As someone who was in elementary school under Harper and (obviously) not into politics...can I ask for an abridged version of your view on Harper's terms and what your biggest complaints were with his leadership?

I've done some looking online for a while, but it's hard to find good retrospectives on his whole stint as prime minister and not old single-issue news articles.

All that comes to mind when I think Harper is:

• Islamophobia
• some budget problem that caused some kind of short-lived governmental crisis
• inferior hair compared to Trudeau

I'm in favour of this new taxation structure, but there is a narrow group of people with modest means like my parents who will be disadvantaged by this new tax structure.

They live in the middle of buttfuck-nowhere with a large plot of cheap rural land. Principal residence only covers up to a half hectare of land, given you don't meet certain niche exceptions. The actual house they live in is of little value; 100+ years old and probably to be demolished upon sale. The majority of the property value is in the surrounding land. Not a fortune or anything, but definitely more than $250k, which they'll now need to pay at 2/3 capital gains (they bought it for next to nothing decades ago). Not gonna throw them into financial ruin or anything, but it will somewhat affect what they can afford to move into when they go to sell their place.

Again, I'm in favour of this tax structure, but just wanted to include this anecdote given the idea that this only affects billionaires.

What do you mean by nationalizing food? Between agriculture, making of food products, grocery stores, restaurants, etc...what would be nationalized?

All other items on this list I can understand, but I'm confused as to what nationalizing "food" would entail.

Gay frog robots.

In a few months though I can handle a change or gap in insurance though so I've got a light at the end of the tunnel at least

This is just so fucked. In no way do I mean on your end, but just that the system begets inhumane situations like this.

Never thought a single non-canadian would have even heard of Corner Gas lol
