You don't really advance your case well by relying on immature name-calling in every comment regarding our PM, whether you like him as leader or not.  Any post that includes a bunch of name-calling is instantly less credible to any educated or thoughtful reader.

Regardless of who is PM, they need to rely on others' expertise to run a competent and trustworthy government.  The problem with Harper was that he trusted no one else in his cabinet and thought himself smarter and better than everyone else in the room, like an understated Trump.  Still a dreadful egotist, just a quieter one.

We don't know yet whether Raitt will work well with others.  She does seem very power-hungry.  Her decision to run is obviously up to her, but it does seem surprising that, when her spouse likely has only a few pretty good years left, and her kids may need her in a tough time, she is choosing to run for a leadership position, that will leave very little time for caregiving and privacy.
