He comes from a hard work blue collar background and respects those principles. I think watching JT and Butts hail from privilege and mess with so many folks lives has pushed him to fight back against what he doesn’t respect.

I mean look at how the Liberals promised all that retraining for a green economy that hasn’t materialized, yet they are fairly happy to constrain Canadian livelihoods. Its a story he and all of us have seen before.

The left always likes to be the victim, but they helped propagate this problem post Trump. Going all in on “everyone who votes Trump did so because racism”.

Rex is a product but not the cause by any means.

Last, did anyone see Gerry Butts quit Twitter? Threw insults at Elon Musk and then left on a “please be kind” note. Case in point.
Is what you’re saying here that the things Rex Murphy voluntarily says are someone else’s fault?
