The messaging is always limited and downplayed .... no one wants to talk about things that far back and no one ever wants to nail the conservatives on that point.
I'm in Ontario and when I talk to conservatives about the NDP .... they will happily regurgitate how the NDP ruined the province ... over 30 years ago! over and over again just keep repeating crap like 'Rae Days' ... but then everyone tunes themselves out when you ask them about Harper and Harpers adopted poster boy Poilievre
I was a bit too young to be very involved in politics then so I don't have a strong opinion on the matter, but it's funny, because behind closed doors, I've had several people tell me that Rae's policies were unpopular precisely because they were the ones we needed.
One of my good friend's dad worked for the Province and said the exact same thing.
He was saying it was a very difficult position to be in and Rae days actually solved the problem the Province was trying to solve.
Yeah, I've got comments mirroring that, Harper should be to the Tories what Bob Rae is to the ONDP. Probably sticks out to me because I was just old enough to start voting during those years, that wasn't that long ago though, like I know memories are short in politics but I'd not be running with a Harper cabinet minister if I were them.
