I don't know about that. Trump clearly wants to be a dictator. He's said it repeatedly. All his moves have been to secure himself as some sort of despot. He wants to be able to disregard the elections, he wants to be able to fire anyone he chooses and he attacks anyone, viciously, who disagrees. He's a racist POS, misogynist, and a criminal.

Missing him? They shipped him to DC to be rid of him.

Thing is, most provinces already have pharmacare to some degree. How does the Federal program differ? That's what the Libs and NDP need to communicate.

9 Provinces have declined Phatmacare. Can't force them, which is why it won't go forward.

Jason Vega has chills.

Given that every minority gov't needs another party to help pass their legislation, I don't know what all the fuss is about? It's the clear the Cons have no interest in governing or being a part of anything, so the NDP are a natural pick. The CPCs just keep spinning themselves into a smaller and smaller, less relevant party.

I would say that she's an early frontrunner but it will be a battle. Also, her being capable does not mean that she will have the necessary people around her.

I think you're incorrect. The power has been concentrated in the PMO. Copied Harper. That is not to say that there are not capable politicians in caucus that can't take over and be effective but the team around them will be depleted. As important as the leader is, the team around them gets the job done. That won't be easy. Also, Trudeau does run the PMO the same as Harper did. Everything runs through that office, which is why JWR and JP were run out.

Wab has become much more palatable to swing voters ever since they lived (barely) through PC rule. Both Brian and Heather are toxic. The PCs could get it together if they bothered to get appropriate staff and leaders in place. They're organization has been falling apart. This is an issue we've seen at the provincial level before. Selinger couldn't keep the right staff in place after the split. When Harper left, there was a vacuum and no one was capable of stepping up. I expect a similar fallout when Trudeau leaves.

So, you think Chevy should have sold while the team was making the playoffs? May as well just moved the team. Fans and players would have quit.

It's up to GMs to sort this out, I believe. Are we going to implement salary caps by position?

You should read the Canada Health Act. Feds can withhold funding. https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/c-6/page-1.html#docCont

This seat was never in play for the NDP and they haven't put money into it. It's a bad day for the NDP if the Liberals win or if the PCs gain votes. Otherwise, I assure you, they don't really care.

There is a way to do it but it wouldn't be politically savvy to do so. Hold up transfer payments and see who blinks first? Only the public would feel the effects, not the politicians. They need to work it through the health transfer (CHT) agreement.

NDP only lose if the Libs win. Nothing changes, otherwise.

No, really? That's great. Can't wait.

I don't see how splitting the centre and centre-left vote helps hold the PCs accountable. When's the last time the Liberals were relevant outside of Winnipeg? They have a few winnable seats in the city but not many.

There is no change in polling. The NDP can't afford an election. The CPC can't afford an election and don't even have a leader. The Liberals definitely don't want one. And, well, there's the Bloc who always want an election.

Exactly. And, Liberals get official party status, which means mo' money, mo' problems for the NDP. The NDP don't need to win the PC vote to win, they need to convince Liberal voters that it's in their best interest to vote for them.

I think the Buff departure, the way and the timing, shook this team. It hasn't recovered and it has never looked in on itself to determine why it happened. A house cleaning is in order.

Worse case scenario for the NDP is the Libs winning.

Buff helped mask the problems but we all knew that the d was a mess. It remains a mess and, yet, Huddy is still employed. Another failure by management.
