You're joking, right?

Mulroney was Patrick Brown's hand-picked prize.

She is Brown-Wynne lite. A perfect example of what 15444 is saying.

Ford would be best for the province but needs to connect with rural Ontario while keeping his Toronto base happy.

Elliott may have the best elect-ability but looks old and low energy.

Granic Allan is the smartest one of the bunch by a mile but likely too low a name recognition. An absolute bulldog and very articulate.

Her campaign slogan is "Conservative - For a Change".

It would be interesting to see a current-day analysis of the correlation between the retreat of social conservatism and the increased need of social programs. Specifically in the Canadian experience, since we've historically been a liberal democracy.

I doubt that there would be any interest in doing such a study, and even less appetite for publishing the results.

However, we have world history to examine at leisure and it speaks "volumes" on the matter, if you will pardon the expression.

For me, as long as it doesn't cost the taxpayers a dime, society can be as socially liberal as it wants.

I guess that was kinda the question I was raising...
