I think if you want to be a socialist you need to acknowledge that sometimes the government will be grossly incompetent and/or corrupt. Frankly, this experience is what has pulled me to the right. I simply don’t have trust in unaccountable institutions anymore.

You watched liberals do liberalism, blamed it on socialists and moved to the right? What on earth are you thinking?

They campaigned on the left and have been a minority government working in a coalition with the socialist NDP for the past several years.
