Yeah... no.  Although I feel like he could beat the Turd  :D

please, that's PM Turd... don't fall into that purposeful insult pattern of the CPC who purposely refer to him by name only, sans PM title.

considering its a brood of/up to 5 over many years, that must be a considerable cost that Canadian taxpayers are contributing a 75% tax credit towards - yes?

Scheer tweeted today that “Brexit is still cool”

Scheer was scared to answer any questions about what he thought about Brexit during the campaign.  This is another example of him not explaining a position he previously held.

The guy is a spineless, waffling fool.

Multiple sources said the powerful seven-person board, which includes former prime minister Stephen Harper, decided to act, furious over the arrangement to pay for private religious schooling with donor money. Two sources with direct knowledge of Harper’s thinking described him as shocked and angry. Sources have told Global News others on the board were unaware as well and were also outraged.

On another note...   Who knew Harper was still running things from a party exec position????   The Cons are a bloody mess.

Allow me to help skew those polls: Hurray for Peter Polliwog. He obviously has his finger on the pulse of the economy. Unfortunately that pulse hasn't had a beat for 15 years or so.

Meet the Powerful Elites Who Control the Conservative Party’s Money --- Conservative Fund run by former lobbyists for Irving Oil, big tobacco and {Stephen Harper} the leader of a global network of right-wing political parties

Quote
Despite losing the 2015 federal election, former Prime Minister Stephen Harper hasn’t relinquished control over the party he helped create.

Harper, who as recently as last year suggested he could “easily” become leader again if he wanted his old job back, continues to wield influence over the party through the Conservative Fund by controlling the party purse strings.

According to the Toronto Star, sources close to Harper suggest he was “furious” over Scheer’s private school expenses.

Harper currently serves as chairman of the International Democratic Union, a global network of right-wing political parties, ranging from the centre-right to far-right.

The IDU is based in Munich and housed in the party headquarters of the Bavarian Christian Social Union, a regional social conservative party and a junior partner in Germany’s governing coalition. The CSU has taken aggressive positions on refugees and immigration.

Harper himself stirred controversy in 2017 when, as leader of the IDU, he warmly celebrated the election of the Hungarian far-right leader Viktor Orban.

What is really interesting is that the normal expenses are around $200k, and this year they spent $900k or over 4 times the usual amount. I'm not sure what "pre-writ" expenses are, a funny way of saying pay for attack ads ahead of the election?

The internal takedown of weakAndy --- partisan warfare, ruthless tactics, friendly fire - what really happened!

Quote
There had been Conservative frustration about the election outcome on Oct. 21, and then there was the raw shock.

The party’s data was faulty, and its internal projections on election day pointed to a 20-seat advantage. No one was prepared for defeat; there was a transition team in place in case of victory, but no meeting scheduled to deal with a loss. Everyone went underground for a few days to lick their wounds, and by the time they surfaced, the anti-Scheer forces had mobilized and the narrative was set.

and if Scheer sticks to his statement, he'll be around as 'interim leader' for a tad longer: Conservative Party convention postponed to November 2020

uhhh... CPC wanting to milk the leadership speculation... for all its worth!

oh my! What does it say about the state of the CPC... of C/conservatism in Canada... that Poilievre is actually being touted as a legitimate front-runner! When the label Red-Tory is cast negatively; used disparagingly! Is there any room, at all, for progressive positioning in today's ever increasing anti-enviro, neo-nationalist, nativist, right-wing populist CPC?
