I suppose that interpretation makes some degree of sense in the world of politics. However, given the extreme nature of this bill, I think it’s a poorly calculated risk for the Liberals, assuming they truly do disagree with it. As Joe S points out, the plan appears to be that Trudeau will grudgingly go along, in hopes that one day, when he is in a position of power, he will be able to then undo the damage. I’m not aware that such a strategy has been very successful in the past.

And I am particularly peeved today by this reminder about the Conservative and Liberal financial attack against the NDP:

Seems to me that the Liberals choose to dance with the devil a little too often.
