This has always been the case with the right wing. They believe that wealthy white straight cismen are the perfect expression of humanity, and everyone who deviates from that mold should be punished. Their “freedom” exists only for people they regard as the top of the hierarchy and basically consists of the freedom to be greedy assholes.
I wish people would get this through their heads and stop electing them. It doesn’t matter what the talking head du jour does or doesn’t say—the Conservative Party of Canada’s track record is clear all the way back to the days when it was the Reform Party, and even the most apparently innocuous member of it is complicit.
The Liberals are quietly corrupt in spots and sometimes stunningly inept, but the Conservatives are nasty. It’s past time for the NDP to have their chance to screw up the country instead.

Wasn’t there a German guy back in the 1930s who advocated for similar ideas…
That’s the logic of the conservative right … they want freedom … the freedom to affect the freedom of others … aka the freedom to control the lives of others for their own benefit.
They don’t care about everyone’s freedom … they only care about their own freedom.
