I think it speaks to the cult of celebrity these days. The reason why Trump got elected, why people think Oprah might be a good President, etc. Being a good, competent, and boring elected official just isn't sexy, which is a shame.

God, I hope not.

The entire concept of "political dynasty" leaves me cold.

A very good reason for that attitude sits in the PM's office.

Mulroney competing would certainly rehabilitate the PC's brand, which never recovered from the Harris years, when the party, much like the federal PC party, was hijacked by conservative fundamentalists... what David Frum characterised the other day with respect to Trump's government, as the "C" team.

Try slinging mud at her due to the more dubious elements of her father's record, and watch it ricochet back at you.

It may be the start of a movement for progressive conservatives to get their parties back

Because what we really need is a centrist spectrum of parties that are exactly the same. /s

Liberal-Tory, same old story.

Edited to say: it seems to me it is the Ontario Liberal Party that needs to move back towards the centre.

Even the current PCs are basically right wing extremists. We can’t afford another Mike Harris, even if it’s a “lite version”.

And who the hell thinks Mulroney has a positive name value? Are you kidding me?
