This is what I've been saying, Harper is riding the fear train and no one is calling him out for it. I'd like to see what the CPC supporters on this forum think about it.

I don't buy the bolded for a second.
When you can show me, in any speech never mind every speech, where Harper ties the fear to any 'religious group comprised mostly of Canadians', I'll absolutely change my opinion.
I otherwise am not impacted by the 'fear mongering' in any way. Perhaps I should be, I'm just not. I'm worried about the economy and taxes. I thought the proposed travel ban legislation is unnecessary and ridiculous, but it has zero impact on me. Perhaps to be mostly only concerned with what impacts me is selfish and is too narrow a view. But at this point in my life, I'm OK with that.
