Obsessed? It’s not a religion. It’s only common sense to have a clean environment. Did you know the last Con government changed laws to allow more environmental destruction? What attack? Is this just hyperbole? I will trust what the scientific experts say about the environment. The tobacco companies used to tell us smoking was good for us. Should we have ignored medical experts about their findings that smoking is bad for your health?

Smart! Good politics. Normal Canadians don’t care about “idea theft”. Why hasn’t PP ever stolen good ideas? He seems to be devoid of them.

“But it was only a joke” Conservative Party joins the Cancel Culture Revolution! A Conservative candidate says he has been removed by the party over past comments he made in a podcast suggesting former prime minister Justin Trudeau should face the death penalty. Mark McKenzie, who was seeking a seat in the Ontario riding of Windsor-Tecumseh-Lakeshore, told Global News in an interview Tuesday that the remarks he says he made while co-hosting a comedy podcast in 2022 were “all a joke” and he regrets making them. https://globalnews.ca/news/11109624/conservative-candidate-removed-trudeau-death-penalty-remark/

Your daily dose of polls: The gap between the Liberals and Conservatives continues to grow as the Liberals gain more support from the NDP and Bloc Québécois. With growing leads in Ontario, Quebec, Atlantic Canada and British Columbia, the Liberals would win a big majority government if an election were held today, with all other parties likely to suffer seat losses. https://newsinteractives.cbc.ca/elections/poll-tracker/canada/ How should PP change course to garner more support? Or should he just rely on hopes and prayers?

3 Cons were removed in one day for things they’ve said or done in the past.

Is there something wrong with stealing good ideas?

Did you miss where I agreed he should’ve been removed? 😂

I’m not sure you understood my point. Of course he should be gone. Someone that dumb shouldn’t be running for any party. I am fully in favour of a person being responsible for what they say. I’m wondering about the hypocrisy of conservatives embracing cancel culture only when it suits them.

Yes, that’s it. Without that, we leave nothing but a mess for future generations to pay to clean up.

You think we could supply enough oil to drive down world prices? If we could, why wouldn’t OPEC turn down the taps to drive the price back up?

You think people should be canceled for telling jokes? Chiang told an offensive joke and is no longer a Liberal candidate. Weren’t conservatives against cancel culture?

Three candidates removed by the Cons in one day! https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7499684 Singh is the third candidate the Tories dropped on Tuesday, following the ouster of Mark McKenzie in southwestern Ontario and Stefan Marquis in Montreal. The Conservatives did not share a reason for why they dropped Singh, merely confirming that he was dropped as a candidate in a one-line email to CBC News.

Trump hates losers. Soldiers who are captured are losers. Politicians behind in polls who might lose an election are losers. Trump likes to be seen backing a winner to stroke his own ego. Hence his “support” for Carney.

My vision is a clean environment.

Two Con candidates turfed by their party in one day. https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/article/conservatives-drop-second-election-candidate-in-one-day/

You’d be extolling the virtues of his business and economic experience and claiming he’s a great Conservative and not a career politician like the other bums. I would still be saying that he’s too conservative for my liking, just like now.

You think energy prices would go down? We don’t have price controls in Canada. We would be paying “world prices” for our energy, just like we do now.

First, the PC party is dead. But here’s the projection for Ontario: 338Canada.com

SaskPower? How are they all screwed up?

Agreed. This is not good policy by Carney, in my opinion. But, I’m not a conservative voter. Environmental issues are probably my biggest concern when I vote.

I heard David Frum on YouTube (Hub Canada channel) talking about that as a strength of Canadian politics, not a weakness. Why not steal popular ideas from the opposition if Canadians want to see those policies implemented?

Not ignored. We just disagree. That’s what elections are for; to see whose vision for the country gets to be implemented. Your favoured vision has been a losing one. My favoured vision has also been a losing one, since I never voted Liberal. Although, I think some of the legislation has been better than what the Conservatives would have passed, overall. Carney is way too conservative for me, but I vote on who I think will best represent my riding. Party politics don’t really matter to me as much as the candidate.

What do you think PP should do to turn the tide and appeal to more of the electorate?

Even the NP admits reality…. What do they say about a broken clock? Pierre Poilievre dismisses calls for 'pivot' as Liberals increase lead in polls https://nationalpost.com/news/politics/federal_election/pierre-poilievre-election-strategy-liberal-polls
