Leitch wasn't rejected because of her values message but in spite of it. She had zero charisma, was not exactly likable or photogenic, not a good speaker, and makes terrible videos. The values message was the only thing that kept her from being dropped on the first ballot.

I wouldn't go that far.  Leitch is actually a pretty good speaker.  The left and CBC, media types despised her and spoke against her at every chance.  She probably doesn't have much experience at making videos or her videographer might have zero experience.  That could be improved.  I don't see any of the other candidates having that much charisma.  Charisma might help but politicians can also be elected without much charisma.  Stephen Harper didn't really have much charisma but received a lot of support.  He made up for lack of charisma with intelligence and knew what he was talking about.  Often charisma is more bragadosia.  Some of the PMs we had came across that way.  Funny a lot of people voted for them anyway.  Bragadosia seems to sell.

Hopefully Leitch is a good physician because she is about as interesting to listen to as a politician as is Trump, especially when he tries to say something off script. I think her little "values test" hurt her eventually as people realized how useless it would be. I was a little worried over what Bernier had in his policy's especially when it came to healthcare. Scheer seems not a bad choice especially since he says he won't open backtrack on social issues such as abortion. I somehow doubt he'll catch up to Trudeau by next election, but we shall see.

Cause it would be so terrible to have a mixed health care system like France, UK, Australia, Japan, Germany, Sweden, etc. *sarcasm*

As long as we don't end up with one like the US.

Trudeau had no values or charisma but being the darling of the liberal far left wing media they did everything they could to make him look just fine and dandy, and a great PM for Canada. They could have easily done the same thing for Lietch also. But she was a conservative so in the medias mind it's off with her head. The media can make or break anyone if they so choose. And they get away with it because most of the Canadian people out there are clueless about politics and rely on the media for their information and the truth which of course they never will get from the fake and phony Canadian liberal media. I guess that her getting dumped on by the media was because of her stance on immigration, a taboo and sacred cow subject that must never be mentioned or discussed here in Canada, and the zionist elite will make dam sure of that. Aw well.

His charisma? Yoiu thinh he's  a dreamboat do you? Ahahahah. You sure its not you projecting your "feelings" for Justin when you call him charismatic. He makes me want to vomit. I don 't know maybe it is his cologne or is it his charisma.... his photo ops may be palpitating to you but think the majority of Canadians voted out Harper because of his longevity and the Duffy incident. They wanted new. Charisma? Most politicians in Canada are about as sexy as yogurt. Look around. With the exception of Trudeaumania, Canada poiliticians are uncharismatic. We vote in consistently dweebish politicians. Pretty boy photo ops will not cover up tout of control taxes and deficits or giggling as the Immigration system explodes. Giggling and smiling only gets you so far.

But hey I vote for Ms. Wynne because she's a la stunner. That smile of hers causes me to get flush with excitement.  I just flip over he Jane Hathaway look.  

Charisma.

Uh yah.

One man's charisma is another's drag queen. I guess it depends on what bar you are in and how many drinks you've had before you make the analysis.

I wonder what Canada will be like if trudeau gets to stay as PM for 9 years? I think that trudeau will do way more harm to Canada and Canadians and the economy than Harper could ever have done. I hear that trudeau is not all that popular these days? I wonder why? Trudeau will put Canada's economy even deeper in the dump. Liberals have and has been putting Canada in the dump for eons. 

Conservatives but the nation in the dump, Paul Martin handed Harper the best economy in the world bar none.  Martin was grossly corrupt so he was punished, and he was very ugly too.  The Harper government was a big failure, 1 government and voters kicked him to the curb.

(1)What did Harper do that would have caused his defeat then? Where did he go wrong? There are going to be a lot of welfare people getting screwed of their welfare checks. Maybe a lot need to lose their welfare checks because many of them when they receive their checks will immediately go out and buy booze. Just like the many welfare recipients here in Canada who do the same thing also. So, what' your point? I just think that you are no fan of Harper or Trump an that is why you prefer to attack them than ever try and find something good about what they may have done that was good for the country. You must be a Trudeau/Hillary supporter, eh? 

 

"Harper has more than doubled that score — posting annual average job-growth of 1.1 per cent.

Alas, in the list of 10 prime ministers since and including Bennett, that is the second worst rate.

Bennett's economy shrank by an average of a little more than 2 per cent compared to 1.5 per cent annualized growth in Harper's time.

Much, much better, but — again — every prime minister between Bennett and Harper had a higher score on this."

Harper "has the worst record on jobs creation since World War II," 

http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-election-2015-stephen-harper-jobs-analysis-1.3254371

 

Worse ECONOMY EVER.  Took the largest surplus in Canadian history and ran them into the largest deficits to enrich his private sector donors and cronies.  While the Paul Martin liberals were grossly corrupt, no one, not even myself would image that Steven Harper would find a way to out do his corrupt ion and destroy the strongest economy on earth at the time.  Harper grew the welfare rolls because it is rural hopeless, jobless welfare queens up north who vote conservatives. The people with jobs in the cities that run the country like Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, you know, where all the economic activity occurs, knows which government makes it good for business and there is a reason they consistently vote against conservatives.

Well since my view is economic based, and Harper has destroyed the economy, why would I like him?  What has Trump done?  He hasn't been in office very long, lets wait 2 years and see where the country is in his 3rd year or 2nd year, he hasnt even passed a budget yet.

 

Sorry I did not vote for Trudeau.  And I am glad Hilary lost.  Hilary was a terrible candidate, they dnc rigged the election so she could win because she was otherwise unelectable.  dems should have foreseen if she couldn't win a primary and was imploding to Sanders when she had 20 point leads she'd be unelectable.  But for the russian rigging the election for Trump, she might have won.

(2)The west had no reason to be poor. They had everything needed to be able to stand on their own two feet. It was the east that kept the west in poverty for decades by not trying to help them with their many resources that they had. Bombardier is a bankrupt company that is always receiving taxpayer's aid to help keep it afloat. Bombardier would not exist today if it were not stealing westerners tax dollars to keep that white elephant alive. Thanks to the west many francos have a job. I bet that if Bombardier were a western company they would be in the black, not the red. 

The NDP were most likely elected because the people had no choice. Vote for the corrupt conservatives or vote for the NDP. They held their noses and voted NDP just to get the conservatives out and teach them a lesson. They will return in the next election and hopefully have smartened up. I said, I hope.  

Its not the east job to "help" the West, pull yourselves up by your own bootstraps!

Bombardies is kept alive off of the backs of Ontarians, which is why we want Quebec to seperate because we were supporting them and are sick of it, and we were doing it for a very long time.  Quebec tax payers probably spent alot of money to make the west get developed anyways, because for a long time Montreal was the economic driver of the nation and the west was just dirt and farms and used eastern money to build the infrastructure for oil.

 

Well they could have voted for Liberals.

(3)You know that Ontario is broke. Ontario is in debt to the tune of billions. That does not sound like a prosper economy or province to me, now does it?  Alberta and the west will only prosper when the people out west decide to do something about it, and separate from the east. Than you can keep all your socialist/communist programs and agendas like multiculturalism/bilingualism, foreign-aid, massive non-white immigration, and hopefully we will get rid of metric, a foreign measurement system that was forced on us by trudeau that does not belong here in the west. 

Ontario has the strongest economy in the nation right now, it is the biggest, unemployment is at an all time low, wages are rising, profits are rising, there was a time 5 years ago when it was bad, but it is quiet strong right now.  Alberta wouldn't even be able to pump oil without immigrants and if you seperate you won't get any white immigrants because the only whites going to alberta now are east coast mariners.  You think people are coming from sweden with paid 6 weeks minimum vacation to work low wage canadian jobs you need to drink the fresh coffee.
