Except the news media thinks they are, so we will probably continue to have them, if not just for the entertainment value. They fill in some of the 'air time'.

I think that's why conaervatives like PP but not JT.

Conservatives want to be the bottom so they don't like leaders they can fuck but rather prefer leaders who can fuck them.

Yeah he said it like Gaygd

Liberal cabinet

Stopped reading there. You know why.

For everyone else who doesn't. They're lying through their teeth. It was a random MP. Not the Liberal cabinet.

At this point, this clip is the entirety of the debate that I've seen, but I will say two things about this general issue.

If your argument is that his opponents are doing shitty things so it's okay if he does shitty things, take a look through history or south of our border to see how that ends up. And I've never seen Pierre give a real alternative to any issue he's identified, whether those issues are real or not. The few stances he's taken are usually tired conservative agendas that have failed every time they've been tried, yet he drags their mummified remains onto the stage, dusts them off, and pretends that it's a novel idea that will solve the issue it's targeted at with a single step. Mandatory minimum sentencing? This is a primarily punitive measure that ignores the main issues with our prison system, that it is overloaded by people who have little hope for a better future and few options besides crime for anything but the most meager of existences. But sure, longer sentences will fix that. No? Well, at least it's something that can happen in one term. And that's representative of every 'idea' he puts forward. An alternative whose only merit is the thinnest veneer of emotional relief to charged topics and not enough depth or nuance to actually address the problem, let alone solve it.

Weird, Voyager is just displaying it as an image. Opening it in Firefox linked me to the Imgur video.

My bad!
