When Harper was PM, he worked within the so-called moderate conservatives neoliberal agenda. PP represents big “C” conservatives: socially conservative, Christian nationalist & radically extremist.
Stockwell Day proved that Canadians were not going to accept radical reform.
He was laughed out of the leadership of the Canadian Reform Alliance Party for his firm belief in human beings sharing space with dinosaurs. People often remember him for showing up to a press conference on a jet ski. But he is a devout big “C” Christian Nationalist conservative.
This is why liberals and lefties should stop pointing fingers. The left is not very good at it. But the right excels at double standards and hypocrisy.
Yesterday, PMJT revealed that CPC is led by a man courting white supremacists.
But today, people are repeating the word “whacko” in relation to the PM and BC drug policy and debating whose leader was more ethical.

Who gives a crap about decorum & process in QP?
Apparently it’s more important to focus on the process and decorum than the fact the attack on the Speaker was a coordinated event by CPC & perfectly demonstrates that CPC IS courting white supremacists and attacking the first Canadian black Speaker for doing his job.

Our social and political systems legitimize devaluation of the poor, PWD, seniors and children because they do not produce profits, rather they consume resources.
Society would need to reconsider the premise of its systemic foundations to alter this reality.
The premise that most human beings are just capital that can either produce or consume goods and services became reality at the dawn of the Industrial Revolution. A product of feudalist social strata.
Why people fail to recognize these beliefs is unknown, they surround us.
It’s the same strategy that was used for Old Age Security and Guaranteed Income Supplements for citizens over age 65.
Benefits for seniors is actually the province’s jurisdiction as listed in the BNA 1867.
After industrialization in Canada and people began moving to cities and towns, seniors were dying in abject poverty. So the feds stepped in. But not without some constitutional manoeuvring first.
People forget, retirement is a 20th century concept.
