Why the fuck is this candidate for the leadership of the Liberal party using Trump’s Putin supplied right wing grievance political talking points?

    “I am an old-school Liberal,” said Freeland. “And Liberals in Canada win when we are focused on people and on what they need in their lives.”

    Call me crazy, but this is what I am looking for in literally every politician.

      If you are worried about “virtue signalling” and “identity politics”, you are NOT looking out for the average Canadian, you are just navel gazing and playing politics.

      Someone talking about UBI, housing cost and availability, living wages, addressing climate change and food insecurity - THAT is looking out for the average Canadian.

      “I’m old-school” just means “I’m afraid of rocking the boat and have a hard time adjusting and adapting my views as time wears on. It’s ok, I’m financially isolated from needing to worry about those issues.”

      The Liberals might not actively grow evil, but the only time they do anything address it, either, is when thr NDP forces them to.
