    Liberals when conservatives do conservative shit: “this is awful”(rightly so)

    Liberals when liberals do conservative shit: “this is fine”(it’s not)

    Everything points to a right-wing pivot for the liberals and the voters seem just fine with that.

      The last Liberal government bought a $5B oil pipeline. This smells more like honesty and pragmatism than any kind of actual ideological pivot.

        Yes, but they also enforced a carbon tax on provinces that removed their own program.

        There’s also Carney scrapping the capital gains tax increase on cap gains over 250k.

        I don’t deny they’ve always been a right wing party, but they seem to be moving further right - that’s my only point.

        exactly I may not agree with it but I have a hell of a lot of coworkers who wanted that tax repealed, that’s just democracy
