- Were you shocked at the results of the 2016 American presidential election? Most people were, but Stephen Harper was not one of them. Here, the former Prime Minister of Canada explains the trends that foreshadowed Trump’s victory and left many political elites looking wildly out of touch.

Script:
I was elected to the Parliament of Canada seven times-three times as Prime Minister. I did not expect Donald Trump to be elected President of the United States. But unlike most observers, I did think it was at least possible. Why?
Because I sensed, as Mr. Trump surely did, that the political landscape had shifted.
The underlying issue is this: Over the last few decades, thanks to globalization, a billion people-mostly in the emerging markets of Asia-have lifted themselves out of poverty. This, of course, is a good thing. Yet, in many Western countries, the incomes of working people have stagnated or even declined over the same period.
In short, many Americans voted for Donald Trump because the global economy has not been working for them. We can pretend that this is a false perception. We can keep trying to convince people that they misunderstand their own lives. Or we can try to understand what they are saying and offer some solutions.
I prefer the latter approach.
Let me begin with this:
In our contemporary world, there are, as British journalist David Goodhart describes it, those who can live “Anywhere,” and those who live “Somewhere.”
Imagine you work for an international bank, computer company, or consulting firm. You can wake up in New York, London, or Singapore and feel at home. Your work is not threatened by import competition or technological dislocation. You vocally support all international trade agreements and high levels of immigration. You are one of those who can live Anywhere. There are a lot of those people. But there are a lot more completely unlike them.
Let’s say you’re a factory worker, a small-businessperson, or in retail sales. Your work has been disrupted by outsourcing, cheap imports and technological change. Your children attend the local schools and your aging parents live nearby. Your social life is connected to a local church, sports team, or community group.
If things go badly at your company, or if policy choices by politicians turn out to be wrong, you can’t just shift your life to somewhere else. Like it or not, you depend on the economic policies of your national or state government. When it doesn’t come through for you, you’re not happy. And when it ignores you entirely, you get angry.
It’s easy for Anywheres to dismiss these concerns. But the Anywheres’ faith in global solutions and multi-national political bodies is founded more on fantasy than fact.
The fact is, the critical functions of laws and regulations and monetary and fiscal stability, among other things, are provided by nations, not global institutions.
The nation, with all its flaws, is a concrete reality. The “global community” is little more than a concept. Yet it is the Anywheres, with their faith in globalization-not the Somewheres-who have dominated the politics of almost every advanced country.
That is, until now.
This sea-change is not limited to the United States. The same dynamics-“Anywhere” elites versus “Somewhere” populists-is playing out all across the Western world.

I wrote PM Harper a letter while he was in office thanking him for the excellent job he was doing at a time when he was taking heat. Yes, he wrote me back. A class act. All the best, sir.
there are only 10 people in canada so it's easy to write back

I sure miss you Mr. Harper. In my humble opinion, you have been, and forever will be, Canada's greatest Prime Ministers. Thank you for your service to our country. 🇨🇦
Ian Hillman I'm also Canadian. 🇨🇦
Can he run again for PM? He should do it.
It's sad that we need to have a Canadian dish the straight truth - even to our own 'conservative' party. People in D.C.: GET A CLUE!
Art Curious If he wanted to he could but I wouldn’t blame him if he didn’t. A lot of Canadians treated him very badly so he probably thinks, why should I? He would always have my vote.

Let's be real here. It was a two way street on that issue, Harper hated the media because of thier unprofessional and biased behavior and the media hated him because he refused to engage with them on thier terms
Holy shit. The former PM of Canada went on PragerU? We are making huge progress.
PragerU is like the largest conservative think tank in the world
Didn't a Danish PM went on PragerU
@@borkerman yeah he did
Oh don't even compare. Trudeau sucks so much.
@Dandan Why America must lead.
How the flipping heck did we go from Harper to Trudeau? How?!
Because we were sick of him and he was a globalist who raised our immigration numbers. Hes only changed since he saw reality a year or two ago.
We forgot we needed Harper.
because of our left educational system
People just wanted a change BUT look what happened, get rid of him in Oct 2019
Vidyagamesnake but Trudeau is far worse
“Serving real people rather than theories” that is so true
And the billionaire man/child represented this through really great marketing - And that's about it!
As a Canadian, I am sickened that we traded this man in for what we have now.
As a Canadian, I hope you vomit in your natural home, south of the border.

The media is no longer the friend of the people. They aim to be their psuedo rulers. PM blackface is a horrible person. Canada deserves better.
Back in 16 we Had a mock vote at our middle school trump won and i saw people crying 😂😂😂
Thank God they'll still be too young to vote in '20
@an account I'm in middle school and I know politics and a lot of other classmates know politics
@an account yeah most people don't know
I live in a dem state so when we did it Hilary got 98% of the vote 😂
Same but only three people voted trump for my class
Mr. Harper, do us all a favor and run for Canadian Prime Minister again. The free world needs people like you.
And this dude will still be labeled evil, sexist, homophobe even though he did not mention any of those topics. I'm glad to see Canada also standing up for conservatism.
You need to see Justin Trudeau
Unfortunately, he was voted out a few years ago, after 10 goods years in office. His replacement was a spoiled rich kid turned drama teacher / snowboard instructor whose dad used to be Prime Minister.
RealJWu your statement means nothing. You said "Treudou bad because he had a dad" and took no stance on anything. Like, bruh, have like, some courage.
@@realjwu860 Trudeau is the son of the late Fidel Castro!!!
I haven't mentioned a lot of things I know ordinary people would disapprove of, but it doesn't necessarily mean that those things people's disapprove of aren't still in my personality. I'm not saying he's a bad guy or that your thoughts on him are wrong- but your logic isn't in tune with reality.
The reality is that people get away with theft, murder, and rape all the time- these are physical actions which are able to be proved or disproven- and yet, we are flawed in knowing 100 percent of the time whether they are guilty.
If people get away with provable, factual crimes, then how are we to know what goes on the inside of a person we aren't close with? How are we to know whether they are good or bad people, except based on faith?
This could be a fine man, perhaps a little ignorant, but not necessarily purposefully misleading, because I don't know enough to come to a conclusion.
Instead of deciding right now, impatiently, blind from ignorance, that "he is a good man" or "he is a bad man", I simply say: he is a human being capable of all the good and bad complexities as any other human being-
Placing blind faith on it now could be a disaster though, because I don't know what this human is truly capable of. We all have the power of Hitler and of angels inside all of us. You can't know
I live in Vancouver, Canada. And I can say that Stephen Harper was one of the best Prime Ministers we have ever had. We had an awesome economy under him and our country did well, even during the big 2008 recession. I don't know why we elected Justin Soyboy in. Mr. Harper, if you are reading this then please come back and run again as PM of Canada.
_I don't know why we elected Justin Soyboy in._
I do. Women voted for him. Based on his looks. www.cbc.ca/news/politics/justin-trudeau-s-liberals-lead-among-women-stephen-harper-s-conservatives-among-men-1.2899089

Asian political fights are pretty entertaining as well.

I have made the BIGGEST mistake for voting Trudeau when I was in school because I was told it was the "right" thing to do. My apologies Mr. Harper and to all of my fellow Canadians.
@Syrus Coy Actually, if anything, he made the situation worse. Obama pulled troops out of the middle east, which left a power vacuum that, guess what, was literally the basis of why Isis flourished.
Looks so somebody told you,..
at least TERORICH thanked to you hehehe
@Syrus Coy I remember the first few years of Obamas presidency when he was being called President Do-Little as he did nothing. Well, he did handle the gulf coast oil spill poorly and throw some parties at the white house but that was it. As time went on he introduced indefinite detention without a trial and other shocking laws but reddit was still sucking Obamas dick as they still do. Obama was a medioce to okay president but damn, his skin color and smooth orating skills are the only reason why people liked him.
I did the same I think my teacher said and I quote “It time we have someone else other than a conservative” I voted for Trudeau and so did mostly everyone else in our grade because we were stupid brainwashed kids
That's why I'm happy HuffPost "journalists" were laid-off. They suffered the consequences of what they promoted.
I saw the articles about Buzzfeed laying off people and Tucker mentioned it, hadn't heard about HuffPo doing the same before. Either way, I think it's time that *all* the leftist journos were laid off and had to go get a real job.
They that sow the wind, reap the whirlwind
@RUclips Account#:457 gotta learn to code

More likely because they are a bunch of biased sleazeballs who live in an echo chamber and will do anything to achieve their goals including murder. Some of their hit peices are pure propaganda. Goebbels would be proud of HuffPo
Canada was lucky to have Harper as their PM. Trudeau is making Canada into a laughingstock.
I don't think Canada's a laughing stock. I mean it was Trump that was laughed at, during a UN meeting.
@@harnanmylvaganam6311 Trudeau was laughed at by Indians during his disastrous India 'trade' visit. "Too Indian for Indians" was how one local pundit described his Bollywood outfits, JT even invited someone to be a member of his Canadian junket who was banned from India for terrorism. Trump has his failings and so does our social dilettante in the PMO, our leader who gets laughed at abroad while we cringe at home.
David Nissim Mmm so we are going to ignore that the Russian Government admitted they hacked, and rigged the elections? Also we are going to ignore that the economy was getting better and better even long before Trump?

@@harnanmylvaganam6311 okay. sure thing. People kind.
Well, red pilling complete. I just agreed with a man I used to see as the devil. I never thought I would miss Stephen Harper.
If this convinced you, you are stupid. Painting the "Elite" as people who travel and live in big cites, but are still just working class people, instead of business owners that rule all conservative thought. Trump pretends to be a populist by strawmanning west coast elites and telling the working class that their views actually align with the people who want to pay them as little as possible. Supporting this viewpoint requires ignorance.
And as of today, Thanks to the China bug, you are getting a little preview of socialism. Limited freedoms, entertainment and services. Long lines for essential supplies. A government that decides who can work and when; sending a pittance to everyone else whenever they get around to it. I hope this tragedy stays in the minds of the far leftests of North America after it ends. THIS would be the norm! You won't just get free money with the rest of your life remaining the same!
You were LIED to by the Lame Stream Media. Cut yourself some slack.
There's a famous quote by Winston Churchill.
I will paraphrase.
If you're 20 and not a liberal; you have no heart. If you're 35 and not a conservative you have no brain.
You got away from liberal propaganda; and now you see the world through the eyes of logic and reason instead of childish emotion.

Soon enough, you'd have to be 21 to go outside and you'd need a license. You could *only* walk on designated sidewalks where they can watch you with cameras.
Money is abolished, and you have to wait for food. All forms of non-green energy is banned. Power outages become common and normal.

Dear Harper.. Canada misses you and true Canadians miss you too. Im sorry so many Canadians fell for leftist Trudeau. I’m happy you served me and my country as our PM. Best Wishes to you Harper
Thank you Mr Steven Harper for your service while you were in office, thank you for your leadership. your leadership in Canada will be greatly missed.
I too made the ghastly mistake of voting for Trudeau. Mr. Harper was like a father who knew best who had children who simply thought they were smarter and should follow the advice of the irresponsible teenager down the road. History will show that you, as well as Mr. Mulroney were two of the greatest Prime Ministers Canada ever had.
I don't think it "will" be greatly missed I think it "is" greatly missed. The current government has alienated the west.
Nope he wont be missed. Canadians are happy that parasite is out of office. while Trudeau isnt that good, hes not bringing down our nation. Harper was disatrous for this nation. lowering our dollar value, Selling off our industry and resources to china, and getting us involved in America's and Israhell's wars. while trudeau has his problems hes 100x better then the disaster that was harper.
@@TheFallinhaloright now we have a prime minister who has broken the law twice now and he refuses to apologize for any of his wrongdoings but he can apologize for anything anyone else did. All I see in his party is corruption under the gauze of a party who used to stand up for middle class workers.

Well, Prager U is a conservative organization, and he is a conservative.
This is a great economic analysis of the political forces that led to Trump's victory. My father works in the auto industry, and I remember growing up hearing about how China and Japan were ripping us off on trade, how the elites were buying elections and using politicians as leverage for their own gain. I remember feeling surprised at the time that no politician really talked about the issues with globalization, and the neglect of the "forgotten men and women" laid fertile soil for the rise of Donald Trump. The fact that the left wing is so fiercely critical of not only Trump, but also critical of his generally poorer, less educated supporters for being stupid and racist or "deplorable" shows that they really don't care about the issues his voters face, but rather would prefer just to shut them up, de-platform them and ignore their problems altogether. The only left wing candidate that I've noticed actually caring about these issues is Bernie Sanders. Say what you want about him, but at least he cares about Trump voters and the problems they're facing.
Alex Hawkenbery Trump cared for his voter base, but in office his solutions aren't really effective, he has however shown that he's pushing for them though.
And Bernie's solution is communism.
@@genericscout5408 It's a bit difficult to make effective solutions, when whole government attempts to slow you down or cancel your solutions...

I was with you until you brought up Bernie Sanders... He is a very smart man and he is absolutely the most dangerous man in American politics! I highly encourage you to research him thoroughly, you will find he his not what he seems to be...
@@pilgrim985 Not saying I necessarily agree with his policies or his character, but at the very least I commend him for actually caring about the issues that Trump voters face instead of just writing them off as stupid hillbillies that don't know what's best for them. The demographic that came out strongly for Trump hasn't been courted for decades and that's why we saw him win in states like Michigan and Pennsylvania with a large white working class population. All I'm saying is that most establishment democrats would prefer that Trump voters didn't even exist or even acknowledge their problems, but Bernie at least expresses that he cares about their issues.

Bryan Dunn it’s not all of us man, it’s just the left in America that sees everyone as a minority, and of course a couple of idiots like S.H. K., so yeah it’s not all Americans
The last good Prime Minister of Canada.
I do not agree with you because we can still have one. We have to vote for the right person. Honestly, I didn't vote for Harper and neither my family but none of us said that everything he did just wrong or just right. We agreed on many of his decision and disagree on others. No one is perfect and no one shares the exact same believes. Some of mine don't align with Harper. I am a nationalism in Quebec, so of course I have problem with any parties of Canada who don't value the nationalism of Quebec.
I do not like the conservatism but I don't want them to disappear. I don't like them but every countries needs them.
I believe everyone voices should be heard and everyone voice should be criticized.
Criticism isn't bad, it makes people better when they listen to it, see if the criticism is right or not.

@Robert Allala Harper stood for Canadian and Western values. Trudeau is a globalist who will not stand for free speech in Canada.
Trudeau pretty much defended the beaheading of Samuel Paty in France and did not stand for Canadian rights to freedom of speech. Very soon, he could allow Sharia for our country.
@Robert Allala Man I really hope Trump and his supporters fight back all the way. The future of democracy depends on it.
Trump would never tolerate Sharia in USA. Biden I am not sure would stand against those who want to behead non Muslims since well you know.... it is "Islamophobic" to do that and Biden does not want to be called a biggot.

There has not been a single terrorist attack under the Trump presidency. Because they know Trump would not put up with that.

Harper did nothing for Canada economic wise. Heck, even social wise. We Canadians had four years of negative growth under the moron. Promised to balance the budget but had six years of deficit. The mental midget decreased taxes while also increasing spending by 20%. Which makes no sense to anyone with a brain.

@@zonex731 ummm, no, he isn't and that is why Trudeau will be reelected again. Probably with another majority government, too. Most Canadians think Trudeau is doing an average job. Which is an improvement over Harper.
Wow are you ever uninformed. By the way Trudeau is the most hated PM and the worst PM in Canadian history. He is also a traitor. Maybe you need to watch the video again because you totally missed the point.
I was critical of Stephen Harper and the conservatives. Now that I see what followed after him, I want him back in office pronto. Now we have girls voting for Prime Ministers just because they're handsome and some girls in the U.S trying to elect a president NOT because she's the best candidate but just because she's the only woman. The world has gone from informed decision-making to flaky superficial choices made by groups who's worst qualities are just pandered to. It's no longer what's best for everyone, it's all about groups telling society what's best without needing facts at all. Anyone who doesn't agree with the group can be safely ignored and be crushed because they're just evil and aren't human. The media has been hijacked by one-sided, extremist opinions and seem to be siding with that attitude that they're right and the narratives creep in to create stories about every event. That isn't journalism, that's mere propaganda. When the truth which was formerly created from all sides is now claimed as wrong and biased, instability and insanity have taken over. Facts are replaced by propaganda, rumour mills and fear-mongering. It's the same story repeated daily in an echo chamber. If the facts are all wrong and everything must be changed, no one is to be listened to and order means nothing at all to anyone. Whatever we're obsessed and fixated on as a society will destroy us.
Clearly, you aren't Canadian -- the vast majority of Canadians remember Harper for the useless tool he was and is. He is one of the reasons why Trudeau will win again this year.
are there girls who vote simply because the dudes attractive? good lord what has our world come to
Agnostic Atheist He's still better than Trudeau. Not like that is very hard.
@@agnosticatheist7529 At least Harper kept Canada out of debt. Stephen Harper and Jim Flaherty are the reasons Canada didn't crumble with the rest of the world economy in 2008. I sincerely hope Canadians won't vote for a man who coined phrases such as "peoplekind" or made statements like "the budget will balance itself." Remember back in his campaign days when he promised the budget would be balanced in 2019? HA HA! Now the Liberal government has spent so much money they claim we can't get out of the red until 2040. Yes, 2040. Why would anyone vote for this incompetence again?
For an external reference to how poorly the liberals manage our hard earned cash, here's the Financial Post: "For the month of October, which is as far as the latest report goes, the federal government posted a deficit of $1.1 billion, compared with a deficit of about $400 million in the same month last year." (business.financialpost.com/news/economy/finance-department-predicts-federal-budget-will-be-balanced-by-2040)
To be fair though, Trudeau is pretty hot.
Pretty much, the blue collar class of America has been forgotten a long time ago

Hi Stephen Harper
I voted for you 3 times. I'm a conservative but the reason why Trudeau won the last election was because Stephen Harper didn't know when his time was up. If a different leader for the Conservative party was present, the conservatives would have won. Now it's been almost 4 years of stupidity non stop. Next election, Canada, please vote conservative.
Harper was STILL 10x the Prime Minister Trudope turned out to be.
wait, three? dont they only go for two terms?
@@kemosonicfan123lbp Nope, Canada doesn't have term limits like the US
Dzav you are sheep, you don't think before you vote and your vote is sold off. This guy harper didnt do crap for the conservatives in the 9-10 years he was the prime minister.
Brap Digi yes ...me sheep....baaa....baaa
We miss you Harper! Please, make Canada Canada again!
I had a bad feeling before during Hilary's email scandal. While yeah, like my history teacher mentioned Trump himself went through LOTS of court cases and made poor public decisions what's more important wasn't the input, but the output. His support remained consistent. You can tell during Hilary's email scandal that her supporters had a shadow of a doubt. Didn't help at all that she didn't FULLY take the responsibility and even tried to shirk off a few accusations.
Thank you, dear Stephen Harper, You are the Great Man, Outstanding stateman, wonderful personality! G-d bless you!

This man was probably the best Prime Minister Canada ever had. Too bad the media managed to convince the people of Canada to vote for the 'little potato' we have as Prime Minister now.
Harper is considered by the overwhelming majority of Canadians as a failure and a disgrace. He is also considered one of the worst Prime Ministers in Canadian history, ranking 18th out of the 22 that preceded him. Historians and political academia across Canada agrees with the majority of Canada's people on Harper being a long term mistake and ineffective Prime Minster.
@@steveandrews7434 You do not constitute an 'overwhelming majority'. Very arrogant.
I consider that the years he was Prime Minister were also years of economic global turmoil during which he largely kept Canada clear of the serious consequences of the 2008 meltdown that still roil in places like Europe.
@@kenvandeburgt1232 "were also years of economic global turmoil"
In which we have Paul Martin to thank for why Canada fared well during the recession. Strict regulations on our housing market and banking was the main reason why Canada did OK during the 2008 recession. All done under Paul Martin's governance. However, prior to the 2008 recession, Harper had 4 years of negative job growth and never had a GDP gain of more than 1.2%. Not to mention he not once had a GDP or Job growth gain of over that in almost 10 years of governance.
Harper increased spending by 20%, inflating the deficit HUGE from the surplus and booming economy he walked into from Paul Martin awesome economic management in the late 90s. While Harper increased spending, he also decreased taxes, making for one of Canada's largest deficit increases since our countries conception. Only now do we have a government in place where the deficit is likely to be payed back some by the end of 2019, THANKS TRUDEAU!
I could go on and on, however, you right-wingers think being willfully ignorant is a virtue -- so whats the point?
@@steveandrews7434 I can agree with you about Martin getting the spending under control. Too bad we don't have someone like that in charge of the treasury now.
Yes, CBC must go or be replaced by a new team that will inform Canadians, not brainwash them.
This is one of the most common sense videos I've seen.
Trump 2020!!!
He was an awesome Prime Minister. I wish we still had him but the sjw's up here ruined everything.
Totally agree. It's not about being "for" or "against" DT; it's about realizing the reality of most people. It is unfathomable to me that the masses have lost site of this "duh" common sense but here we are. He states it perfectly.
It is a very good video with a massive flaw. It is technology and the free market creating these changes.You cannot buck the market unless you want to try socialism. Steven Harper is arguing for nationalisation and protectionism.
It looks common sense because it doesn't really make any arguments. Both of the groups of people in which he tries to split the population apart are not really defined in any significant way outside of arbitrarily calling them "somewheres" and "anywheres", and the points expressed for one group could just as well be translated for the other group. Employing labor that can theoretically be replaced, depending on govt regulations and relying on local economic situations aren't really exclusive to any specific class of people. The video just draws an arbitrary line between some workers and others (and I'm sure that there's definitely no hidden intent in splitting the groups apart further by portraying one as nerdy, glass-wearing office types who live in a giant tower while showing the other as small shop owners and working-class people while conveniently ignoring the complexity of both of these labor markets).
He understood America. Same reason he's a billionaire. Not saying he will fulfill his promises. I'm not even republican but I can objectively say that he had a pulse on the country, which is actually kind of impressive since he's so far removed from the common man. For some reason the other people in politics were clueless about the struggles of everyday Americans even though that's literally their job. I keep telling my liberal friends and they're like "Nope, racism!" 🤦🏾♂️ Being a black liberal in NYC is hell.
@Tiger Dragon he has a tower made of gold you dumb shit

@@williammise686 his dad shoveled money into his account as a child. He had about 300K by the time he was 8 and his father tried bailing his businesses out multiple times.
Tiger Dragon Even if his casinos went bankrupt, why is he still a multi billionaire? Why are his many skyscrapers, golf courses, hotels and wineries scattered across the globe still open if he is this failed business man? The man starts and runs hundreds of other business ventures, yet we focus on failed casinos that we can probably count on one to two hands. That's still 95% to 98% success rate with his businesses. The man even opened up a new hotel under budget and ahead of schedule WHILE RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT. Yet he is a failure? There is always risk, reward, and loss when it comes to business.
If you inherited roughly 1 million dollars, what would you do to invest that money and earn it back 3000 TIMES in the span of 5 decades? That's anywhere between 150k to 165k dollars a day.

He helped support oil, which is the only reason why he was so popular here in Alberta. I don’t like Trudeau because he doesn’t have a solid position, but I don’t think Harper is fit to lead Canada again, he had his time and he did his change.
Kulkinz educate me please, as a conservative i kinda like this guy
@@lansiman He's probably talking about how after losing to the Liberal Party four years ago, Harper would have continued being a representative (or MP as it is), but he decided to step down as MP the next year. If he no longer felt like representing his district/riding in parliament, then he can't represent and govern a party and country.
The conservative canadate for Canada is Andrew Sheer. Pretty good. Similar to Steven Harper maby even a bit more conservative. Hope he beats Trudeau. Polls show a tight race for the upcoming elections.

I currently live in California as an ANYWHERE, but I fully endorse nationalism (without murder). My only issue is with my deep rooted envy that, while the US has Trump, Canada has Trud… I can’t even type his full name, it’s so embarrassing. It’s like bringing a cabbage to a beaver fight.
In the past, I voted for Harper in every election because the socialist Liberals didn’t seem to understand how the economy worked, and then I moved my entire Engineering family to the US. Someday, I would like to go back to Canada, but only after the current bout of political silliness has died down.
It’s sad to watch Americans thinking that the Canadian flavor of socialism works, when it completely doesn’t, and it’s hard to listen to friends and family say you have been in the US too long when you suggest that personal prosperity is a good thing.
Let's just call him Turd them.
Yeah, Turd will do.
I want to buy a beach house in Canada but I’m gonna wait until Trud is replaced (see, I can’t even type his name either). Canada needs another Harper.
We actually don't know now if a Canadian minister is the best for the position or they just happen to have the right genitalia because Trudeau in 2015 said that he'll make sure the cabinet will be 50% male 50% female. Even though the pool of MP's is 75% male 25% female.
I agree with you but how can you live in California?? I mean San Francisco wants to change the word Criminal to Justice Involved Persons. They're insane in Cali. Or should I say 'Mentally Involved'. Canada is bad. But California starts the BS that makes it's way to Canada.

In regards to populism, Bernie Sanders is in fact a populist. He’s disliked by members of both parties and is against corporations and other large businesses bribing most politicians, a part of the status quo that has existed for over 200 years.

Man this guy is smart, how did Canada end up w/ Trudeau? Trudeau seems a lot like the Canadian Obama, a flash in pan, young, naive politician w/ little real world experience...that doesn't work in the 'real world'...
Harper was a good Prime Minister, that's why he was Prime Minister for 9 years. However Harper did have his flaws and scandals, he was still much better than Trudeau and should have stayed in.
AP AS nope not like Obama. Obama was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Trudeau is a soy boy moron
It's not a matter of right and left, conservation and progression. So many people sick and tired of globalism, outsourcing and neoliberalism. As a Korean, I admire a president Donald trump.
