Everyone abandoned the liberals after their big defeat 4 years ago. Now everyone reappears as candidates. So fake. I still haven't forgotten Larry throwing the entire Yukon under the bus with the gun registry. And when someone retires that usually what that means. Not come back because now there might be chance to win. Pathetic. But, thank you for showing me your true values and integrity.

I'm quite confident that upon hearing Mr. Bagnell's success, Mr. Leef's first words were something like "Oh fsck".
Hope you enjoyed your playtime in Parliament Ryan... The only thing you'll be remembered for is calling the PM a cannibal... something that I'd almost vote for you again for in hopes you could top that introduction. Almost.
