https://nationalpost.com/news/politics/why-poilievre-is-distancing-himself-corporate-canada The Conservative leader is ditching the traditional business luncheon circuits in Ottawa, Toronto or Montreal to speak directly to voters Traditionally, the Conservative Party of Canada, seen as the party closest to business groups, would meet with big banks and various chambers of commerce to get their message through to Canadians, said Dimitri Soudas, who was the director of communications to former prime minister Stephen Harper. Not anymore. Poilievre has been bypassing those events and instead speaking directly to blue-collar workers and union locals to get his message through. “We never did that (before),” said Soudas. On Friday, Poilievre told a full room of CEOs and lobbyists at the Greater Vancouver Board of Trade that he would be doing them no favours if he is elected prime minister and said that they would have to convince not just him, but Canadians, if they want to see policy changes implemented. He also slammed “utterly useless” corporate lobbyists in Ottawa, which he claimed are more interested in dining with cabinet ministers than working for people on the ground, and told corporate leaders to “stop sucking up” to the Liberal government, which he said is “doing the damage to our country.”2 points

The truth is it's usually the liberal party who's been the biggest friend to big buisness, but the conservative party (PC's anyway) have always been in there too. PP has very successfully rebranded the CPC as a "party of the people" as corny as the term is. That's why he's stealing ndp votes and union votes as well as PPC voters and those on the right. Trudeau was able to harness his 'star power' and stagemanship effectively but he's only a decent campaigner. And when his socks stopped wowing people he slipped badly in the polls and has done poorly since Harper was just horrible in campains. But he got results - and that kept him getting stronger gov'ts. PP However - This guy is probably one of the best campaigners that Canada has seen - the first Trudeau is the only one i can think of that comes close and even he never swept the country (of course he didn't need to). He is winning in EVERY demographic and in EVERY part of the country other than quebec where amazingly he's in a tight three way race. And i suspect he's actually going to be an effective leader and will actually also get results. Put those two together and this guy could be in power for a while2 points

It’s truly frightening what the Trudeau regime pushes to legislate. Bill C-63 is the end of free speech. Bill 376 is the end of freedom of religion. Any view that someone dislikes can be viewed by some as hateful. Really we need to get away from the idea of banning “hate speech”. Speech isn’t violence. Threatening violence isn’t okay and there are already laws to prevent that. There are laws to protect children from online harm and revenge porn, but they must be enforced. There are ways to prevent people from being targeted by verbal insults that don’t require speech bans, jail terms, and fines. Employers and institutions have codes of conduct. Parents can prevent young kids from having cell phones or going online unsupervised. So can schools.2 points

Canada is creeping toward becoming a Communist state. "The Liberal government’s proposed Bill C-63, the online harms act, is terrible law that will unduly impose restrictions on Canadians’ sacred Charter right to freedom of expression." I chaired the Human Rights Tribunal. It has no business policing 'hate speech' (msn.com)2 points

How many MILLION illegal aliens are in America today? Most of us want those animals deported. But I'm willing to compromise. 1. Legalize ALL of them. Amnesty, but 2. They have the same status as convicted felons (since they ARE criminals.) They do NOT have the right to vote, in county, state or federal elections. (There is NO constitutional right to vote for an illegal alien.) 3. If any of those animals want to be able to vote, they must leave the country and get in line with the LEGAL IMMIGRANTS who are waiting to LEGALLY come to this country. Okay, goose steppers. Tell us why you would oppose this.1 point

https://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/can-driving-electric-vehicle-save-money-ubc-researchers-crunched-numbers Here's how much — and how long — you'd have to drive to make an electric vehicle worth the money, according to UBC researchers The farther you drive and the longer you own your car are key to determining if an electric vehicle will save you money compared with a gas vehicle, according to a new study by researchers at the University of B.C. British Columbians must drive an average of 64 kilometres a day for seven years to make the costs associated with an EV break even with the costs associated with the same model gas car, said Bassam Javed, a sessional instructor and PhD candidate at UBC. While the “break-even” point between EVs and gas cars is 64 km a day in B.C., the numbers vary widely between provinces. In Nunavut, where electricity rates are higher, you would have to drive 181 km each day for an EV to be the cheaper choice. In Ontario, it’s 88 km. Given that B.C. drivers travel an average of about 34 kilometres a day, according to Statistics Canada, the study found an EV costs about $8,000 more than the same gas car over the average seven-year lifespan of the vehicle.1 point

https://www.newsnationnow.com/us-news/southeast/judge-drops-some-charges-trump-georgia-election-interference-case/ The six charges dropped include two related to the phone call Trump made to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. In the call, Trump told Raffesnsperger: “All I want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have.” McAfee explained his decision to dismiss the charges by saying “the lack of detail concerning an essential legal element is, in the undersigned’s opinion, fatal.”1 point

The problem is that a lot of people want this. They think it's great to be able to silence people who have "bad" thoughts. Polling indicates that there's strong levels of support. So what the next gov't REALLY needs to do is abuse the law horribly. Anyone who disparages or discriminates against someone because they're conservative pays a 20,000 dollar fine or does jail time for each person they offend. Saying parents don't have rights is a hate crime and is genocide. Anyone calling someone a chud shall be hunted and shot on sight When people on teh left realize that anything they use against others will eventually be used against them - then they'll realize how important it is to respect EVERYONE"S rights.1 point

I asked USAMan (former cop) on the SD site why Chauvin thought he could get away with killing Floyd ON TAPE, and he didn't know. I think it's obvious that Chauvin believed he had the backing of his Union and that was strong enough to protect him. It is clear evidence of a culture of CORRUPTION in the MPD. At least USA admitted there is a blue wall of silence.1 point

Increasingly it seems that our society would be leaps and bounds ahead if our Feds stopped governing and drafting new legislation several years ago. All of these bills are so obviously bad that it would be better to have stopped passing bills altogether than to attempt even to modify these bills. Our next government needs to drop the activism and get the basics right.1 point

Sounds good. Lets hope he does some serious damage to a government's capacity for being sucked up to. All he'd have to do is tweak the Lobbying Act. He could easily do this within a month. In fact there's nothing stopping him from proposing that in-camera lobbying be outlawed at any time. Force the Liberals to say no and defend the secrecy they and their corporate sponsors/buddies presently enjoy. If he doesn't then I'll be leaning towards concluding its a sham as well.1 point

1. I don't have to look at every single thing. I can comment on the Meta level as in "why is this source part of the dialogue". It's not my issue if you don't understand the importance of the public sphere. 2. You can refer to me directly, I'm right here. Yes, I'm Christian and your refusal to accept that says a lot more than my willing to watch an offshore video that drums up fake outrage about a foreign country. We already had a ruling here from HRC that admonished/sanctioned someone from quoting Levicitus (and Leviticus only) in flyers so banning the bible is nothing new... But this fat American guy in a video is worried so let's post that here and wring our hands in anxiety everyone...1 point

PP is trying to appeal to the regular voters. It's a smart play. Of course, I don't believe him, because I'm not naive if this is for real then it will take years of similar behavior to build trust because tigers don't typically change their stripes. But I'm confident it's all a sham.1 point

This is a prime and complete illustration how it works: first, they turn off their brain, not the automatic functions maybe like feeding and breathing, but the thinking part. Eyes too. Then in the place of a thought (with alive, real people) they stick a coined phase, empty words a placebo with zero meaning. "Negotiate" with a psycho. "Ceasefire" with a hitler. No thought, nor checks with reality is possible. Just keep shoveling it and hope that a million of sh*tloads of zero meaning could add to anything. Will it, could it? Of course not. A second-grader already knows.1 point

Per video evidence and Chauvin's own admission, he broke protocol by maintaining that severe restraint long after Floyd was subdued, after he stopped resisting, after he stopped moving, after he stopped responding, after he stopped breathing, after he stopped living. Long after. What Chauvin did is directly contradictory to the guidance in that manual you showed, to the in-person training he was given, and to the department's use of force policies. And Chauvin has admitted it. Most people are "smart" enough not to casually kill a man in front of an audience. And most people are smart enough not to defend such actions. You and Chauvin are outliers.1 point

You ever realize Dems didn't care about anything Putin did prior to the 2016 election? Once they thought Putin slighted the holy Hilary Clinton by getting Trump elected the gloves came off and they decided to do what they do with every obstacle they face, throw tax money at the problem in the hopes Ukraine will fight Putin off. Come on they would never enlist and fight them on their own, they will just write checks with other peoples money to handle it.1 point

Of course it depends on your point of view. The French Revolution, like most wars, was a tragedy. The issues were already underway to reform the political system to create a constitutional Monarchy. You under estimate Napoleon's contribution to society. He modernized the delivery of healthcare, science and brought in the metric system. Immigration is a Christian act. There are millions of people who are living in regions of the world that are no longer habitable. The are leaving a life surrounded by poverty, chaos and violence. They have to go somewhere, and Europe is the logical destination. Would Jesus turn away anyone in need? The mass migration from the south is only going to increase into a tsunami of humanity. MAiD is a choice that each of us should be able to make. It is a matter of freedom of choice. To take that freedom away is socialism. The issue of women's right to reproductive choice has been argued to death. The issue of sending western troops into Ukraine may be a signal to the tyrant Putin that his actions are going to lead to War. In the absence of American support, it is now up to Europe to ensure Ukraine's freedom and independence.1 point

There is no real climate crisis. Just a created climate crisis where many scumbags are already raking in millions of dollars from their lies and bullshit. If there were a real climate crisis then why do the globalists keep flying their private jets around the world? I read that one private jet emits as much emissions as 200,000 vehicles do at the same time. When the globalists fly to their Davos WEF globalist meetings, thousands of private jets fly to Davos. Many of them own ICE like vehicles and own many homes around the world. All emitting carbon into the atmosphere. But ask them if they give a chit? The carbon tax is just another tax grab from we the sheeple and nothing more. These globalist socialist liberals and NDP losers will be bankrupting us all if we do not get rid of them in the next election. We cannot afford to live with those globalist liars, cheats and thieves anymore. But we still have another year and a half to go with those buffoons. Will we survive as a cpountry that much longer? Good guess. ☹️1 point
