This is good news for Canadians. This useless 1 time paperboy will never ever be PM of our great nation.
Fuck PP and fuck the cons. MAGA dumbfuck twat wannabes.
I sure hope you’re right.
Yeah, i wouldnt be so sure PP is finished.
Voters are dumb as rocks and have short memories… he could roll out a new slogan tomorrow that catches on…
I see the anti PP people crossing the floor or maybe splitting off and creating a new Reform Party and the true PP loyalists will stay there.
Also if this happens I see the Liberals may lose majority as some of the floor crossers will join the new Reform Party. I wish the Reform party was something more than angry PC’s back in the day and wanted actual reform to government, but that would have made them way to left for their party.
That would be interesting. The more decentralized parliament is the better. Heck it would even be good if the liberals could split in two as well. The further away we get from a two party system the better.
Canada’s biggest loser screams into the void in a desperate attempt to maintain relevance.
Pete. I think you mean the opposite. mister trump squandered usa’s leverage with Canada.
Yes, PP would’ve been down there slobbering all over donnies knob by now
IT WAS OUR ONE CHANCE
What a fuking piece of shit
I cannot wait until the public enquiry into the yankee maga money
Can you imagine how shitty he must be in private, for that many MPs to jump ship?
Imagine having to listen to this dumbfuck speak every single day. There’s no mute button IRL 😬
The mute button appears to be “Hello, Mr. Carney…I’ve been thinking…”
😂 very true!
To be fair, Carney has generally tagged along with the US as his gut reaction. Also to be fair, it’s hilarious to even entertain the idea that PP wouldn’t be there sucking Trump off 24/7.
Such weak sauce energy.
Sincerely, fuck off Poilievre.Never shut your mouth ppsmol, so Canadians never forget what a complete and utter moron you actually are.
Who cares what that moron says.
I note that the comments are typically low value insults to Polievre. Unfortunately I had higher hopes of actual intelligent comments on Lemmy but this appears to be same hivemind as reddit and other socials are accused of. Here’s the thing detractors can learn from Poilievre - he often disagrees with Carney (its his actual job right now) but he doesn’t stoop to derogatory name calling and when given the open bait to do so on Joe Rogan, he said “I won’t criticize him on foreign soil” Learn a little statesmanship. Disagree all you want, but at least have some relevant backing for your point of view.
He gets insulted a lot because he fails to offer an alternative to what the government is doing that makes sense in view of the current state of the world. His alternative this time seems to be, “bow to the whims of a foreign madman,” which . . . just no.
Yes, a large part of his job involves disagreeing with the government, but he tends to do it with all of the depth of a toddler who’s just learned the meaning of the word “no”. Suggesting good alternatives is also part of the job, and he’s terrible at that—often he suggests nothing at all, and many of the suggestions he does make are obviously bad (or obviously unpopular, which for his purposes amounts to the same thing). During the last election, he didn’t seem to have much of a policy platform beyond “Liberals bad!”, and seemed to be doing his damndest to avoid being asked questions. In addition, he’s clearly not easy to get along with even for members of his own party, or they wouldn’t be fleeing like rats from a sinking ship.
Just being marginally civil about his “no” isn’t enough.
He gets low value insults because his entire schtick as opposition leader is hollow rhetoric that does not hold power to account like it’s supposed to - it is pure cheap shots that play well to a base of low-information voters while providing nothing of substantive value. Opposition for the sake of opposition, gets insults for the sake of insults.
He is slime.
Well I’ll give you points for actually verbalizing your complaints.
But if he has ''nothing of substantive value" then why does Carney keep copying his ideas?
It was the Conservative that pushed for “axing the tax” for years, and Carney finally did (at least the consumer part of the Carbon Tax). Poilievre pushed for dropping the GST on new homes for first time buyers, the Liberals did. Poilievre said they should axe gas taxes with the recent sudden rise in prices and the Liberals just announced they would. Poilievre has pushed for more pipelines for years - Carney hasn’t done it yet, but he’s signed an MOU in support of more. Poilievre has also pushed for abandoning an increase in the capital gains tax, postponing Trudeau’s electric vehicle mandate, giving a tax break to the middle class and reducing the size of the public service and radically reducing our out of control immigration program - all policies that Carney has implemented but Poilievre suggested first. Carney’s also working on toughening our criminal justice system, something Poilievre has been harping on for years.
Geez, those are significant policy changes from Trudeau era Liberal policy that started and were pushed by Poilievre. He must be pretty smart to come up with all of those and then have them implemented by the PM.
- Just some thoughts from a “low information” voter for the “slime” guy.
It’s almost tempting to engage in discussion, but you wear your flag so prominently, and engage is similar hollow partisan rhetoric, that I can see the warning signs. Like the white stripe of a skunk, it’s a warning to stay away because a putrid smell awaits. I guess I should thank you for the honesty, even if incidental.
Too bad. It would be nice to speak to a conservative about policy for policy’s sake, and not just engage in team boosterism and witless rhetoric. My only team is Canada, and even that is only in the service of the planet and all life on it. Political parties are just a neccessary (evil) means to get there. Seems I’m a bit of a rarity.
If its any consolation my user name is LoveCanada because that’s the truth. I defend Alberta because we catch a lot of criticism from people who dont live here, but Im NOT in favor of AB separation. Im a Canadian first, an Albertan second.
