  1. They’re also lying about them. His 15,000 people claimed in the crowd was more like 1,700 or so. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/liberal-conservative-crowd-size-investigation-1.7507222 😂
  2. Good policies, but only a start. Thanks for bringing these up.
  3. Seems like a decent bloke.
  4. I’d vote for the Canadian Future Party if they ran in my riding and had a decent candidate. PROTECT CANADA’S INDEPENDENCE The Liberals and Conservatives say we can wait until 2030 to invest 2% of our GDP in defence. With a world on fire and our independence under threat the Canadian Future Party invest 5% of our GDP on defence by 2030 - so our independence is secure, always. MAKE DEMOCRACY DELIVER The Canadian Future Party knows government is just Canadians working together. We believe in universal healthcare, early childhood education, and infrastructure that works. Government can’t and shouldn’t do everything, but what it does, it must do well. DEMOCRATIC REFORM The Canadian Future Party will give Members of Parliament the freedom to speak their minds on every bill that goes before Parliament and we’ll introduce proportional representation for some of the seats in the House of Commons, making your vote count in Ottawa with a mixed member proportional system.
  5. PP declined his pension?
  6. Where did I say I was voting for the Libs? 😂
  7. If you think Carney works for Satan, why do you care what he says his policies are? That’s part of it. Poilievre has a past record in government. It’s an awful one.
  8. The latest polls haven’t budged…. Libs still most likely to form government. What can PP do to increase his chances? Bragging about crowd sizes doesn’t seem to be a winning formula. Is that giving Cons, and their supporters, a false sense?
  9. If everyone else is stupid and an a-hole, it’s likely you who is the issue.
  10. Can you give an example of this happening?
  11. And yet, voters seem set to give them another chance under a new leader. Does that tell you anything about the CPC and/or Poilievre?
  12. That argument just doesn’t fly with normal Canadians. They don’t want a retrospective on who to blame; they want a plan for a leader who is best able to steer us through the USA turmoil. A career politician with no work experience and with no legislative record other than voting against everything, or the head of multiple national banks.
  13. A couple more Conservative candidates were turfed. One said his opponent t was “playing the victim card” as a survivor of the massacre at École Polytechnique. https://www.ctvnews.ca/federal-election-2025/article/tories-drop-quebec-candidate-who-said-massacre-survivor-was-playing-victim-game/ Another for implying Indians should be deported to be killed (?) by the Indian government. Yeah, it’s a weird premise. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/conservative-party-candidate-dropped-etobicoke-north-1.7500698
  14. The funny part is she’s hurting Poilievre’s chances of being elected. He doesn’t need more fringe votes from separatists. He needs votes from normal Canadians outside of the Prairies. The Conservative brand being angry separatist if they don’t get their way won’t help him. Manning forced Poilievre to imply that a Liberal 4th term isn’t the end of the world! He had to defend Carney winning! But he couldn’t say anything that even implied he is pro-secession; that would have sealed the Cons’ electoral fate. https://ca.news.yahoo.com/poilievre-disagrees-ex-reform-boss-171850864.html Manning wrote: “Voters, particularly in central and Atlantic Canada, need to recognize that a vote for the Carney Liberals is a vote for Western secession — a vote for the breakup of Canada as we know it.” While campaigning at a manufacturing plant in Kingston, Poilievre was asked whether he agrees with Manning’s statement. “No, we need to unite the country,” he told reporters. “We need to bring all Canadians together in a spirit of common ground.
  15. Then why would I care what he has to say? How do I know he’s not just a partisan hack talking out his ass?
  16. Didn’t they vote for a premier who is of that mind? How could they be as fringe as you claim when Albertans elected a premier with these exact views?
  17. Poilievre’s own party is forcing him to turn his back on his Alberta base with the secession talk. It’s Conservative vs Conservative! Imagine having to fight with other leaders in your party over whether secession is a good idea! Poor Poilievre! https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7502543 Smith's exuberance over the tariff announcement did not sit well with two members of former prime minister Harper's cabinet, who pointed out that Quebec and Ontario are still facing 25 per cent tariffs on steel and aluminum, and automotive exports to the U.S. "With respect, Premier, this is not a good day for Canada or the world," James Moore said in a social media post. "When Alberta is economically attacked, it is bad for Canada. "Thousands of Canadians in the auto, steel, aluminum and other industries may be losing their jobs. This is not a 'BIG WIN.' Canadians stand together." Describing the tariffs on auto imports as a "devastating blow to hundreds of thousands of good, honest, hard-working Canadians," Jason Kenney, also a former Alberta premier, told Ontarians in a social media post that "the vast majority of Albertans stand proudly with you, and have your back." Kenney even went on to challenge Smith's position on energy, saying that "everything should be on the table" response-wise in order to "defend all industries and jobs" from U.S. trade action
  18. What is this person’s expertise? Statistics? Polling?
  19. The folks who buy and sell houses frequently are going to profit significantly from the Conservative tax break plan. At least the Libs are targeting 1st time home buyers. Although the GST break will have negligible effect.
  20. I didn’t say anything about “all of them already own 12 homes”. But those people will benefit from PP’s plan. So you think people who own several homes should get a GST break on another one?
  21. Why should someone who owns 12 homes and makes money from them get a tax break?
  22. Not a good look for the Conservatives or PP. The base won’t care, or will applaud this, but normal Canadians won’t support this position. Any predictions on whether PP pulls this guy’s nomination? I think he will. https://www.ctvnews.ca/federal-election-2025/article/conservatives-stick-by-candidate-accused-of-denying-history-of-residential-schools/ In videos posted on social media, Aaron Gunn — the Conservative candidate in North Island-Powell River in British Columbia — has said Canada’s program of residential schools did not constitute an act of genocide and that the schools are “much-maligned.” “The comments are reprehensible, especially to residential school survivors,” said Terry Teegee, regional chief of the British Columbia Assembly of First Nations.
  23. Complain to Ford. Not federal jurisdiction.
