The Liberal Party has a secret to ruling Canada: campaign on the left, then govern on the right.
From Mackenzie King to the Trudeaus to Mark Carney, Martin Lukacs breaks down a century of Liberals posturing as progressives—only to serve as faithful servants of the corporate elite.

There is no evidence whatsoever for a left and right. Check on Amazon Books for one by the Lewis brothers.
Right on! This time the hook for many of my activist friends was his position at the UN on climate change. And look where that went! I voted NDP in my riding, but a Liberal won. He’s not awful, like Carney’s turned out to be, but…..he’s sure not “progressive” in his overall performance in the House. I suggested to him, via his constituency office, as other MPs were crossing the floor to the Libs, that he should cross the floor to the NDP.
