I, for one, am so, so tired of this separation talk. With all that’s going on in the world can we not just work together instead of this childish nonsense? Reminds me of when my kids were young and when they didn’t get their way they would have a hissy fit!
PP is a Maple MAGA politician very skilled with the cheap shot sound bite. Canadians were extremely fortunate that the last Federal election turned out the way it did. PP never seems to be able to articulate nation-building. His negativity is frankly getting tiresome. He doesn't seem able to predict the ill effects of these ill-conceived nonsense sound bites.
Unfortunately not many people know this stuff. Pp just is an awful person and a liar. It’s amazing to me how many people will vote for him when he has no specific platform or any real idea how to advance Canada. I still firmly believe he will open the floodgates to USA coming in to Canada. His visits to mar a lardo and kissing trumps hand, literally, is the sign. Thank you for you research and writing. Much appreciated
Harper is more dangerous than Poilievre, especially given his performance as PM, and also now with his positions with IDU and AimCo. While trump is a danger to the world, Poilievre joins him as a strengthened danger to Canada, especially given that he is both supported and mentored by the aforementioned Stephen Harper.
Thanks Fred, I think a post you were very reluctant to send out, but, a must have! Is there a way we can wrap a chain around PP's mouth & give vent like 4 AM for 5 minutes? He's a petulant child!!! How can he ever expect to be taken seriously? He needs to be kicked out of his party & his welfare housing. He probably laughs in private about how easy it is for him to fool the government & travel the world on our dime!
Poilievre is a wiener and a dolt. The sooner the Conservative Party replaces him the sooner they can get elected. Carney will do a good job on CUSMA, so the Conservatives have about 2 years to get a smart candidate in place.
I agree. That is why we put Carney in place. But once CUSMA is (agonizingly) redone, many people might return to the idea of the Conservatives being elected. When that happens I have my doubts that Poilievre will help the Conservatives get votes.
Well, since everyone else in the comments has already dealt with all the influence stuff, I just have one question? When is someone going to shove a gd gag in his mouth, for pity's sake?
See the comments. We are all very aware of how this appears to have an awful lot of similarities with certain other countries. You …individuals… aren't fooling anyone. We see you. We are watching. Not here. Fuck no!

It's funny Ginny,... how national politics sometimes sounds like the backseat of a family road trip.
‘If I can’t have my way, nobody’s happy!’ 😄
Exactly.
Haha exactly! Except, they didn't get their way like PP did, now look at him!!! haha

That ‘nation-building’ point hits home, Jerry.
Canada needs serious ideas right now... not just applause-line politics.
Almost as if Project 2025 is a global goal with global roots to groups like the IDU and Heritage foundation 😉
A lot of people are connecting dots right now, Josee.
Whatever side people land on, Canadians are paying much closer attention to influence and ideology than they used to.
Don't forget Russia in that little list.

Appreciate that, Brian.
I think a lot of Canadians are looking for clear plans and steady leadership right now...
and asking tougher questions than before.
Yes, an orange puppet to Putin, trying to help PP gather some steam to help annex Canada to the piglet line!!! Grrrrr
Either an idiot or operative. Probably both.
I truly wish that Poilievre and rest of the right wingers would just shut up. They are exhausting. Misleading. Liars.
A lot of Canadians are feeling worn down by the noise right now, Mary.
I think people are hungry for steady leadership and real solutions.

A lot of Canadians share concerns about influence behind the scenes right now, Patricia.
Whatever our politics, Canada has to stay Canada-first.
Yes!!!! Canada Strong!!!!!!!
OMG Fred! Absolutely! And you would have trouble convincing me that Poilievre is there or indeed, ever has been - or ever would be. Thanks much!!
Appreciate that Patricia…
I think Canadians are asking a pretty simple question right now…
Who’s actually talking about building the country instead of just fighting about it?
Agree! I just hope they keep asking - about that and everything.
Preston Manning mentored PP and Harper. Danielle Smith also has ties to him. The once and future leader of reform.
Preston Manning’s influence on conservative politics in Canada definitely runs deep, Kalyrn.
His fingerprints have been on a lot of political thinking for a long time.

😄 I hear the frustration, Patsy.
I think a lot of Canadians are exhausted by the political noise right now and just want serious leadership.

Interesting take, Rob.
Canadian politics can change fast... but I think most people are focused on who can actually deliver results for the country right now.
I agree. That is why we put Carney in place. But once CUSMA is (agonizingly) redone, many people might return to the idea of the Conservatives being elected. When that happens I have my doubts that Poilievre will help the Conservatives get votes.
Their agenda is to destabilize …
Ignore everything PP head says.
He is a douche
Well, since everyone else in the comments has already dealt with all the influence stuff, I just have one question? When is someone going to shove a gd gag in his mouth, for pity's sake?
😄 I hear the frustration, Karen.
Canadians seem pretty hungry for less theatre and more substance right now.
Oh, also:
See the comments. We are all very aware of how this appears to have an awful lot of similarities with certain other countries. You …individuals… aren't fooling anyone. We see you. We are watching. Not here. Fuck no!
Canadians are definitely paying closer attention these days, Karen.
We will trade Trump for Carney Tariff Free!
😄 Now that’s a trade negotiation headline.
