    So many loud uneducated buffoons.

    I’ve always understood that you never refer to the Prime Minister by only their name, that’s just rude and lacks any class. It wasn’t “Justin” or “Trudeau”, it was Prime Minister Trudeau or Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

    The cons are really the party of the uneducated and no manners. They’ll get in for a term, fuck it up and get tossed out. How it always works.

      Except Harper. He got in with a minority. Fucked around a little, prorogued parliament under threat of a coalition that would have shifted him into the minority, won that election with a majority, then fucked around even more for 5 years.

      Then, he got voted out.

      Pwah-lie-every was Harper’s protégé. Expect every shenanigan there is.

      Wouldn’t it be weird if at least one party didn’t fuck up and get tossed out every time.

        Wouldn’t it be great if there were no political parties at all? No jockeying for power, no backroom deals, no “donor dinners”?

          The problem is setting up a system where leaders can not be influenced by business and can not stack the deck to have an advantage after they leave office. Both things that no politician would ever implement.
