    Harper had a reasonable immigration level, and wanted to diversify globally. So I’m just using that as an estimation, Id be curious what makes you think he’s lying when his predecessor did reasonably at those things.

      Harper isn’t Pierre. Also he wasn’t running again last time. Harper had his own set of problems, and I won’t get into them.

        With Harper we had a good standard of living. Rents fell relative to income, food bank usage wasn’t as extreme as it is now despite being in a recession. Our dollar was doing well.

        What measure were we worse in, some climate change metric that doesn’t matter when taken globally? Indigenous are somehow worse off despite tens of billions in new debt going to them.
