No room for JT as Harper already lives in your mind forever rent free  |
I mean Harper has been in the news for political reasons recently. Yesterday in fact.

"I was —#I think it's fair to say —#probably the most pro-American prime minister in Canadian history," Harper said of his tenure from 2006 to 2015.
If the current government asked#him a year ago for advice on U.S. President Donald Trump being re-elected and wanting to renegotiate trade, he says he would have thought it was#a#real opportunity for Canada to#deepen its economic and security partnership with the United States."However, when this government did actually ask me a few weeks ago ... my advice was the opposite," he told the Midwestern Legislative Conference, an annual#non-partisan event#being held in Saskatoon this year#under the shadow of the ongoing U.S.-Canada trade war.
Harper called the trade war unfortunate, but said Canada has become "grossly" overly reliant on the U.S. —#"independent of the current disputes" — and there is no reason for that.
"Just because we have that geographical proximity does not justify the degree of dependence that we have on a single market," he said.
The last thing I saw from Trudeau was a pic of him rock climbing a few days ago.
