Pierre Poilievre voted CP's 2023 Newsmaker of the Year by 26% of Canadian Press editors. Last year 49% of CP editors gave this honour to the "Freedom Convoy"

We did step up and connect with your movement. In fact so many of us stepped up to vote for a climate justice advocate as leader of your party that you retroactively changed the rules to disqualify her and then the old leader joined the board of Teck Resources coal spinoff.

Koch is listed as a Gold Sponsor at the Canada Strong and Free and Proud Networking Conference 2024, currently being held at the Westin in Ottawa. That's new. Today the climate change denier American Friends of the "Global Warming Policy Foundation" had their own whole panel.

@DenbySister @dalriad60 @MoralityPLS Below Andrew Scheer is questioned on Trump aide Mike Roman's role in his political campaign 3 years ago. Roman also featured in a 2019 CPC strategy session on deploying “litigation as a tool” to silence environmental critics.

@MgS_2011 Or could it have a lot to do with the constant stream of Abacus polls saying Canadians have a negative perception of Trudeau?

Why do we vote like this? Why do we vote as if we don't give a shit about the provincial jurisdictions of healthcare and climate crisis resource management, when any given poll shows these are among Canadians' top priorities? #cdnpoli

In the past 4 months, Poilievre has: 1) implied in the HoC that Trudeau lost his teaching job bc he is a pedophile, 2) accused the Liberal gov of starting Canada's wildfires, 3) called both Trudeau and his dad "Marxists" on camera while out door-knocking. What the actual fuck?

And if this reminds you of fox-hunting, there's a reason for that. One of the sponsors of the 33K Ontario Sporting Dog Association is The Chase Publishing Co of Kentucky who say they have "been in the business of promoting foxhunting since 1920" Ontario Sporting Dog Association:

Someone please prevent CPC MP Michael Cooper from reading passages from the shooter's manifesto into the HoC committee record this time.

The Buffalo supermarket shooter live-streamed his killings and posted an online manifesto because he wants his white supremacist beliefes to spread as far and wide as possible. We don't have to spread his propaganda by sharing copies of the stream and manifesto on social media.

Canadian Armed Forces members sent in to stabilize conditions in Ontario for-profit long term care facilities that Doug Ford is protecting from legal liability found those conditions so "traumatizing" that CAF had to provide mental health support teams to enable them to continue.

@VoiceOfFranky Admitted confirmation bias from me here but I found it very difficult to believe in the credibility of any of the other polling companies' polls purporting to show young women were warming up to the #mgtow guy.

And then when you break down Canada's 3rd lowest gas tax out of 36 OECD nations into its parts, you can see it's the provincial tax shown here in yellow that is the greatest share of it. That wee purple bar is the carbon tax!
