I met Brian when he was out walking his dog in Westmount a very rich part of Montreal and he looked like the loneliest Canadian on the planet. This was right after the PC got shellacked by the Liberals and were reduced to only two MP’s in Parliament as a result of draconian spending caps to reign in the deficit that was bankrupting the country coupled with the introduction of the dreaded GST sales tax. I said to him at the time that you did the right thing for Canada even if it cost you dearly politically but history will be kind to you. He thanked me for the kind words and went about his business. I always like Mulroney but he let’s face it, NAFTA was an f’en good deal for Canada at the time. But the soft lumber file was one he could not get done under NAFTA or any other succeeding administration in Canada. In the end Mulroney’s drastic deficit reduction paved the way for a balancing of the books under Harper.

Bush Sr., the man who used our troops to defend our pals the Saudis, who then gave us the 911 hijackers and went on to spend millions establishing mosques all over the world and planting Islamic studies in major universities.

A pox on all the Bushes. They are all Neocon warmongers and RINOs.

Bush Sr. Was not civilized, he raised taxes, which is an intolerable act.

Canada needs to create a Republic,

discard their failed Democracy,

and Canada needs to quit blaming Trump for their cowardice to change.

The USA cannot prop up Canada any longer. Man up.

Yes the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA) has worked out well for the “leadership”.

The citizens, not so much.

Two good:

Giving us Justice Clarence Thomas.

Kicking Saddam Insane out of Kuwait (but failing to go on to Baghdad to finish the job).

If he left Saddam alone, he would have bullied Saudi Arabia and maybe even have invaded it. We would have been better off. Going after Saddam ruined the lives of Christians and other minorities in Iraq. Invading it was a big F'n waste. We have pissed away lives and money and opened the floodgates of invaders here.

Yeah, I'd forgotten about that little turd of Kelo infamy.

I understand the homes he allowed the local government in Connecticut to take are still vacant lots and the big employer the land was supposed to serve has long since fled the high tax anti-business environment.
