Liberals when conservatives do conservative shit: "this is awful"(rightly so)

Liberals when liberals do conservative shit: "this is fine"(it's not)

Everything points to a right-wing pivot for the liberals and the voters seem just fine with that.

The last Liberal government bought a $5B oil pipeline. This smells more like honesty and pragmatism than any kind of actual ideological pivot.

Yes, but they also enforced a carbon tax on provinces that removed their own program.

There's also Carney scrapping the capital gains tax increase on cap gains over 250k.

I don't deny they've always been a right wing party, but they seem to be moving further right - that's my only point.

Yeah, it's happening because it's what the voters want.

exactly I may not agree with it but I have a hell of a lot of coworkers who wanted that tax repealed, that's just democracy
