People like Mulroney are so frustrating especially as a Conservative. By and large I think his policies were very good. I think the deal he got for Free Trade was better than any other PM would have achieved. His relationship with Thatcher and Reagan put Canada in maybe as prominent of a position as we’ve ever been in. At the same time not afraid to stand up to them if necessary. (apartheid). And grudgingly even the GST was good tax policy. But then he’s getting envelopes stuffed with cash. As George Costanza would say, “Is that wrong.”
