Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, responding to Alberta’s proposed rules for transgender youth, says the federal government needs to ‘butt out’ of provincial health care and education.

    Maybe should PP should ‘butt out’ of the conversation between doctors, parents, and minors who need puberty blockers.

    I know that hypocrisy is ‘on brand’ for the far-right, but fuck, it’s annoying.

    “Pierre Poilievre supports plan to kill trans youths.”

    That’s it. Smith’s plan will kill people, and Poilievre supports it.

    This guy’s “plan” for fixing housing is cutting funding to cities if they don’t fix it. Seems like Pierre isn’t particularly interested in staying in his lane, either. Which is totally reasonable, the federal government should care about housing. Just like it should care about the rights of its citizens.

    Everyone should notice the deeper implications here, Pierre will not stop the provinces from interfering in private medical decisions.

    What right do Canadian women hold currently that could be put at risk by this kind of weak federal attitude? What right have Conservatives worked to deny women in the past, and is currently the target of active pressure groups?

    Abortion, of course, the answer is abortion.
