Taken together they would radically change Canada to reflect what’s being imposed in the US.

EXCERPT: "Based on party commitments, public statements and parliamentary actions, a Poilievre government would have much in common with Trump’s rule over the United States, from recycling failed criminal law policies to weakening gun control to promoting unaffordable tax cuts to defunding public broadcasting.
In fact, a close review of six specific Conservative policy proposals reveals the startling scope of change on offer, and clear parallels with the Trump program in all its chaos and cruelty. On climate change and public health, immigration and foreign aid, freedom and the role of government, Poilievre’s policies amount to a radical reimagining of the country.
If fully implemented, our country would be poorer and sicker, more divided and less informed, more isolated and less free. In short, we would be less Canadian. . . . . "
