The Liberals just won a majority government! This is a victory for legalization enthusiasts! Justin Trudeau, the leader of the Liberal party, has promised to legalize marijuana, and he is to be Canada's next Prime Minister!

We had our hopes up after the great black dope got in who had made many promises. All lies and jest, they still arrest and prosecute and we still are not legal.

Repeating "hope and change" is not communicating anything but empty rhetoric. Libtards are suckers for empty rhetoric because it matches their empty intellects.

Shins was the one repeating "Hope and Change". No one else brought it up. Then made a straw man argument against it.

Hope and change were the liberal party's platform trudea constantly repeated these words without substantiating them at all. Empty rhetoric that the libtards gobbled up just like the obama libtards ate up the same empty rhetoric from him.
I didn't bring it up in a vaccum. It was the canadian liberal party's campaign which repeated hope and change.
its lame that that type of empty rhetoric and political fluff works so well on libetals. All they care about is how ot sounds and feels emotionally, they are too dumb/lazy to demand actual policy apecifics and details, empty slogans are good enough.

Saying "reform" or "change" on its own is next to meaningless. Change what? Change it how? Why will changing it be better? Its another quintessential anti-vote. Most people didn't vote FOR the liberals, they voted AGAINST Steven Harper. It was "anything but harper" People didn't care much what the Liberal party's policies were, they only cared that it wasn't Harper. For all we know its going to be a change for the worse, just like Obama. The Liberals' economic plan is to replicate the economy which caused the great recession. Their #1 stated economic priority is to subsidize real estate; low income "sub prime" mortgages, Canada will see a boom/bust economy all over again. We will have an economic crisis in a few years if the Liberals do what they way and cost of livng is about to rise.

I think that will be one of his top priorities. If he does not do I doubt most of the young people who voted for him because of it will ever vote Liberal again. A lot of them might never vote again unless the NDP promise them weed.

I know more than one person who voted justin based on looks alone. 9/10 people I know probably didn't know who were they were voting for until a day or two before. First it was the NDP bandwagon and no way libs because of bill C-51. but once the whims of the mob shifted to justin's overly-dramatic, bit passionate empty rhetoric, all of a sudden everyone forgets about bill C-51 and is herded by shepard trudeau.
We would have been better off with a minority government, a majority means the Libs can basically pass any laws they want, they have many more seats than all other parties combined. Harper did this! The conservatives didn't even try! What a pathetic campaign! They caused such dislike that the country polarized against them and now we have a majority Government that is uncontested in legislature and believes in centrally planned, command economy. They want to inflate an economic bubble which is going to pop into a bust. Expect inflation, Rich 1% investment bankers will be able to profit from an inflated bubble, bust most will just feel rising prices until the inevitable bust. The government Investing billions into housing is going to inflate a real estate bubble, supply/demand. Your uncle who already owns a home, and me and my buddies who build and renovate homes will profit, and douche guy who flips houses will be in the money. To you houses will be more expensive than ever, but hey, the government will lend you the money, and a student loan too. You might get your school and house, but good luck EVER paying it off in your life!

Since this is either the third or fourth time the Liberals have made that same promise don't hold your breath.
Besides which you know even if they do legalize it they will tax the shit out of it and restrict its potency to that of commercial Mex. I'll stick with my tried and true drug dealer, at least I know he's an honest crook, a lot more than I can say for a Liberal of any kind.

I don't know about your US politicos but most of the Canadian ones, especially the Liberals, are due for a long prison sentence if only someone in our country was concerned about corruption.
