In reply to the discussion: William Shatner doesn't understand why Harris lost [View all]canuckledragger
(1,992 posts)29. Justin Trudeau is unpopular among conservatives
        Mostly because of non-stop right wing lies about him, and an ignorant populace that doesn't understand how their government works.
The trucker tantrum in Ottawa during the pandemic is a prime example, where idiots were baited and stirred up by outside influences, a few found to come from the US later on, where they tried to scapegoat Trudeau for mask mandates and such they didn't like, not understanding that the mandates were provincial, not federal, and they should've been whining to Doug Ford, the corrupt conservative Premier of Ontario....but because he's one of their own, they don't say boo about him.
A lot of it is also the expected immigrant slandering from the conservatives, racist's favourite punching bag.

        I don't know why William Shatner would agree to go on the Bill Maher show.

        But as always, Maher had to be an arrogant jerk. Had to be oppositional with his hero, didn't he?

        I think he used to be an ethical vegetarian and a republican. That combination confused me. But that was long ago.

        It's a figure I heard a long time ago. Nimoy did not have Shatner's salary.

        I don't have to prove anything to you, especially since you have nothing to offer but your own obsession with the topic.

        We are clear. It was clear in my first post that it was a long-standing memory, not an encyclopedic fact.

        And that's why you are arguing with me repeating this nonsense about proof?  So you can kick your OP?

        Prices have not 'come down'.  Thats not how lowering the inflation rate works.  Prices are not rising as fast
