Trudeau was scum, but I’m not a huge fan of BM either.

Trudeau — Canada’s Clinton, but presumably with a functional size and shaped, disease free penis.

Cowardly, Draft Dodging, Womanizer, Liar, Corrupt and now irrelevant.

Mulroney was to Trudeau, what The Keg is to McDonalds.

Dinner won’t be perfect at either place, but I’d still rather eat at The Keg.

Trudeau was a Nazi. When that far-left ideology was discredited, he joined the other far-left Satanists, the Communists. A truly evil man who ruined Canada.

Way worse.

NOVEMBER 1, 1969
Barbra Streisand begins dating Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau.

He was PM for 16 years.

He very nearly ruined our country.

Cowardly, Draft Dodging, Womanizer, Liar, Corrupt and now irrelevant.

Except for his legacy, you're right.

"He’s dead

Thankfully - but that doesn't alter or negate my comments.

"Barbra Streisand begins dating Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau."

Hillary is convinced that Streisand "dated" Clinton also....

This is a very articulate and well-deserved slap-down of Trudeau. (Splenetic” — indeed.)

However, I didin’t like the Meech Lake Accord — because it was disingenuous (what’s a “distinct society” anyhow). It would have left too much for the courts to decide — and the “distinct society” gave the SCOC unlimited scope to determine the status of Quebec.

The main problem with the Trudeau’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms is the powers that it gave to the SCOC — without the checks and balances that exist in the U.S. Constitution (notwithstanding the “notwithstanding” clause).

Mulroney’s Charlottetown Accord was an order-of-magnitude worse — especially the so-called “social charter” that gave a blank cheque to every special interest group in the country.

It would have been far better if Mulroney had just proposed strengthening the federal nature of Confederation — i.e. giving back the powers that all provinces were supposed to have in the first place. A true federal state allows each province to be a “distinct society”.

Back in the USENET days of the Internet, the best .sig file I ever saw was: “Percent of Canadians who approve of Brian Mulroney - 15. Percent of Canadians who believe Elvis is still alive - 18.”

I am much more impressed with Stephen Harpers vision for our country than I ever was with Mulroney’s, but I’ll take Mulroney’s Canada any day over Trudeau’s.

All conservatives need to stop pandering to the masses and lead. That’s what seperates us from the liberals in the first place.

No ... My intent wasn’t for you to speak “nicely” about the dead. The point that he was irrelevent though struck me as funny.
