Never forget this man got us more heavily involved in the War in Afghanistan, and then cut benefits to veterans, and closed down several VA offices. During a time when soldiers returning from a literal war needed greater assistance. All to balance a budget...which he never did.
The Afghan war cost us $10 Billion plus all the lives and lifetime suffering of soldiers. The Taliban came back into government just a few years later. Zero result!
While I attended Rally's against many conservative policies in the last decade and a half, campaigned on behalf of NDP candidates both federally and provincially, Trump seems to be consuming all of the conversation around elections. Now I need to know what Carney can do for the poor & unemployed?
I think many of the problems today can be traced back to Mulroney and how he governed and then collapsed the party's support at the end of his second term. That put the wind in the sails of the Reform Party and spelled the end of the Progressive Conservatives as they were.

Poilievre added unhealthy doses of corporate fascism and hate and voilà - today's CPC.
