As one person wrote, If harper and his agenda had come to the P.C. convention where Mulroney was elected leader, Harper would have been tossed out on his ear. Harper started by defunding women's groups. it was all down hill from there. Each step he took was measured and none were less than 6 months apart, so people made the adjustment. They kept adjusting and then there were so many groups he had attacked, there was no one left untouched, except for his base and those who believe the corporations know better. They are willing to accept serfdom.e.a.f.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611409863712113861.post-16883933738812537262015-10-17T13:12:46.668-04:002015-10-17T13:12:46.668-04:00What a really astute observation Kirby.

In other words if your going to bring in Neoliberalism do it with a smile and sell it as a pillar of freedom. The electorate knows nothing much about Neoliberalism, but they do know about hubris, malice and tyranny. These are not good traits for a PM wanting to transition the countries government from democracy to neoliberalism ,to have. So our saving grace in a way is that Harper is a miserable S.O.B.So much of a miserable S.O.B, that even his Neoliberal masters don't want him. I wonder if he has caught on?

The bloom is off that rose though. People are still hurting and the yahoos among them are turning to something like Trump to fill the void.<br /><br />Maybe harper was the corporate elite dipping their [our] toes in the waters of fascism. <br /><br />"Too much?" <br /><br />So they offer us Trudeau. Just like they gave the US-Americans Obama.<br /><br />And, yes, Mulcair's centrism is par for the course.<br /><br />Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren and Alan Grayson in the US represent a rising wave.<br /><br />Jeremy Corbyn's rebellion against Blair-ites in the UK Labour Party is something else to behold.<br /><br />Things are polarizing. That's for sure. thwaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15399550285738440669noreply@blogger.com
