- Skinny states that Singh doesn't allow that to influence his policy as a politician. That is correct, and matches the position of the Conservative leader.
- The whole point is that religion is NOT a monolith for either party leader, because they share the same personal vs policy beliefs, but that someone likes to pick and choose and spread false information 
Now Scheer is a child molester. I honestly don't know what kind of mental gymnastics took place to where that argument made sense to make. Truly an absurd statement, you're right.

" Speaking to reporters in New Brunswick, Scheer, a practising Catholic, said that while he opposes abortion, a government led by him wouldn't enact any government legislation to ban the procedure or support the efforts of any Conservative backbench MP to limit the practice."
Just for the record I'm very pro-choice, think religion should have absolutely no place in politics, and neither should corrupt frauds who breach ethics laws. Three times. |
Again, has Singh stated that he is against abortion personally? Because if he didn't, your argument about Manic isn't really valid.
Singh as a Sikh can be for or against abortion personally, regardless of his religion. This is what mike was arguing...
Although manic is heavy handed, if Scheer is on record of being against abortion, he absolutely deserves all the criticism in the world for it, party policy notwithstanding.
