but his roots are further to the right, no center right for this asshole. O'Toole supports defunding the CBC, no carbon tax, go for pipelines, against the right to die with dignity and other issues. These are not center right positions, imo.

Interestingly, he was also a registered lobbyist for Facebook while working for Heenan Blaikie, a now defunct law firm.
