If you watch the clips from Pierre Poilievre talking in a friendly room I’ve been sharing— one thing is clear.. he’s an existential threat to law, order, democracy, and freedom just as Trump is. If Canadians blink and he somehow slips in as PM, we are cooked.

Washington buying stakes in Canadian mines creates national-security dilemma for Ottawa - as the U.S. secures access to Canada's rare minerals - and further erodes our sovereignty.

Will Mark Carney's liberals stop this blatant interference?

Attention Canadians. 🇨🇦🍁

Please pass this along to your followers.

Canada deserves an opposition party that challenges the government with the intention of working towards the good of all its people.

Hate messaging and rage farming is not my Canada.

CPC where is your integrity?

“A report by the CBC revealed that Pierre Poilievre hired the team behind Canada Proud to ‘boost his messages online.’ The organization has since been caught running disinformation campaigns targeting Mark Carney. Canadians deserve to know every last detail about Poilievre‘s ties to Canada Proud.”

@globalnews.ca I'd like to understand more about this issue. Before your next broadcast could you please inform viewers what this ostrich farm does. Are the ostriches there farmed for their meat? Their eggs? Their feathers? Other reasons? To be sold to other farms for breeding? #ostrichcull

Anyway. Get a library card. Cancel things you know no longer serves your world view, really do it and subscribe to newsletters you trust. I feel for this world. This isn’t how it’s supposed to be.

I’ve come to the conclusion that the conservative right WANTS the country to fail.

If things were perceived as okay, there’s an entire group of Canadians that will literally lose the only identity they now have.

That includes Pierre Poilievre.
