Jivani told Canadians to “join him” in discussing the future of our country and how we can restore the promise of Canada.

 

So we joined him. 

 

What does this tour really say about the Conservative movement in Canada? Is this a genuine effort to connect with young voters, or the import of an American-style populist playbook?
