They looked at USA's ongoing dumpster fire to the south and said "that looks nice and warm."
Conservatives are a plague
Conservatives have adopted the franchise model and applied it to politics. They conform themselves to head office (in this case Republicans in the US) and get to piggy back off the propaganda that gets put out by them. The US being the media powerhouse that it is, it's pretty effective. Alberta is the most obvious example of this.
The first PM to do this was Mulroney with Reagan (and his -nomics bs that's led us to this hellscape).
If we had been smarter back then we never would have elected that idjit in the first place. All he did was follow Reagan around like a lap dog.
Having lived through the Trump years in the USA I do not grok how anyone can think it a proper way to run a government. It was not even the proper way to run a trash fire.
You think you have it bad? I'm from Texas and can't afford to leave!
