Remember when the conservative party had the veneer of morality and decency, with unwavering support for the rule of law? Neither do they.
I’m an American but I assume it’s probably the fault of our conservatives
Funny you say that. One of our province’s far right premiers, blamed “progressives” for the same kind of rhetoric in Canada that led to the Trump shooting in the US.

Sounds like she’s getting her taking points from South of the border
She is. There’s a coordinated effort among party strategists across borders.
In case you wonder why the biggest fear of conservatives is trans-national labour unions, it’s because they work trans-nationally, know how well it works, and are terrified of the poors doing the same thing.
One thing that’s crazy is during 2008 Canada was one of the only countries where were no housing busts or bank failures. It was explained at the time that they didn’t deregulate like the US did in the 90s, and didn’t go crazy with Eurodollar and derivative speculation like the European banks.
The takeaway was that in Canada banking is still a boring business managed by professional adults, overseen by stern but fair regulators who would ensure that things don’t get out of hand.
So what the hell happened? Seemed like the Canadian government and finance people took the lesson that they missed out on a hell of a party and they’re going to have their own housing bubble with blackjack and whatnot.
Unfortunately, The Honorable Leader of HM Official Opposition Mr Polievre is quite likely to sleepwalk into a job as Canada’s next Prime Minister. The current PM is so reviled by Canadians (according to polls - a type of lie know as Statistics), it seems possible that no one in the Liberal Party will be successful in the next election. I’m ashamed to say it’s a good time to be an ex-pat.
hey its that guy who didn’t read the article, got triggered by the headline, and had to post something snarky to feel better, posting more stuff to manage his own emotions. buddy, there are less embarrassing ways to regulate your emotions.
This article’s question reminded me of and old and dark joke: when “power user” comes to the grizzled sysadmin with a printout of his very first program and asks “sir, can you see where the error is” to which grizzled sysadmin replied “in DNA” without ever looking away from his screen. Same here… problem is in DNA of conservatism. They are attached to material stuff thus with each iteration removing themselves further from humanity. It’s i escapable for them to end up here.
his very first program
Who’s very first program? The sysadmin or powerruser? Neither of them are likely to make programs, and idk why anyone would bring a printout of a program to a sysadmin to inspect.
I can’t tell if this is self-deprecation of sysadmin or a PEBCAK joke.
Who’s very first program
Indeed, who IS very first? Is any of us really first?
All conservatives are trash. That’s what.
