I feel like these are rather tame choices to be honest, though I can’t recall anything specific. I just remember hearing him speak in the House years ago under Harper and thinking: “What an odious little man”.
Rather than sifting through controversial news headlines, they’d do well to sift through video archives of house debates. I seem to remember racist dog whistles and some pretty terrible things said during the Conservative push for voting “reform” and that Muslim snitch line.
A literal career politician who says he speaks for the working man. Hahahaha
In late March, Poilievre had suggested during a campaign event that digital currencies could help Canadians “opt out of inflation” because they are not influenced by central banks.
That’s arguably one of his worst comments because he was finance critic under Harper, the master of economics.
Imagine if anyone took his advice then, they’d be broke.
He’s running on empty promises to fix “everything” but never explains how and the main plank in his platform is, “I’m not Justin Trudeau”. We can do better. Way better.
“Where the hell is the NDP?”
Dead. They are stuck trying to NOT upset the Liberals, for what reason I don’t know. If they could start holding the Liberal party’s feet to the fire they could actually do something worthwhile. Right now, they are not doing anything.

Now this is a modern web smear campaign, good work BCLibs.
Yeah, you never see the Cons trying that sort of thing! Disgusting libs using what a politician actually says and does against them - presposterous!
I guess my tone was a bit dubious, but I wasn’t being sarcastic. Good fucking work, I meant it.
The guy is a piece of shit, smear campaigns against him and Rustad are net positive for humankind.
The phrase “smear campaign” has a connotation that the smears are made up or exaggerated. But this is just a list of plain facts about Poilievre.
Pierre Poilievre:

He’s our Trump. Hope our country doesn’t make the same mistake as the states did in 2016
If the polls hold up and the Conservative win people should realize that the LIberal’s could have changed things dramatically by implementing Voting Reform but refused to do so.
Specifically the 155/108 Liberal MP’s getting paid at least 200k at year and their entire job is to lead this country holds a substantially higher burden then the millions of Canadians who barely spends any effort reading a news headline.

They don’t care.
If they lose, they know they’ll be back in, depending on how bad the Conservatives do, on four to eight years, likely with a majority. Both parties are quite amenable to a periodic chair-switch.
However, if they had put through electoral reform, they’d never get another majority again. They’d have to share power with other, likely left-leaning, parties, which they wouldn’t like. It would mean less power, less exclusive access to donations and reciprocation, and the ire of their donor class, who very much don’t want to see a goverment that aligns with Canadians instead of the investor class.
The Liberals would ratther lose every seat in parliament than implement electoral reform.
That one is going to be on the people. I’ve encountered a few die hard Liberals here and they’re as baffling as a Conservative loyalist.
How can someone be a die-hard Liberal? That’s like being a die-hard Wonderbread fan.
If they were the kind of people to get tattoos, they’d read “Milquetoast4Lyfe”
You mean maybe Trudeau will step down?
LOL! He’s too full of himself to do that! He still believes that he can win which is why he didn’t do proportional representation or anything good really.
He’s our Trump.
Lol, hyperbole much?
Populist without a plan, can’t make a more direct comparison
Here’s the party policies:

As for a plan… why the actual fuck would he reveal anything substantial now? The CPC is His Majesty’s Loyal Opposition, it’s their job to oppose. It’s not their job to come up with stuff, that’s for the governing party (the LPC) and, through the confidence and supply agreement, the NDP. Do you understand how the British Westminster system that we use works? Maybe once the election is in full swing the “no plan” argument will be a valid one, but it’s not now.
Sorry, I think you meant to post this link

Trump is smarter and more charismatic and that says something.
Oh damn, this site was put up by the Liberal Party.
Not that I’m against it, but this seems outside their usual messaging. A bit of a peek into how next years election is going to go I guess.
Yeah that’s also what I thought. Politics have already become dirty for the past couple of decades since Harper. But now all sides are playing the game.
It’s disappointing.
But that’s what happens when a whole party gets rock hard everytime they listen to Republicans South of the border.
He was part of the harper government that wanted to raise the retirement age. NEVER FORGET THIS. Also it would be like having trump as PM.
