Watching Conservative leadership debate...

Just threw that in there about questionong Oh'leery's Canadianism.

I don't think Oh'leery will conduct himself like Trump. And won't let much get under his skin. And not as reactionary as Trump. Let's see if the media is against or for him or how much "useless" ammunition Kevin gives them to use against him.

I personally believe we are going to get two terms of the present "celebrity" before government gets a new ruling party.

Let's hope we do better at choosing our next leader than our American cousins did. And that goes for our current one as well. How about putting qualifications before popularity!

Ignatieff might have been an elitist, but Oleary is "Just Visiting". He spends a lot of time in the USA and that's what the other Con/Reformer candidates will focus on.

Just wondering what was Oleary's point about flashing the video of him unloading a magazine into a target? Was he trying to prove to the rest of us he's some sort of a tough guy? Oh look at me I can handle a gun, WTF!!

.....but we live in times where appearance means more that substance.


Whoa...I just quoted my own post! Is that allowed?

O'Leary is dead in the water. To be so insensitive as to post that video when the memorial service was going on, mon dieu! Trump isn't the most sensitive creature but O'Leary is done now.

I feel like we are living in a war zone between two polarized sneering giants. . On one hand, we have JT giving away the store and completely disregarding immigrant quotas to appease the Middle East (for what reason, who knows) and the other hand we are seeing a push-back from the other side. And here we are, in the middle, the plucked chicken that Farmaholic posted to me. That's kinda how I feel.

Chong believes we Should have a Price on Carbon, most provinces except Alta and Sask believe this as well.
This is Post Flat Earth thinking...... If you want to beat Trudeau ,you need a Progressive Conservative ,not a Dinosaur

Taking in refugees from war zones is done for humanitarian reasons. Immigration is used to grow the economy because of low birth rates. Whether you agree with either is dependent on your values.

I think nothing more needs to be said when carbon tax loving socialists are cheering for Chong.

He is clearly in the wrong party with his proposed wealth distribution weather tax plan.

Bang on Oliver88. Chong should run for NDP Leader, much better fit IMO. Policy wise, Bernier has a lot of good ideas but I haven't researched much about his previous political baggage. O'Leary for finance minister?

[mustardman]

So Oliver, I guess you would call Brian Mulroney a socialist for Getting Acid rain stopped from the US. He convinced Regan (who thought Ducks caused it- WTF )

[Oliver88]

LOL....now why would the Conservative party want to nominate someone that the NDP would endorse. 😂

Mustardman how is the search going for the next NDP leader?
