    Someone tell Doug Ford that capitulating to Trump is not going to pay off. He seems to be moving from big talk of resistance to total submission.

      My take: Conservatives fear liberal/progressive societal advances more than they fear fascism. It’s the same way the DNC fears progressives and would rather lose the game than give progressives a platform. Conservatives love big business and fascism is the result when capitalists fear societal regulation and conservativism seems threatened.

      Yeah, I’m curious what changed. Did he get a payout to sell out his province and country? Was he blackmailed? Or was he just bluffing and America called him on it?

        What changed is he just got elected for four more years. The facade of Canada First is irrelevant at this point.

          I saw someone else mention that after I posted and that seems the most likely reason.
