Scheer's concern about those waiting in refugee camps for Canada's help will surely translate into increased help for those refugees from the CPC, right? *crickets chirp*

If you ever needed proof that Canadian political culture is primarily a cargo cult of American political culture, look no further than these votes. Obsession with "free speech", the salience of abortion as a wedge issue, and targeting birthright citizenship are all central aspects of the far-right in America right now, so of course Canada's conservatives believe they're issues here as well.

I heard a new reasoning for being against the minimum wage increase when I was out for drinks with a friend of mine (it was from my friend's idiot co-worker, not someone I actively chose to associated with). "I had a nanny, and if I had to pay her $15/hour then I wouldn't have been able to Job Create and she wouldn't have had a job." How do you say that with so little self-awareness, I wondered then, as indeed I wonder now.

This is pretty common with our wonderful and infallible small business owners. The number of total jobs is more important than whether the people working those jobs can support themselves with what they're being paid. "If the minimum wage was five dollars, I could create THREE JOBS for the price of one 15 dollar an hour worker!"

What's more terrifying, A Conservative party growing more regressive, or a Conservative party with a shred of self awareness?

They correctly identified that there are a large amount of racist feminists who would never vote for a party that threatened their right to get an abortion, but don't give a poo poo if they threaten the ability of poor people far away to get an abortion.

We don't have a universal government so laws and funding aren't universal. Just because the Con's can't make it so here doesn't mean they can't support their allies elsewhere.
