Talking of things we would do if he were the prime minister? I would not qualify that as having the balls. That's a purely hypothetical talk with no commitment.

I am assuming this will be one of the PCs main planks in the next election. In other words, I believe it will become a commitment if it is not already.

Election planks aren't commitments. If they were, we'd have some new voting system to replace "first past the post", in next year's federal election. That was a Liberal promise, but I see no reason to believe that Conservative election promises would be more likely to be kept.

If Sheer says he will scrap the carbon tax if he forms government he will scrap the carbon tax same as Harper did as he promised when he said he would scrap the gun registry and get rid of the wheat board.

Harper also followed through on his promise to make you legally a criminal for the first time in Canadian history, so I am guessing the conservatives will follow through on the arrest and public shaming of men who see escorts as well. Not ideal if you want to keep seeing women a few decades younger then yourself, but to each their own.
There will always be a way around the laws of prostitution. Just because the government said it's illegal never stopped alcohol from being bootlegged, cuban cigars from being smuggled, or slaves from being imported.

But there's no way around a government that's incompetent and unable to resolve even the most basic of issues amongst premiers - the first job a federal government should be doing.

To hell with Scheer and his whole party. They're a nauseating mixture of crooks, religious and racial puritans, Stars-and-Stripes-loving cultural cuckolds, and reality-denying kooks. Harper the sociopath is still lurking around behind the scenes, as their ideological shot-caller.
They should be thrown into an ocean trench, not handed all the power they need to push this country towards ruin yet again.

Oh, but "what about Trudeau and the Liberals ?" Well, a bunch of mediocre fence-sitters may be worthy of complaining about, but not as bad as people who you know will ruthlessly try to ruin Canada (and the world) right into the ground. People shouldn't lose their perspective on what real damage looks like. We just got through having 9 years of it under Harper, and should never have to return to anything like it.

The media always presents the choice as only Red Wankers vs. Blue Wankers, but who says we have to be limited to those two by default? "Leader" is not a word I'd apply to Scheer any more than Trudeau. If my house was on fire, I wouldn't let either one of them lead me out.

OK quick questions...... did Harper ever FUCK tax payers for a fancy vacation to a private island? did harper ever FUCK over tax payers with a costume fantasy FAMILY vacation to India which included the 2 nannies not to mention an Indian Chef at a cost of 1.48 MILLION?....the answer is NO.

Under Trudeau Canadians have nothing but rampant spending and higher taxes and massive additions to the national debt....whilst they our government representatives feed at the fucking trough like pigs because they feel entitled.

I used to vote Lieberal until the Sponsorship Scandal when the Lieberals STOLE 250 MILLION of TAX PAYER money to give it out as kick backs to party stalwarts and cronies.

As for the utter BULLSHIT statement about what ever law it was about prostitution laws I am not worried about it.....truth be told it is a non issue....the cops enforce that law when the situation becomes problematic.....street walkers make an area look bad and they crack down as needed....FFS if both the VPD and the RCMP could not catch a serial killer for 2 decades they sure as fuck are not caring about some guy picking up a piece of ass off the street nor would they be conducting stings via the internet with ads on boards such as this.

Voting for the Politicians Who Want To Screw You

True, there are always ways around prohibitions of that sort. Problem is, the ways around involve huge harm to all concerned. Look at the US. There is nothing stopping the Conservatives from turning us into a clone of the US. Even the Charter can be largely swept aside, as we have seen. Just look at Ontario going back to a 20 year old sex ed curriculum.

If you are considering voting Conservative you need to have a closer look at what they have done and could do.

@the Meat Market!!!lol
i hate this, especially when people say laws criminalizing sex work are a "non issue"....

thank you, it shows me how much you care about the sp's you visit. it shows me how much you care about the work being done to protect sex buyers from targeting and arrest. i don't know why i am always so shocked to hear these kinds of statements about supporting the conservatives. it really shows the hypocrisy.

in my time working on these issues i have become acutely aware that it is always everyone else before sex workers. i get that international trade and getting resources to tide water are important. How can people justify the empowering of religious zealots and feminazi hypocrites? what about quality of life? what about people?

sorry, it's just hard to be reminded of the narrow scope of vision in politics these days. we should demand better and stop voting for exclusion and corporate interests. not saying the liberals or npd are any better but the conservatives embody all of the things i fear in a government.

please, do not believe the hype, a vote for the conservatives is a vote for inequality, poverty, decreasing resources for people in crisis and the 1 percent.

From the Toronto Star

OTTAWA—Here are a few of the scandals and controversies that Stephen Harper has weathered since his Conservative government took office in 2006.

SENATE APPOINTMENTS: The Senate has been the source of Harper’s most damaging scandal, one that goes to the heart of his office. Unsuccessful in efforts to reform the upper chamber, Harper began to stack it with Tory loyalists. Several appointments now haunt him. Mike Duffy, Patrick Brazeau and Pamela Wallin were suspended from the Senate for allegations of improper expense claims; Duffy and Brazeau face criminal charges related to their spending. Harper’s own office has been embroiled after it was revealed that Nigel Wright, his chief of staff at the time, cut a $90,000 cheque to cover Duffy’s questionable expenses. Don Meredith, a Toronto senator, quit the Conservative caucus earlier this year after the Star revealed allegations he had a sexual relationship with a teenager.

Maxime Bernier showed up at Rideau Hall in 2007 to be sworn into cabinet with girlfriend Julie Couillard, above, on his arm. But she had reproted past ties to biker gangs.

ELECTION SCANDALS: The Conservatives have found themselves at the centre of multiple investigations over their election activities. In the 2006 “in-and-out” scandal, the Conservative party pled guilty to exceeding national election advertising limits. In the 2011 election, robocalls misdirected voters away from the polls. A Conservative staffer was convicted in that scandal. Former Conservative MP Dean Del Mastro, once Harper’s parliamentary secretary, was convicted of breaking spending rules in the 2008 vote. And in 2013, then-Labrador MP Peter Penashue was forced to quit Harper’s cabinet over illegal campaign donations.

MAXIME BERNIER: The debonair Quebec MP showed up at Rideau Hall in 2007 to be sworn into cabinet with girlfriend Julie Couillard on his arm. But she had reported past ties to biker gangs. A year later, Bernier was forced to resign as foreign affairs minister after it was revealed that he had left classified NATO documents at Couillard’s home.

VETERANS AFFAIRS: For a government that boasts of its support of Canada’s military, looking after veterans should have been a no-brainer. Instead, the Tories have been in the crosshairs of veterans, upset that ill and injured soldiers have been short-changed and angry over the closing of regional veterans affairs offices. The Conservatives have repeatedly tinkered with programs, boosted funding and finally installed Erin O’Toole, himself a veteran, as minister in charge of the file, all in hopes of quelling the controversy.

AFGHAN DETAINEES: Canadian diplomat Richard Colvin appeared before a parliamentary committee in 2009 and made a bombshell charge — that detainees taken captive by Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan and transferred to local authorities were almost certainly being tortured and abused. The issue escalated into a political crisis when the Conservatives refused to release documents on the issue and prorogued Parliament in December, 2009, shutting down the parliamentary committee that was probing the abuse allegations.

SUPREME COURT TUSSLE: Harper’s frustration with the courts came to a head in 2014 when his appointment of Marc Nadon to the top bench was rejected because Nadon failed to meet eligibility requirements. Harper accused Supreme Court Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin of making “inadvisable and inappropriate” attempts to reach him on the issue, an episode author John Ibbitson describes as the “nadir” of his time in power. “Not only did he lose the fight; he tarnished his reputation and damaged what should be the sacrosanct separation of powers between executive and judiciary,” Ibbitson wrote in his book, Stephen Harper.

G8 FUNDING: In the lead up to the 2010 G8 meeting in Huntsville, senior cabinet minister Tony Clement personally directed a $50-million “legacy” fund, funneling millions in infrastructure to his Muskoka riding. Municipalities far from the actual summit site were given hundreds of thousands of dollars for sidewalk improvements, parks, and most infamously, a gazebo. A subsequent investigation by the auditor general showed funds were doled out with no bureaucratic oversight or paper trails. Clement was later promoted to president of the Treasury Board, the department that oversees government spending.

CONTEMPT RULINGS:

In 2011, Speaker Peter Milliken ruled the Conservative government was in contempt of Parliament on two separate instances: when the international aid minister lied about the defunding of charitable organization KAIROS, and cabinet’s refusal to reveal the costs of corporate tax cuts, criminal justice measures, and the beleaguered F-35 fighter jet program. The rulings were a major blow at the time to the Conservatives, and helped precipitate the 2011 federal election. Voters however didn’t seem to mind — the Conservatives won a majority.
