Thx for this! As for me …

While this puts me in NDP territory, I suspect my views on a strong military, pro-Israel and better gun rules over no guns at all would, at best, leave me hard to place at a Team Orange dinner party

The HEMI engine. And the 318.

Had a Dart with the 318. Nice and peppy without being overpowered.

Did it too and much to my surprise found myself a smidgin to the right of where you are. The test is obviously flawed.

Do you have any examples of where the SCC did something (i.e. made decisions) that you thought were partisan, ideological, illegal, or just patently wrong from a legal perspective? Not trying to throw shade at your opinion, but if you have such a negative opinion of the SCC, I would genuinely like to know what you've seen for my own edification.

Stinchcombe, Gladue, Jordan...just a few off the top of my head.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not one of those who think the SCC is full of “woke progressive” types bent on turning the country into a gangsters’ paradise. And those decisions were probably the result of bad cases (I.e. bad cases make bad case law). But they have made some bone decisions that warrant parliamentary supervision, IMHO.
