But I would point-out that Harper is ...Well done. <br /><br />But I would point-out that Harper is not the cause of all the present discontents; he is a product of all the present discontents. <br /><br />He is the exemplar of all of our present discontents. <br /><br />The battle was lost during the Diefenbaker years - as Canadians came to reject the very ideals the nation was founded upon. <br /><br />As we moved into the 1960's, the traditional Tory view of Canada became isolated, and was ultimately rejected by the mass of Canadians - despite a sub-conscious affinity for a nationalistic feeling. <br /><br />The so-called Progressive Conservative party continued on through the 1970's as weird admixture of aging Tories fighting for the Olde Canada - and disaffected businessmen with their erections pointed firmly towards the United States border. As the Tories retired and/or died off, the Business Class took over the Party. <br /><br />Their view was that the path to Power came in mimicking the policies of the Liberal Party of Canada. <br /><br />The quandary of contemporary Canada is that we have two parties with the same purpose - integration into the world of market rationality. <br /><br />I used to be a PC because I believed in Canada. I still do. But sadly, Tory Nationalism does resonate much with anyone these days. <br /><br />Everyone is too busy anticipating the NFL draft to care.Shaftesburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15861594677240319702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3260545195755894149.post-59892907607922397172013-05-08T08:30:33.692-04:002013-05-08T08:30:33.692-04:00A thing of joy is a beauty forever.A thing of joy is a beauty forever.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17706184677895203579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3260545195755894149.post-26404642772188880352013-05-08T08:02:48.641-04:002013-05-08T08:02:48.641-04:00Good grief, keep it up!
