A fairly reasonable analysis of how the Conservatives should proceed. The deficit is where the Liberal government is the most vulnerable and where the Conservatives should focus their efforts. They should abandon the simplistic 'privatization and lowering taxes for the wealthy' strategy, and distance themselves from the social conservatism of the Harper government. Also, they shouldn't waste time with pointless rhetoric about talking tough to Trump, Putin etc.  - Trudeau has a good grasp of diplomacy and his approach is likely the wisest one.
