PP's #NoMoreSacrifices is more than just a hate- & fear-mongering brainwashing rally targeting youth. Its glorifying of self-centered self-absorption is raising the next gen of convoyers. It's training kids to be unable to care about anything/anyone beyond their own noses.

He's molding the next PP.

No one said that.
If someone did say that, it wasn't me.
If it was me, I didn't use those words.
If I did use those words, you misunderstood me.

Poilievre’s second backtrack attempt. He insisted that he didn’t say what we all heard him say, and then sent his MPs out to try and spin it to say something other than what we all heard him say. #cdnpoli

Here's an idea:
How about politicians stop toeing the party line, always voting according to their party leader's demands, and start representing the needs of their constituents?
Your entire job is to ensure that those who elected you have their voices heard, not just an empty echo of your peers.

We call the Canadian $1 coin a loonie. Suppose if 45 gets his face on an American $1 coin, loonie would still fit.

Artist credit: @claytoonz.bsky.social

Image is a cartoon. On the left side it reads "new $1 trump coin". Below that is a $1 silver coin surrounded by flies with a drawing of Trump on it holding McDonald's fries, wearing a long red tie and a Nazi armband. On his shirt is says "show me the money". Other images on the coin include Jeffrey Epstein, a person in a KKK robe, a Russian flag, and the words "fascism" and "in grift we trust ".
On the right hand side it reads "old Lincoln penny". Below that is a penny with a drawing of Lincoln on it. He's vomiting with the word "raaaalph" underneath. On the coin it reads"in God we trust", "liberty", and "1990".

While not opposed to the idea, it is important to make updates to the curriculum across Canada. Increasing education in civics, media literacy, critical thinking & the spread of disinformation is crucial regardless if we are going to protect our democracy from the same decline being seen in the US.

At what point will the Speaker do his job & direct the Cons to show respect when others are speaking?

Clearly, the time in the house is just meant for grandstanding & soundbites for the Cons, but Canadians want to see real work done there.

Heckling may be a tradition but this is beyond childish.

To quote a former PM who also called 45 on his crap:

You can't buy back the love of Canadians with a deal you likely won't even keep.

PP in Question Period mischaracterizing what PMMC said in the oval office makes it clear - either he lacks any basic understanding of how the economy works or he lacks any compunction about twisting reality to fit his narrative.

Disappointing but utterly unsurprising. Country over party my foot.

willwrite4coffee.bsky.social @willwrite4coffee.bsky.social · 21d

Expectations for today?

45 will say crazy things, PMMC will try to deflect & deescalate.

45 loves taxing his own people, so repealing tarrifs is unlikely. Any deal he makes won't be worth the paper it's written on.

PP will call anything that happens a failure.

This. The fact that many are entrenched in their voting habits means that even as the CPC veers off the far-right Reform cliff, they will continue to vote blue. It's time for moderate conservatives to stop being complicit and bring back a federal progressive conservative party.

It’s very clear that the Poilievre strategy is to keep his base, absorb the PPC voters and pray for a split between the Liberals and NDP as a path to power. That’s why he’s not trying to draw moderates. He’s got nothing to lose now and he’s all in on division.

PP's hyperpartisan letter to Carney before US meeting.

If 🇨🇦 wanted you to represent us internationally, we would have elected you PM. Stop trying to undermine PMMC while lying about putting country over party. Let him do the job you are completely unqualified for.

#canpoli #cdnpoli #NeverPoilievre

Header of letter reads: Leader of the opposition, October 6, 2025. Addressed to Mark Carney.
Subject: Go to Washington and "negotiate a win" for Canada
Prime Minister,
Conservatives will always put Canada first. We restate our standing offer to help you keep your promise to "negotiate a win" on tarrifs with the U.S.
We only ask that you keep your promise in this meeting with the president. You promised a deal by July 21, 2025. Still no deal. You promised to "negotiate a win" and now US tarrifs om Canada are twice as high as when you were elected saying you would get rid of them. You promised "elbows up" then caved on dollar-for-dollar tarrifs, the Digital Services tax and more while winning nothing in return for Canada.
You promised jobs. Then killed 86,000 of them. You promised the "fastest-growing economy in the G7" and delivered the fastest-shrinking economy in the G7. Canadians suffering in your weak economy have no more time for you to bask in globe-trotting photo ops, handshakes and press conferences.
No more losing. It's time for you to deliver the promised wins:
-get US tarrifs off Canadian softwood lumber as Prime Minister Harper negotiated within 80 days of taking office.
-get US tarrifs off Canadian steel, aluminum, copper and auto tarrifs that have doubled since you took office. Time for your promised win to reverse the damage.
-get rid of all other US tarrifs
We only expect you to keep your promises. If you only return with excuses, broken promises and photo ops, you will have failed our workers, our businesses and our country.

Note: fact-checking recommended

Header reads: Leader of the Opposition

I am always happy to help because we all must put Canada ahead of our parties.
Best wishes in Washington, Prime Minister. We are all cheering for a big win for Canada.
Sincerely,
(Signed) Pierre Poilievre
