After the collapse of support for Erin O’Toole, and his removal from leadership, Conservative MP Pierre Poilievre announced Saturday he will be running for the Conservative Party’s leadership. WATCH:
Canadian Treepers, what do you think?
Is this guy the one who can make the difference?
CANADA – […] Poilievre, 42, becomes the first candidate seeking to replace Erin O’Toole, who was voted out as leader earlier this week.
Born in Calgary, Poilievre has been MP for the Ottawa riding of Carleton since 2004, and held a number of cabinet positions under then Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
[…] Poilievre gained a number of endorsements minutes after announcing his candidacy on Saturday.
In reply to his tweet, former cabinet minister John Baird got behind his onetime caucus colleague, writing that Poilievre “has the brains and the backbone and will make a great Prime Minister. I am beyond thrilled to endorse him!”
A number of MPs have also started to endorse Poilievre, including Ontario’s Melissa Lantsman, who was elected in the fall.
“No question — Pierre is the answer to a strong & united Conservative Party,” Lantsman said in a tweet.
Alberta MP John Barlow was also quick to back Poilievre.
“He understands the issues facing western Canadians,” Barlow said in a video posted on Twitter. (read more)
My brother and I have been waiting for several years for this man to lead the Conservative party. I cannot repeat here the joyful, expletive laced texts my brother sent me from work in the Alberta oil fields, as the news broke he was running for Conservative leadership. He has the vote of both of our Ontario families.
PP is glorious to watch in action, a dog with a bone…a pit bull. He has a good sense of west and east, not the Laurentian elite attitude. He is smart like Harper, but with a straight forward, hard working, strong convictions Western attitude. He is far more comfortable in front of cameras and more media savvy than Harper was. He is the real deal.
For the first time in my 56 years, I am paying for a membership in a political party to vote for this man as leader of the party. For the first time since 2015, Trudeau’s first win, I am hopeful for my country.
Pay to vote? How does that work?
There will probably be a leadership convention and to vote at the convention, you have to be a party member. Can you imagine if Trudeau supporters could vote for a Conservative leader. They would hijack the process.
Kind of like the problem we have in the USA with open Primary Elections.
“Can you imagine if Trudeau supporters could vote for a Conservative leader.”
Ah, but they can. They just have to pony up the money for a CPC membership and voila! they too get to vote.
Wow. What a system. How sad.
There is a fee to be a member of a political party in Canada and only members can vote for party leaders.
How hoity-toity of them. How much do you have to pay to vote?
It varies. Sometimes $5, I once paid $10 back in the ’80s to join the Reform Party.
Can he get enough votes to win the position?
Will he be offering “olive branches” to Chrysta Freeland? Olive branches to The Destroyers? We need leaders with stones … not surrender instincts
I doubt he’d be offering an olive branch to Freeland, Trudeau, or many Liberals. Might be the odd backbencher that could be worthy of it.
Incidentally, I don’t think Trudeau will be running in the next election. He’s going to punt to Freeland, “for the good of the country”, fall on your sword drama. He’s a trust fund airhead, Trudeau Foundation has received enough donations, he’s got enough “clout” that the lefty/WEF types can pay him to be in some make believe environmental bs position. That way he can jet the world on their dimes, no longer under scrutiny.
Is it possible that Trudeau could be removed yet this yr because of this? I don’t exactly understand the snap elections that we sorely need right now with the senile meat puppet in our White House
He called a snap election last year, spent 610 million in one month, got less seats than he originally had, and formed an even weaker minority govt with the terrorist NDP leader who is really racist, also lost quite a number of seats, they banned together again, and are continuing their pinky and the brain style leadership to take over the world. The NDP leader cares nothing at all, he is East Indian, and all he works on is the virtue signaling portion of the Govt. But he gets his 15 minutes of fame and that’s all he cares about.
Lifetime ‘left’ voter here – originally NDP, then when they clearly lost the plot, onwards to the Greens. But they’re all extremely disingenuous so have sat out the last couple (while learning from MAGA, Sundance, Moonshine, and others). NDP-leader Singh’s tweeted comments about the thrust of the Convoy (amongst others) were absolutely disgusting willful lies and I cannot see myself voting for either left parties again. Poilievre has impressed the few times we’ve seen him speak. First time in living memory these kinds of political alignments have settled for me. Still prefer to cut of Bernier’s jib at present. But Poilievre is definitely more likeable than Harper was or any of the buttermilk idiots in the interim.
Welcome to the ‘right’ side of history. Just out of curiosity, as you have come to learn how manipulative the media and education systems are, I presume that has affected your personal life, at least to some extent. Do you talk with any of your friends about your acquired knowledge? I presume that you have had friends who were also indoctrinated into leftist thinking that you now reject. Have you lost friends because of your awakening? Have you been able to turn some to a clearer understanding of how ‘progressive’ government seeks to control every aspect of their lives and turn some among your friends/acquaintances away from acceptance of such tyranny?
And, you can’t call the NDP leader out on anything without being called “RACIST!!!!”
Not a chance that Trudeau gets turfed like O’Toole did.
Trudeau is not the brains behind the LPC operation, but he is the mascot.
Trudeau is the Maytag Repair man. He doesn’t design the appliances or even decide which appliances Maytag builds, but he does sell the Maytag Brand on TV.
Until the LPC got Trudeau as leader, they lost one election after another. The Liberal base is in Ontario. When Canadians were asked who the Greatest Canadian of the 20th century was Ontario lead the east in voting for Pierre Trudeau, Justin’s father. The Trudeau name is magic in eastern Canada.
We in western Canada, particularly in Alberta where I live, despise the Trudeaus and the LPC.
Do you think that sentiment has changed in the past year or so?
No. Alberta has been suffering terribly since Trudeau got into power in 2015. He immediately declared a moratorium on tanker traffic off the west coast, laying waste to Alberta’s main economic engine.
Meanwhile tanker traffic continues off of the east coast uninterrupted. Tell me, do you remember where that unsinkable ship the Titanic went down? Just off the coast of Newfoundland as I recall.
Destruction of Alberta’s economy is a purely political effort on Trudeau’s part.
Freeland? Oh dear mercy no!!! We saw her in action with Robert Lighthizer. It wasn’t pretty. Godspeed Monsieur Poilievre.
Speaking of the WEF; surely Canadians know this:
https://www.weforum.org/people/chrystia-freeland
Plus her grandfather was a real Ukrainian Banderite Nazi. I believe she still has the apartment in Kiev.
Many people in politics, in Western countries, have grandparents who were true Nazi supporters and many were in various positions of authority or importance in Nazi Germany.
Arnold Schwarzenegger father, Chelsea Handler grandfather, Preston Bush – father of H George and George Jr, and many many more
Yes, both Freeland and Trudeau are former students of WEF’s Young Global Leaders.
Freeland: Klaus Schwab girl through and through -a rare female psychopath.
Not so rare. Who is in charge of New Zealand, Germany, Michigan, US House, US VP? There seems an ample supply.
The NZ and Germany ladies are also Klaus Schwab’s WEF Young Global Leader graduates.
The biggest contributor to the Trudeau Foundation is China, mostly indirectly. The biggest contributor to the Clinton Foundation was the Canadian registered charity, the Clinton Guistra Foundation, where anonymous donations from dirty money was transferred south of the Canadian border to pay for Hillary’s server.
How would this work? I don’t think Trudeau will be in the next election because IMHO, Trudeau has to go now. Armchair quarterbacking here, but I doubt the Truckers would negotiate a deal where he stays.
No more pansies with black face!
Chrystia Freeland = WEF control agent.

Dan Crenshaw used to be listed but I couldn’t find him. Maria Bartaromo is still listed. I wonder if they are starting to hide their tracks.
Dang! Wish we could Ditch Mitch as easily as this happened, seemingly overnight…
I am happy for the Canadian people.
Republicans Senators could do exactly the same thing. But they are not “we”.
Well, I definitely don’t know squat about Canadian political procedure, and about our own, mainly only what I’ve learned at Sundance School.
But it was the virtually overnight part I meant. I’ve always heard that we can replace our head of the Senate and Speaker of the House only at specified election times, so we have to wait and wait and wait.
Canadians did it at will – looked to me like that “vote of no confidence” thing that the UK has? Or is it something that our Senate and House could just stand up and do tomorrow to McConnell and McCarthy – but they don’t feel like bothering?
[This was meant to be a reply/question for Richard.]
This is the main advantage of a Parliamentary system. They can switch leaders of their own Party whenever it seems necessary to them. The main drawback is that, because of the coalitions required to create a majority Governing Party, there is way too much political compromising in the quest for power.
In a world that is yin or yang ( Who should be in charge, Big Government Collectivism or Democracies of Sovereign Free people, is always only answered by two opposing political parties. According to Von Mises, there are only two approaches to control of the means of production, public or private ownership). That is why our parties do policy tap dances to shore up their rank and file supporters before each election, which I see as a systemic strength because this question gets answered each time we directly choose our Executive Branch as yin or yang for the next 4 years only.
I have lived in both the USA and Canada and, while I believe the US system is functionally better, the Canadian system appears to have better remedies to dilute a total domination by a single Party. Hitler took over Germany because the people there had no choices after he gained control of all of the power centers of his country. It took a unification of very disparate nations in an all out war to finally push his party aside. Maybe we will be headed for that in the future, but right now I am encouraged by what I see happening in Canada right now. I am with the truckers and I only hope something similar can work in the USA.
The fellow posting this video strongly supports him.
The little talk to the media he gave the other day, on the video Sundance posted, was pretty much “in your face” to the lying media. He eviscerated them. Very methodical and precise. He’s a lot better than his predecessor
Bernier has been damaged and smeared because of his exit from the Conservative party. It would mean he would have to be accepted back in and mend fences and abandon his fledgling party. It would also be hard in a national campaign to avoid the MSM bringing up all the past issues. He has a lot of good qualities, and would be an asset somewhere high in the cabinet.
Pierre doesn’t have national recognition, but that may be a good thing. No one is perfect, so I
think his positives outweigh the negatives.
Both do have some fire and charisma, which are important going forward.
There are a few other decent options, though mostly less known. A leadership contest should clarify the situation more.
But the critical issue is beating Trudeau. Anyone will be an upgrade. Short term regime changes are more important now. Long term policies can be worked on after gaining power.
Max screwed himself by leaving government documents in his girlfriend’s pad…a girlfriend with biker ties. Much as I like him, I could never vote for him. I know others who feel the same.
As to anyone being an upgrade, I don’t believe that’s true. Freeland would be as much of a disaster as Trudeau, if not worse. On the Conservative side, I think Leslyn Lewis could be good, but she hasn’t had much time in government to be able to deftly handle the politics, and watch out for the landmines. She’s also been labelled religious right. I don’t think she is, but she didn’t have the political chops to get out ahead of that label. I can’t see the middle swing voters voting for her, like they might with PP.
Yes something like that is awful but the policies are most important and even more how the government has various departments enforce those policies.
Agree.
If this is entirely successful, then upon winning a solid majority, Leslyn needs to be put in the highest position within the caucus.
“I could never vote for him. I know others who feel the same.”
cuck
Did any of you guys notice the 1984 book/prop on the bookcase behind him?
Now that I’ve got a fire going and a cup of joe in my belly, yes. Good eyeballs.
Yep, I noticed that.
Another good one, started at a good point going on for around 10 minutes. He’s really worth our support. He may be a “politician” but as far as I can tell so far what that means is that he knows how the beast works. And despises it.
Hmm has to do something about that thumb
Does anyone else thinks he kinda looks like a younger brother of Ron Desantis?
The Uniparty is a profoundly systemic affliction. No human being can prevail within it on his or her own terms (which is to say, our terms). The system has to be utterly destroyed first. Unfortunately ‘reformist-looking’ personalities can only defer this day of reckoning, or burn the clock enough to forestall a reckoning altogether. A Canadian DeSantis will fizzle just as ours will
While I completely agree with you, understand that to “utterly destroy” the Uniparty system will require much sacrifice. The Uniparty will put up one helluva fight–and they have a lot to fight with.
Trump’s experiences in his first term become a first edition textbook for anyone, US governors or Canadian PMs, on establishment (as well as deep state) tricks and tactics. Of course, the enemy of freedom has “five eyes” so they will be learning, too.
Our circumstances are like George Washington fighting the Revolutionary War: fight, survive, learn… fight again but smarter, survive, learn… keep fighting until your enemy makes a mistake or God intervenes in ways you cannot control or anticipate. Just keep being prepared and on the battlefield ready to grasp victory when it comes within reach.
Fun listening.
“We have a government of elites and self-serving snobs who look down on ordinary working class Canadians…”
Good video. Interesting segment.
I live in Canada. This country is run like a carbon copy of the cccp. From teachers to doctors to bureaucrats they’re cold and unbending. Most people will put up with almost anything. I have no faith in any politician in this country. It’s all political theatre from incompetent nincompoops parading as intellectuals.
Trudeau has minority gorvenment but is allowed to rule with the support of even more leftists parties. The ”Bloc Québécois” party from Quebec is also super left.
PP has been an attack dog. He fights. From SNC to the We scandal he’s shown intelligence and a doggedness in putting Liberal grift on full display.
He calls the media out to it’s face which I consider a basic requirement. So he has that going for him.
He looks good but I find it hard to trust any current politician to fight for ordinary Canadians.
It was obvious O’Toole was bad. It’s not obvious PP is bad. I need more research time.
His net worth is 9 million dollars, making him the 8th richest politician in Canada.
Appears to never have a job in the private sector. 🤔
That’s a good thing!
Then no one has to worry that he will or can be bought off!
Much like PDJT!
If he never had a job, where did he get the money?
Follow the money. Is he already bought?
If he’s among the top 10 riches politicians in Canada with only $9 Million, that’s an amazing statistic. I guess the graft must be an order of magnitude less up there than here in the USA.
Oh lordy….Pierre is the Joe Rogan of Canadian politics. A classic Canadian RINO imo. He is Lindsay Graham…..all word salad and no action.
Lindsey takes actions all the time, for the left.
Pierre Poilievre has strong character, a man of the people. I’m sure the Trudeauites will be out in full force trying to destroy him.
“all word salad and no action”
Canada’s Parliamentary system does not allow for the opposition to do anything.
Exactly what Action do you suppose an opposition MP could take since they are powerless?
He has been a very vocal “Johnny come lately” all of a sudden….he has been a politician for a looonnnggg tttiiimmmee.
His name sounds like another brand of vaccine.
He sounds like a real lightweight.
The Mitt Romney of Canada Politics.
Don’t they have anyone from out west to ride in on a bison and kick butt, and act like a real man?
Is that you, Justin? LOL!
PP’s track record.
https://youtube.com/c/PierrePoilievreMP
Much of the real work/fight in Canadian politics happens in Committee. He’s been strong in that respect. Keep in mind that house of common speeches are just eye candy clips for the media.
The next Canadian Prime Minister should be a trucker. They’re the only ones who have stood up to the totalitarians, and they appear to have the best leaders.
The country would be far better run if the entire cabinet were chosen at random from the Edmonton phone book.
More like the Fort Mac phonebook.
The people could do and HAVE done a lot worse. I think most Truckers are pragmatic. They deal in real world problems every day and find a way to get the job done.
They solve problems while politicians create problems. I don’t think most could stand the inertia of politics.
Sounds more like platitudes.
But here’s hoping.
“the one who can make the difference”
No. There is no “one.” This is as bad as putting your faith in Trump. The swamp is still there. Let’s vote harder next time, though.
Like Trump, this guy says all the right things. The question is: unlike Trump, will he DO all the right things?
As President, Donald Trump was overwhelmingly on the mark. That’s why he’s HATED by the globalist left.
Rebel News likes him:
https://www.rebelnews.com/pierre_poilievre_announces_hes_running_for_conservative_leader
“1984 ” is there in plain sight
Save Canada.
Pierre doesn’t stand a chance. O’Toole was installed. Dominion machines are used to count the votes.
Justin, you know not of what you speak.
Ballots are hand-counted in Canadian elections. After the 2020 fiasco, I had the opportunity to see the hand-counting of the votes of the Sept 2020 Federal Election in the Riding I was in. A representative from the Liberal party was also there to witness. It was all above board.
Correction: Sept 20, 2021
I worked in the last election as well. All votes are counted and witnessed by representatives of each party. To vote, you must show approved forms of ID.
Federal election ballots are hand counted.
Leadership race ballots use Dominion machines.
That is true.
if anyone is thinking that this fellow is the answer to conservatism, you better think again. he will ensure that no pro-life laws will be passed, the gay ideology will still permeate our schools, work places and homes, and will support the persecution of parents if they want to help their sexually confused children. wrong person to heap praise on.
Then you better get to work and prove your statement to a lot of Canadians!
Pierre has thrown his hat in the ring and that starts the clock ticking. He’s got a couple of weeks to lay out the skeleton of his case. He chose to do this while the truckers are in Ottawa… bad timing.
The Liberals are out in full force on this board today, working hard to discredit Poilievre. They are frightened.
Abortion is not even a Canadian political issue and hasn’t been since the 1990s.
Let’s hope he’s the ONLY candidate so that we can get on with getting our country back. The Conservative election ballot is so confusing that the wrong person keeps getting in. Please clarify the ballot process so that we get the RIGHT person elected.
Pierre Poilievre is a Godsend to Canadians. He is not afraid to challenge one and all, especially the media. Trudeau will never stick around to run against him.
Max Bernier is the one who put the miles on across the country whipping up protests putting his skin in the game. He was thrown in Jail. He needs to be involved in this part of the revolt. He was the finalist with O’Toole back in the day. He hates our immigration system and hates the UN. I am voting for Max and PPC unless they come up with a coalition or a unity pledge. Conservative party up here has done nothing to curtail spending/immigration/punishing taxation. Go Max Bernier
I agree with what you say. One small correction, Bernier lost to Andrew Scheer not O Toole.
” He was thrown in Jail.”
No he wasn’t. He was arrested, given a case number, and court appearance writ. Bernier didn’t spend a single second in lockup.
But does he know how to Bhangra dance?
16 year Member of Parliament since age 26. Yeah, he’s an outsider looking to change things. Years of real world experience prior to MP, too. Right.
Another Paul Ryan-type budget/deficit conservative?
Time will tell…
Last week CTH had a video posted where this man shifted between French and English while giving answers to media types seeking a different answer to fit the government narrative, outside the doors of Parliament.
I used to speak and read 2 foreign languages fluently (Spanish & German). One does not shift languages and speak as smoothly as he did without having true conviction regarding the message he was delivering. It is not that easy … and if I am wrong God help the Conservatives as this guy would put all the other faux conservatives to shame as the leader.
My vote would be Candace Bergen.
they will use Dominion voting systems AGAIN, like they did to make sure Bernier lost
Who’s the money behind this guy, that will tell you all you need to know.
Where has he been the past 8 days during the protest? What has he said to give the conservatives comfort? Have not see any positive rhetoric from this man posted here. So as we say, suspicious cat, remains, well, suspicious.
There is an International Phenomenon that folks need to realize is taking place thanks to the consolidation of OWNERSHIP of Media Outlets. The “news” and “stories of events” outside their; national, state and city boundaries is SILOED.
Did you read some of the comments above that stated he has been moving across Canada voicing protest and opinion?? As was pointed out correctly by Sundance, a few days ago, there is only so much unsupported members of Government can physically accomplish.
Let’s see how this transpires before making these types of statements.
I have been watching as much video as possible about what’s going on in and amongst the truckers and the patriots supporting them. I saw M. Bernier with a crowd of people around him in Ottawa so I know he was there. Perhaps he’s on the ‘downlow’, gathering info and prepping for an election?
I live in Quebec.
This tweet by Trudeau has caused immense damage to the truckers movement. I could not believe the “unanimously” part of the tweet so I searched the website of the Commons. I was astounded to read that effectively, a resolution condemning the antisemitism, racism etc. displayed in Ottawa was adopted unanimously.
The media and politicians in Quebec have relied on this tweet to condemn the truckers.
Poilievre is described as “not PM material” because he supports the truckers, viewed as racists, antisemites etc.
Poilievre met the truckers in Ottawa. The next day, he voted for the heinous resolution.
I don’t understand. Poilievre has some explaining to do.
There ya go….another Lindsay Graham.
Though I don’t think Turdeau’s tweet caused any problems for the truckers, it caused problems for the conservatives. Pierre needs to explain his actions. I trust he will in due course. Naturally the clock is ticking.
He needs to ask a question.
“If this bill passes will it increase the size, cost, reach and power of government?”
Then if any of those conditions are met VOTE NO because we have too much government now.
The polish and the agreeable words seems to stand out more than the sincerity.
Time for Canada to throw that disgusting Trudeau clan out of office like we need to do with Lying Joe/Disgusting Barry and the rest of their Marxist racists!
Time will tell. I don’t know Canadian politics except that Trudeau is a disaster.
It would worry me that so many corruptocrats are supporting Poilievre, but he may be a good man for Canada at this point in time. If he represents the interests of the people he is an advancement over Trudeau.
In the U.S.,the widespread push back against Trump was the sign of his effectiveness and genuine “outsider” man of the people bonafides.
Right now it seems conservatives in Canada have no voice in their elected officials.
Anyone else noticing how much daily coverage of Pence in all msm the past few weeks? Rather like the support from other politicians that PP is getting in Canada?
Who are we NOT supposed to be seeing?
well said suzig
You can expect ALL candidates to say the “right” things. Unfortunately, the Conservatives in this country have a history of hiding when we need strong leadership. We’ll see.
I am Canadian and have been visiting this site for many years. Quietly sitting on a lower branch and absorbing knowledge and learning from the wisdom of Sundance and all you Treepers. As an eager student I believe I have learned to spot a false messiah as we have seen more than few over the years on this site: Trey Gowdy, Pence, Jeff Sessions and so on. Probably very good men meant to do good things but unfortunately they were weak and were able to be swayed, blackmailed or corrupted.
I see Pierre Poilievre as such a man. I think he senses the winds of change and is taking an opportunity for himself. Good for him and I applaud that savviness. I believe he is a good man with honest intentions….but that is not good enough anymore.
In these times we need someone who does not wait for calm waters or fair skies to do what is right. We need someone who put it out there knowing his/her life is now on the line. For my first choice as a peoples representative I would choose from the Freedom Truckers Convoy. But realistically they are not marketable for our conservative, traditional population. So instead I nominate Peoples Party of Canada leader Maxime Bernier. When he was being handcuffed last year for protesting the mandates, the police officer asked if he was carrying a weapon. Maxine replied ” Only my words”. He is not perfect but he was there for us Canadians and our rights even before it was a photo op.
https://globalnews.ca/video/7943159/maxime-bernier-arrested-in-manitoba-for-violating-public-health-orders
Well said, there is a reason that the truckers love him. He has been fighting for true conservatism for years…that is why the pansies booted him from the RINO conservative party when he ran for leadership.
Sounds good to me!
The commercial is quite good.
I am American so I don’t have skin in this game. But – the Truckers Freedom Convoy, and the crowds of wonderful Canadian patriots supporting them – has made me care a good deal more about my Canadian brothers and sisters.
Whether you hated him or admired him, President Trump laid out clearly what he would do in his first 100 days. One of the major things he did was promise – and actually do – to remove two regulations for every standing regulation. My question, asked in respect and not to challenge but to learn, my question is does or has Mr. Poilievre stated what his agenda will be (itemized) if he were to attain Premiership? Also – how does he stack up against (or along side?) Maxime Bernier?
Thanks for your patience. Let them truckers roll! 10-4!
Now is not the time to distract from the truckers. Pierre could have picked a better time to throw his hat in the ring. Time will tell if Pierre’s timing was off.
pp looks like a solid conservative but the party is filled with way too many liberals. many, like scheer & o’toole, make noises like conservatives but in the u.s. they’d be called rino’s. i’ve been let down for the last time by the ‘conservative’ party. i’ll vote ppc if they have a good candidate. max bernier has been making good calls on policy.
same goes for the ontario conservatives. doug ford is a liberal tyrant. he kicked mpp’s out of the party for opposing his ’emergency powers’. his own daughter has been publicly stating her father is wrong on the vaxxes. we thought we were getting a real conservative & we got another coercive liberal.
you can’t vote liberal or ndp. the only difference between the 2 is that the ndp want to give condoms to kindergarten kids & the libs want to wait until grade 1.
what can you say about an electorate that votes for a guy who’s big achievement in life is substitute drama teacher but has a surname that some worship like ‘kennedy’ in the u.s.? if he had a diff surname, he’d be ridiculed by everyone. he’s an imbecile & i’m not using that word lightly. he’s also a rabid ideologue & so that makes him a dangerous imbecile. canada is in desperate need of a donald trump or a ron desantis.
He will be demonized out of existence by the media and the other parties. He’s already been tagged as ”the rise of Trumpism” in Canada.
Forgive my ignorance: There have been many times, when watching foreign elections where “conservatives” won, (YAY!) only to have people who live there comment, “I don’t think that means what you think it does…”
So to be clear, what does “conservative” mean in Canada?
By the by, just how long is Justy going to be in quarantine?
The conservative in eastern Canada is like the GOP in the New England states… We are watching to see what conservative means in Western Canada.
Poilievre went after ol’Sparkle Socks pretty good here –
