Federal Conservatives have formed three majority (and three minority) governments in the last 63 years. The Liberals had seven majority and six minority govts. Federally we’re Red for better or worse

The problem isn’t Trudeau; it’s that prime ministers have too much power
Canadian prime ministers have always been powerful, but lately, it has been taken to unprecedented extremes
