Oh, bullshit.
Go on, Globe and Mail, blow some more sunshine up our arses, yeah?
From the editorial Jules posted:
'Fiscally prudent, economically liberal and socially progressive – the party could be all of those things, and it once was. But it won’t be, as long as Mr. Harper is at its head.'Correction: this party was never those things, and it still wouldn't be those thing if Harper wasn't around. The modern Conservative party is the result of — effectively — a hostile takeover by the Reform party of the Progressive Conservative Party, with the net result being eliminating any trace of progressivism in any sort of Canadian conservative movement. People who sign up to that party as a supporter or candidate understand this, and that's why they sign up.

- I disagree with you. Harper's the driving fore of that all-right-wing movement, if he leaves things will balance out again. You can't deny the history ofzarkonite

- Most of those papers are owned by the same people, though.nb
- La presse always endorses the Liberals. The owners are one of their biggest financial backers... and the JdM is a seperatist newspaper.zarkonite

Canadian election: Justin Trudeau's Liberals tipped to win nailbiting poll
Canadians head into a nail-bitingly close election on Monday in which the incumbent Conservative, Stephen Harper, is struggling to hold on to power in the face of a challenge by Justin Trudeau’s Liberal party.
Why Americans should care about the Canadian election

The election appears set to be the closest in the country’s history. Just in the last three weeks the centre-left Liberals, led by the son of former prime minister Pierre Trudeau, have surged into the lead.Barring a surprise, Trudeau is on course to oust Harper as he seeks a rare fourth term as prime minister.
Polls put the Liberals about seven points ahead but current projections suggest the party will not be able to win the 170 seats required for a parliamentary majority on its own. There have been hints throughout the campaign that the left-wing New Democratic Party would be willing to enter into a coalition with the Liberals, but no outright promises.
