Canada election: Liberals sweep to power
Quoted Text
Canada's Liberal Party has decisively won a general election, ending nearly a decade of Conservative rule. The centrist Liberals, led by Justin Trudeau, started the campaign in third place but in a stunning turnaround now command a majority.
During the 11-week election campaign, the Liberal Party said it would: ~ Cut income taxes for middle-class Canadians while increasing them for the wealthy ~ Run deficits for three years to pay for infrastructure spending ~ Do more to address environmental concerns over the controversial Keystone oil pipeline ~ Take in more Syrian refugees, and pull out of bombing raids against Islamic State while bolstering training for Iraqi forces ~ Legalize marijuana BBC |

Trudeau and the Liberal Party in Canada is not the equivalent of Obama and the Democratic Party in the U.S.A. Trudeau is in favor of keeping Canada's low corporate tax rate, building Keystone, etc. |

Now they are removing their "6" fighter jets from the fight against ISIS...ALL 6
But the Trudeau Family is so photogenic --- so it doesn't matter where he stands on the issues. |

This Trudeau is not his father. He's a frickin' organ grinder monkey and lets get something straight, he's not a liberal, he's a socialist.
But it's Canada and really...Who cares? |

Corporations pay taxes in Canada? Most US corporations do not pay any income tax at all. |

Half of Trudeau’s Cabinet Members are Women
Quoted Text
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau “has named a young and ethnically diverse cabinet, with a ministerial team that for the first time in the country’s history is equally balanced between men and women,” The Guardian reports.
“The ministers – 15 women and 15 men – are mostly aged under 50, in a team marking both a generational change and a commitment to reflecting Canada’s diversity.”
Asked to explain the gender parity, Trudeau answered: “Because it’s 2015.”
