The Conservative plan to become Canada’s Natural Governing Party

Canada’s Conservatives, after nearly eight years of power, have become the country’s Establishment Party.

Traditionally viewed as a collection of misfits who couldn’t keep power once they achieved it — and who stabbed each other in the back during opposition — the Tories are now a political powerhouse.

But can they win a fourth-straight election, in 2015? The last time a Conservative prime minister did that was in 1891, under Sir John A. Macdonald. Expect Wednesday’s throne speech to be focused on this goal.

HUGE cult of personality wave coming, BIGGER than the obama cult. It` Trudeau mania. Hysteria and emotionalism will be VERY hard to beat.

That said, one good step is to force cable companies to go ‘ ala carte’ , picking which channels you want to pay for.

Certainly not the ones I met in Alberta.....Everyone there is very nice. They hate Ottawa there as much as we hate Washington.

My mother wanted me to move to Canada to avoid the draft. Maybe I should have. This country is going to hell in a hurry. Beside the fishing is better there.
