Maxime calls for the end of supply management in eggs, poultry and milk.

I wonder what Martha Hall Findlay thinks.

Don’t know if you’re watching the Manning Conference on CPAC2 or not, but conservatives could do a heck of a lot worse than elevating Bernier to leadership.

The beginning of the public audits.

If there are folks out there saying there must be a decisive move to occupy some other space on the political spectrum, that’s just crazy. We’ve seen that fail in Canada, we’ve seen that fail elsewhere. That doesn’t work.

And because it’s never too early for leadership speculation:
There are two ‘litmus tests’, if you will, for my next Conservative leader. Fiscal prudence and a decided preference for decentralization. My current favourite is Maxime Bernier, but for only two reasons. I know he tends towards liberty and he isn’t afraid to voice his views, I don’t know his views on spending.
One of the downsides of the Harper years is that I don’t actually know what other contenders think.
