He's a passive aggressive. He's so calm and emotionless through out most of his speeches that it's eerie, yet, if you actual pay attention to his words there generally on controversial subjects.
Though, he’s more of an opportunist; he led the Conservatives though out the one time they’ve stood a chance in hell of making it into parliament. He also jumped on the gay marriage scandal opposing it in true Conservative fashion.
He loses my respect though for not being able, or at least being too timid to go through with any of his plans. He has not banned gay marriage, he has not completely abolished the thought of marijuana becoming legal in Canada and he has yet to make any great impact.
It’s a lost cause for the Conservatives this year, they’re too scared to meet a deadlock in votes and thus stay the hell away from any thing the liberals would oppose with great force.
tlrd? Conservatives are screwed.
