When Conservatives form the government, they are faced with an entrenched bureaucracy of mostly lefty, Liberal supporting, public servants, often hostile, some of whom do all they can to leak negative things to the presstitutes. (Similar to what has, and is happening to Donald Trump in DC, that is, District of Corruption.)
Because of this, and a Canadian press corps that ALMOST makes CBS appear 'fair and balanced', Conservatives do not often get elected and rarely re-elected. It is exceedingly difficult to drain the swamp, even moreso than the battle that PDJT has. Draining the swamp that is d'Ottawa-Gatineau will only come through an act of God.
So, it’s like a frozen swamp, eh?
Canada... just north of here, right?
Just kidding. But it’s kinda funny. Canada is so quiet that I know zero about the politics up there. I mean, that entire post was Greek to me. I probably know more about the politics of Egypt than Canada.
As I tell my Canadian friends - Turdo is your Obama.
Put a stake through his political heart or you’ll lose your country forever.
As it is down here in the USA, Civil Service sounded like a good idea in theory, but has only served to produce armies of ultraleftist, unaccountable bureaucrats that feather their nests and undermine non-leftist governments. A perpetual Derp State. We need to go back to straight-up patronage. Everyone goes out at the end of an administration, all the way down to janitor. Let them go get a job in the private sector where they have to produce real results. Serving in government should be a sacrifice, not the place you go to get rich.
The article doesn’t really explain how these women were “crushed and spat-out.” Were they subject to constant investigations? Constant media criticism? Lawsuits? Drummed-up criminal charges? Did they fail to get re-elected because of one or more of these things? Or were they just not able to get anything done?
The good news... This may be the end for the Liberal party and the emergence of the NDP as the true left, the Conservatives as the true right and the Liberals eliminated from power completely.
The Liberals lost opposition status after Mulcair’s failed ‘coup’ that thankfully was thwarted by Madame Jean, who turns out was a true patriot and very good representative for the Queen and her wishes.
Trudeau took the Liberals from third party status to governing based on one promise and one promise only... Legalized Marijuana and he managed to screw up that one promise by making provincial authorities responsible for enforcing regulations and sales... Causing a complete debacle with most Canadian’s ignoring legal pot in favour of their old illegal dealer instead.... Legalizing pot and selling it for double the price of illegal pot hasn’t worked very well.
Add to that Trudeau’s ineptness and lack of experience and the ensuing debacles including failures in the areas of diplomacy, free trade, pipeline construction, immigration, and his love of enemy combatants and handing out millions to the likes of Omar Khadr, etc... And then top that off with the SNC Lavalin scandal, his offensive behaviour towards woman and those in the indigenous community (two base voter groups who vote Liberal, but will vote NDP instead) and Just not Ready Justine (the phony feminist) Trudeau will be toast and the Liberal party will be toast along with him.
For a party to go from third, to first, to third again does not bode well for the Liberal party.
