I hear conservatives saying things like PP will get Canada back on track. Canada's been back on track since the Liberals ousted Harper. It's not all about lower taxes people. It's about making a country and a world that is inclusive, safe and healthy for everyone.
I go by this house almost every day. They are a middle class family with kids & a dog. How did we allow this kind of crass politics and low brow political "discussion" to get normalized in society. They're teaching their children to be the same.
The answer, Trump & Poilievre.
This isn't normal. Bexte is not a journalist. Our Prime Minister is on vacation. Taking a seaplane to get to him? Poilievre has normalized criminal harassment of the leader of Canada. This has to be stopped.
A lot of people have been convinced by 2 years of conservative lies, disinformation & propaganda that Canada has never had it so bad, when in reality we are among a handful of countries that have weathered the storms of the last 5 years & are on solid footing to do really well.
Justin Trudeau is on his way to transitioning Canada to a green energy future. Pierre Poilievre wants to tear it all down and bring us back to the 1800's. The choice is clear. A visionary and effective leader or a petulant, petty, slogan slinging manchild?
PP goes on and on about "After 9 years of Trudeau," blah, blah, blah. Well, what about, after 20 years of Poilievre? He's had 7 straight terms of office & he's accomplished absolutely nothing. Except, he's managed to be charged with election law violation. Time for him to go.
I sent this text to a friend who is supporting Poilievre and Trump. I'm posting it because I think it captures the essence of what's at stake here, both for Canada and the United States. You will have to open the text to expand the full message.
Trudeau hasn't conspired with developers to defraud Canadians. He hasn't tried to close cultural institutions and lied about it. He hasn't sold assets to foreign companies. He hasn't tried to destroy healthcare, education, LTC or daycare. Ford has. But crickets from the media.
Canada and our Prime Minister are most respected above all in the entire world. Conservatives want to break this country. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Can anyone tell me how this guy is any different from Trump? He's trying to intimidate the media again. He's lying about the media again. He keeps attacking our free press. There's a name for that. It's called fascism. The 1st thing they do is destroy media and all criticism.
This absolute twat has been campaigning & lying non stop for two years. He campaigned outside the church at Brian Mulroney's funeral, and here he is, an absolute dolt doing the same thing on Canada Day. He has no grace, no respect & he's completely uncouth & unfit for office.
Prime Minister Trudeau will not resign. He will fight the next election. The stakes are too high, and he knows it. He is the only one who can defeat Poilievre & the false populism he represents. Poilievre is a clear & present danger to Canada. PMJT is the man for the job.
Poilievre wants to bring austerity to Canada. He wants to plunge Canada into recesion & ruin us with the same policies the British conervatives used to wreck the U.K.. He wants to bring back the dark decade we had with Stephen Harper. Don't let him.
Stephen Harper is followed on X by Putin. One of only 22 people. Harper advises Poilievre. Poilievre has been helped by Russian disinformation. You do the math.
Mike Harris closed the Toronto planetarium and Doug Ford has closed the Ontario Science Centre. Conservatives don't care about science or culture. When are we going to learn?
Trudeau attends Pride events & all manner of cultural & religious celebrations. Poilievre does not. He has not attended a Pride event & he never will. He won't go to events that will upset his core base. Trudeau is there for all of us. Poilievre wants to lead for his people only.
It's time for Trudeau to do the same with Poilievre. Call out Poilievre's lies and hate and division and disinformation every time and every day and every speech and every appearance. It's time to throw it back into the face of the King of Lies.
Stephen Harper fucked Canadians by playing fast and loose with climate change by suppressing & destroying scientific evidence. Poilievre will do the same. Don't let him have the chance.
Well, I suppose that now is as good a time as any to remind Canadians that Harper and Pierre Poilievre conservatives when in office ORDERED scientists not to disclose the real extent of polar melting and effects of climate change (research that was funded by taxpayers.)

"...calls for...Trudeau to step down have come largely from Conservatives because they’re scared. They know that Pierre Poilievre rubs too many people the wrong way, he’s likely peaked too early, his empty catchphrases can only resonate for so long..."
By not getting his security clearance, Pierre Poilievre is helping with foreign interference. He has falsely bashed Canadian democracy (as confirmed by Elizabeth May, who has clearance), creating chaos & distrust within our institutions. This is exactly what foreign actors want.
Poilievre's right hand, the CPC strategist guru, wearing a MAGA hat. Poilievre and the CPC are MAGA. Full stop. Period. End of discussion. Do we want Project 2025 in Canada?
Pierre Poilievre is a climate denier who wants to keep destroying the environment. With our world now literally burning, we can't afford deniers like him anymore. Poilievre is not worth the cost. Not for your children or your grandchildren.
Canada needs a lucid, intelligent, charismatic & wise PM. Pierre Poilievre is none of these things. He's a wet sock who can't properly string together 2 sentences. He's also incapable of any sort of critical thought if it doesn't fit onto a bumper sticker and rhyme.
Harper sold the CWB to Saudia Arabia for cheap & sold Cdn assets like London House for nada (Our PM had to stay in a hotel for the Queen's funeral). Mike Harris sold the 407 to a foreign company for less than it cost. PP is the same. Con gov'ts aren't worth the cost. Or the risk.
Just watched a clip where Poilievre claims people will pay a 66% tax. The guy never tells the truth. If his lips are moving, he's lying. It's called an inclusion rate. You pay the marginal tax rate on 66% of profit above $250K.
Pierre Poilievre is a bad politician. He is a bad man. He is not in it for the people of Canada. He has an evil ideological bent. Vote, so he doesn't get in.
If Justin Trudeau singlehandedly solved climate change, cured cancer and was able to supply every Canadian with an extra 100K without increasing the deficit and also ensured fully funded Healthcare with full provincial funding,
@CBCNews
would still ask when he was stepping down.
THIS IS PRETTY HUGE: watch the head of NATO praise Canada today for increasing military spending and inadvertently slamming the Conservatives for having military spending at the “low level” amongst peer countries in 2014 (Poilievre/Harper Con govt). Again, Trudeau getting praise.
Trudeau needs to stay and I'm glad to hear he is. He would do Canada and Canadians a disservice if he stepped down. As his father was the one who needed to fight Levesque and Quebec seperation, so is Justin the one to defeat Poilievre and the threat of conservative populism.
PM
@JustinTrudeau
vows to continue ‘fighting’ for Canadians!!
"Because what I owe Canadians, and mostly what I owe my kids in fighting every day for a better future, means I am here to stand with Canadians & fight for them every day."
Is the weight and hatred you carry consuming you? Don't worry. Take a deep breath. Relax and vote Liberal. Everything will start to feel better, and you will suddenly start caring about your fellow Canadian.
Poilievre wants you to have freedom. Freedom from vaccines & masks. Freedom from dental & public healthcare. Freedom from science & education & experts. Freedom from social programs when you need them most. Freedom from a livable climate & breathable air. Freedom from the truth.
So, Poilievre has attacked & tried to tear down the media, Parliament, the Supreme Court, the independence of professional regulatory governing bodies, the climate, banks & our social infrastructure. Canadians need to be aware Pierre Poilievre's REAL strategy is to impose...🧵👇
This is amazing and well done. A concise explanation of Pierre Poilievre in under 2 minutes. I don't know how any Canadian can support Poilievre if they know the facts. If they know what he plans to do. Unless you make millions of dollars a year, why would you vote for this guy?
I spoke to some cons who are boycotting the olympics due to trans gendered people in the opening ceremonies. I think this is what's going on with Poilievre. His base is big mad so he's shut up. It's obvious he would be a PM for his base only. We're being warned in real time.
Forty percent of people polled do not know who Pierre Poilievre is. They don't know policy. They just know they hate Trudeau, but they don't know why. These people have been manipulated by hate and fear from the Poilievre camp as well as bots & trolls from Russia and India. Nice.
In a sign that those who are taking polls right now don't know what they are talking about. 40% of
@abacusdataca
poll respondents didn't know who Pierre Poilievre was when shown a picture of him.
I haven't watched
@CBCNews
or
@PnPCBC
for a week and a half now. I was fed up with the "Trudeau is bad," "Will he step down," daily telethon. Is it safe to go back or should I just continue my boycott? Are they being reasonable or newsworthy yet?
Aside from 40 CPC MP's all fully endorsed by anti-abortion groups here, what do you see?
A sea of white men with only one POC & 8 women. 32 white males. 80% white, heterosexual males. The numbers are similar party wide.
What does that tell you about the CPC & their base?
Can anyone imagine in their absolute wildest imaginations, Pierre Poilievre being able to relate with, connect to or being able to have a real conversation with another Canadian? Trudeau gets it. He gets us. He has more Canadian in his little pinky than Pierre will ever have.
When Andrew Coyne blasts the premiers for their utter nonsense on carbon pricing and dealing with climate change. Sometimes, a picture really is worth a thousand words.
If you're a progressive voter who has advocated for Trudeau to step down or you stayed home and didn't vote in the last couple of by elections, all you've demonstrated is that you are a conservative mark and extremely susceptible to Poilievre propaganda, misinformation and polls.
@maxfawcett
It's a shame that the average Canadian with a $1M trust fund just can't get ahead anymore. Talk about being tone deaf lol. Joe, no one cares. What you have is called a very good problem. A 1% problem.
Trump advisor Steve Bannon advocates to "flood the field with shit" to win. Poilievre is being advised to do the same, perhaps even by Bannon himself. Poilieve is also flooding the field with shit. He does it every time he talks every day, and he's been doing it for 2 years now.
I am so proud to have a man like Justin Trudeau as our Prime Minister. There is no one like him who can represent us as well as he can, from any party.
Right now, in Alberta, Danielle Smith is letting patients die to save money. She is allowing Canadians to die to SAVE MONEY. She is showing us what will happen all across Canada with a Poilievre government. The warning signs are everywhere.
Cancer patients are dying in agony in Alberta hospitals right now by design. The UCP set up the conditions that are delaying diagnosis, denying access to oncologists, and refusing even palliative treatment. To save money. They are letting Albertans die TO SAVE MONEY.
This is unconscionable. ER's are closed and closing. He's starving the healthcare system of cash. He deliberately bl9cking funding for $10/day daycare bc he wants it to fail. But he's spending $600M to break a contract when he can just wait 16 more months. Why? WTAF?
#ONpoli
“Why would I ask the convenience stores to pay the $600M to have the right to sell booze? It’s my job to give away taxpayer money to my buddies.”
Pierre Poilievre is a snake oil salesman. He sells fear. And hate. And lies. He guarantees the more you buy, the more you're going to want. Once you start drinking what he's selling you, you will never be able to quench your thirst. He's counting on that.
Have U noticed Poilievre has almost completely dropped his ravings about inflation & interest rates as they come down? There is still the odd crazy false post, but mostly gone. He's now making things up about crime & drugs, trying to scream about chaos. He's losing the narrative.
Pierre Poilievre is not that bright. Either that or he is completely disingenuous. How else to account for his refusal to believe facts, the constant lies & disinformation, the refusal to listen to experts & the attacks he makes on doctors & scientists who speak the truth?
Donald Trump has been trying to tear down his country since his 2016 election run. He rips it apart verbally and in print every chance he gets. Pierre Poilievre does exactly the same thing to Canada. The CPC is the GOP. Pierre Poilievre is Donald Trump.
Let's get one thing very clear. The next election is not about Trudeau vs. Poilievre. It's about saving Canada from Poilievre. It's about going forward, not backward. It's about progression, not regression. Trudeau is a decent leader & a decent man. Poilievre is neither of those.
@ImSpeaking13
The absolutely stunned look on the male lion's face is priceless. No matter the species, hell hath no fury like a female angry with the male lol.
Let me get this straight. Poilievre wants to be Prime Minister. He doesn't want to get his security clearance. He doesn't want to know the truth. By remaining ignorant, he can lie, rage farm & spread disinformation. How serious is this guy, really?
Conservatives are the only people in Canada wishing & hoping for a recession. On line, they claim we're already in one even though economists everywhere agree we've had a soft landing & we have positive growth. Conservatives are a cult and their leader is Pierre Poilievre. Weird.
For everyone and anyone who doesn't believe we will lose a huge chunk of government programs and our social safety net and social programs if Pierre Poilievre becomes Prime Minister. It's here. Just watch the video clip. 34 seconds and you know. There is no doubt.
Imagine: There is a global pandemic, you lost your job, you don't know how you are going to pay your bills or feed your children. You look to the govt for help and this is what you hear from PM

@CPC_HQ
So, which one wants to be PM? The disheveled looking one who is high and trashed on the left or the one blasted out of his mind stepping out of the drug den on the right? How about neither. This guy is not prime minister material.
Here Poilievre speaks words about loving a Canada just like this one — that turns out to be Serbia, Slovenia, German lumber, Russian jets, Ukrainian university, English grandparents, American pickups, and, you guessed it, American guns.
Trudeau was at the unveiling of a Canadian clean climate breakthrough that will break up CO2 as it produces energy, solving the climate crisis. A
@CBCNews
reporter asked if the Prime Minister was planning on stepping down.
Look at this life expectancy graph. Canada started to outperform the United States right when we transitioned to socialized medical care. That's right, socialized care. The same public system Con premiers like Ford & Smith are trying to privatize. They care about $$, not lives.
"Our country is projected to have the fastest growing economy in the G7 in 2025. Canada is not the broken country the Conservatives want you to think it is."
Those who say that comparing Pierre Poilievre to Donald Trump is ‘fear mongering’, need to listen to this. This is full-on MAGA nonsense, and we saw what that did to America. The thought of this man becoming Prime Minister of Canada terrifies me.
I have a question. If Cnds are doing so poorly & suffering so much economic pain, how is it that Poilievre is raking in records amount of fundraising from the people that are so bad off economically & thus angry with the Trudeau government? Inquiring minds want to know.
A vote for Pierre Poilievre is the most un-Canadian thing you could do. He is a nasty little man with no love or pride for our country. He hates Canada. Who else would go to such great lengths to try and convince us how broken our country is? He is no patriot.
