When in my early 20's and starting to pay attention to things politically, I noticed the Conservative Party commercials rarely offered anything resembling policy plans or what they would do to actually help ordinary people.

All I ever saw were attack ads and character assassinations, and simple slogans condemning their perceived political enemies.

I remember Mulroney's arrogance and greed, (he fucking sued Canada itself for slander or something!) Mike Harris's contempt for poor people and natives, cutting financial aid to ones that needed it the most, Harper's fascism and muzzling of climate scientists because their facts and research made his oil industry financial backers look bad, Preston Manning's racism...the list goes on.

Canadian Conservative LIVE to divide and hurt Canadians!
