal views, would be expected to vote pro-choice," Trudeau said.

And all that before he is even PM?

The most bloody awful, revolting characteristic of the left is its sheer hypocrisy and shallowness.

Nothing but empty criticism of Harper, not a single shred of evidence offered of how he harmed your interests.

agstar77: "When Harper mentioned old stock Canadians he lost his last chance to govern. That was about as politically incorrect as you can get!"

If you looked at the 1st CBC link about Trudeau's open admiration of a dictatorship, you will notice that the ones most offended by his expressed ideals(and rightly so) were "new-stock" Canadians who knew, likely from first-hand experience, what it meant to live under a dictatorship.


The young pup has a bit to learn and it appears that before he is through, your own education will get a bit broader as well.
