Literal Donald Trump rhetoric.

“A Conservative government would put an end to the imposition of woke ideology…in the allocation of federal funds for university research.”

Where have I heard this rhetoric before? In which country has this rhetoric seized state power? How is that working out?

He can’t even define ‘woke’. I’m guessing he can’t even spell it.

PP can piss off.

Yes.

My god! Canada had better fucking reject this bullshit by a landslide! I CAN'T EVEN!🤬

I might have thought he'd have learned from Doug Ford's successful rebranding

I am amazed they haven't realized that this kind of red meat BS isn't going to work for them in the post-Trudeau, trade war environment.

Glad for it, though.

It's hard to pivot from a "Canada's shit, and so are you" platform once you've already had the signs printed.

These guys are morons. The goal of this election is to distance yourself from Trump, not repeat his rhetoric.

Is he trying to lose the campaign?

Ugh!😑 Woke?? Really?

Does he want Québec to annex the other provinces ?

erstelinie.bsky.social•62 days ago

Does he not understand he is not in Alberta, but in Quebec????

meanderingemu.bsky.social•62 days ago

this sells in Québec. Why do you think the CAQ got reelected so easily

erstelinie.bsky.social•62 days ago

conflating CAQ’s provincial nationalism with federal Conservative rhetoric is reductive. Quebec’s intellectual tradition values scholarly autonomy; “anti-woke” posturing may read as federal overreach, not freedom—especially in a province sensitive to external imposition.

La CAQ is not nationalist. They are a populist party playing on people's fear, and Legault has many time aligned himself with PP

or Elizabeth May, way prior to Donald.

"In sync with." In the US, this repugnant ideology is taking devastating blows to science, academic freedom, free speech, due process, social safety nets, public safety, the public service, democratic institutions, and immigration. Poilievre wants to emulate this in Canada? Absolutely not!

Smith is already actively implementing this in Alberta: the Venn diagram between the above list and the bills passed since 2023 is a perfect circle. We're hoarse from calling it out, but apparently it's just the hysterical hyperbole of the radical left ...

traceyeb.bsky.social•61 days ago

People are increasingly paying attention, so keep calling it out!!

melibe-l.bsky.social•61 days ago

And yet "promises to respect province's autonomy" is the headline? Strange choice.
