How the fuck is he a liberal? Who nominated him? How have dozens of former liberals not crossed the floor to the NDP? He is worse than Harper. Beyond PP’s dreams! Fucking alarming.

    Liberals have rarely been pro-labour. While the Trudeau gov't did some positive welfare changes, it tipped the scales on many strikes for corpos. Chretien did austerity and bargaining freezes, etc. Pierre Trudeau also harmed labour in various ways.

    The Cons are the old Reform and the Libs are the old Cons.

    We knew that going into the election. I don’t know why Lib MPs aren’t crossing to the NDP but if any of their constituents voted for them thinking they weren’t the Cons then they should be contacting them to floor cross.
