He didn’t used to be tho. When he first ran to be an MP he was articulate, open-minded, and took time to talk to the nation. The first indication he had issues was when he backed down from his promise of electoral reform … the beginning of the end I guess.

He didn’t really talk to the nation. He played a role: sunny, shiny, happy, rainbow-painted park benches pride parades, but underneath it’s the same champagne-sipping Laurentian neoliberal wankery.*

I’d say the mask was off with either electoral reform or, and this is my theory, the lightning-fucking-quick move to sell TMX.

(as opposed to the tall-hat, cowboy-cosplaying Calgarian elite that’s the CPC)

He’s still articulate now, and I would argue any open-mindedness he shows has always been a performance.

What about the whole we showed believe the Woman. Then he gets accused by a woman of a sexual crime and he says she experienced it differently.

An articulate way of saying “she’s lying, don’t believe her.” It’s further proof of my point that he’s a narcissist and doesn’t mean most of what he says.
