Don't you find that somewhat illogical? For one, it assumes that
Day will "lie, cheat and steal" (if I may use that expression) like
Cretien has, but all evidence is to contrary.
You say you're scared that Day will "impose" his values, but one of
the primary policies of the Alliance is to let the people determine the
values they will have in their country via referendum. Our current
situations is Trudeau's values are being imposed on everyone. What
you're really saying is "Better the devil you know, than your neighbour."
