No, I'm politically astute, because I spend time with MLAs and MPs learning how the political levers are pulled.
Standing in a debate, facing 2 million voters, and declaring that opening a grizzly hunt will happen, against the wishes of all but a few hundred thousand hunters and their families, is a non-starter.
Lots of politicians do things after they were elected that they were wise to avoid during the campaign. That's how they get elected in the first place. Just look at how many idiots on this very forum voted NDP by believing that Horgan was going to keep the grizzly hunt and just require meat removal.
