There's never been a more amorphous vague similarity in policies among the Conservatives, Liberals and NDP.
That's simply because they're all corporatist parties selling corporatist values with conservative fiscal policies.
  Canada has moved quite far to the right wing since the rise of Mulroney (along with Ronald Reagan) in 1984. Liberals are now conservatives; conservatives are Americanized right wingers; NDP are liberals. With Harper gone, there's never been less difference among them.

   Notice the reputation of  "Lyin" Brian Mulroney has been resurrected by the media, including "liberals" like Lawrence Martin.
     Mulroney left office in 1992, plagued by various scandals and personal greed,with an (un) popularity rating of 13%. His wife was being compared to Queen Marie Antoinette.
  But now the 1980's look like the good ol 'days.

  Soon Stephen Harper;s reputation, like Nixon's and Dubya Bush's, will be resurrected, cleansed for the history books. To salvage Canada's brand.
