I mean... Mr. PP has extreme views too, so why wouldn't he?

Leader of Reform Party associates with Reform Party candidates

I just don’t understand how so many conservatives switched to that party

$$$ Just like the USA. Suck as much money as possible from the people. Privatize, privatize, privatize. PP and Danielle Smith are having wet dreams about privatizing our health care.

The notion that Canada’s Conservatives are left of the Democrats came because they were separate from the Reform Party

I understand Harper merged them but the traditional Canadian Conservative should be Liberal supporters now.
