There was a time he could strike a chord with a moderate chunk of Canadians, but he's spent so much time up his own ass he mistakes his farts for the direction the Public wind is blowing. Truly lost the plot. Part of me hopes he sticks around. Part of me thinks Canada needs a strong opposition.

Our house had carpet in the master bedroom en suite when we bought it. 😬😬 Just the way the sequence of renos went, it ended up being the last piece of carpet to be torn out of the house. Not a moment to soon.
