Maybe it’s time PeePee books an appointment with Dr. Weiss

In the future I would like to see one of the many great Canadian women in the Prime Minister position.
The Liberal party alone has several great women.
Right now I think PM Carney is our best option.
But in 8 yrs+/-? I could see him as a #2 in the Liberals.

diasrt.bsky.social•50 days ago

Actually i would haved to see a carney/gould position to set up for the future?

honestcanadian.bsky.social•49 days ago

A possibility.

diasrt.bsky.social•49 days ago

I dont know... the fact that she wasn't in his cabinet makes me question if he'd ever consider her for anything

honestcanadian.bsky.social•49 days ago

It would depend on if they can find common ground on important topics.

diasrt.bsky.social•49 days ago

Yes, but that would slso b the same for a carney/gould ticket

mygiddyhorse.bsky.social•50 days ago

As a woman I find him hypocritical. He says he cares about biological clocks and yet his party votes against women’s health every vote they get. Reproductive health includes all aspects of women’s health not just trying to get pregnant. You can’t say you support women, then vote against us.

hilarywollis.bsky.social•50 days ago

Poilievre’s continued remarks are ALL thinly-veiled dogwhistles to the 🚩Christian nationalist🚩, 🚩pro-life🚩 (more like forced birth) interest groups that populate the CPC base.
🏡 Home ownership is NOT a prerequisite for pregnancy and parenting
🩻 Get your jingoistic politics out of women’s #healthcare

policyfolk.bsky.social•50 days ago

I, for one, suggest that Poilievre use his wife as a prop even more often.

neilforreal.bsky.social•50 days ago

Pierre Poilievre cast his lot with the people who see women as trad-wives and breeding mares. I can't imagine why they'd be repelled. (Plus he's just a creepy little shit.)

coolxenu.bsky.social•50 days ago

neilforreal.bsky.social•50 days ago

I'll take 20. 😄

bemuse1919.bsky.social•50 days ago

Well, he *is* a walking, talking red flag..

viennawoods.bsky.social•50 days ago

I think that he was under the mistaken assumption that all of his various bodily modifications would render him more attractive to female voters. He's obviously not familiar with the saying "handsome is as handsome does"

hoofrat.bsky.social•50 days ago

The makeup hasn’t been invented that can make him look human.

mllp1962.bsky.social•50 days ago

Now more men need to get on board the #neverpoilievre train.

clahude.bsky.social•50 days ago

nintarii.bsky.social•50 days ago

There was a time where Poilievre would have called those statements "virtue signalling"

ambermurray.bsky.social•50 days ago

kathrynmathias.bsky.social•50 days ago

It's crucial that we encourage those in our social circles, who share our opinion of Poilievre (see @maxfawcett.bsky.social's piece he penned and is sharing here), to turn out and VOTE.

travisfigures.bsky.social•50 days ago

Some absolutely glaring warning signs... honestly, given his behaviour and history of comments why should women (and men who respect women) have much faith in him as a leader?

spicyerin.bsky.social•50 days ago

He’s a creep. He gives women the ick.

dawnalene.bsky.social•50 days ago

I still remember #MGTOW

coolxenu.bsky.social•50 days ago

And they still try to disavow it. Conservatives seem to think everyone has the attention span of a gnat.

hab3261.bsky.social•50 days ago

I decided 2 years ago I was not voting for PP , I said ew then and now I say EW

jekllnnhide.bsky.social•50 days ago

he's a smarmy misogynist... one of his many 'ists', and women are done being talked down to by weak politicians with no relevant edu, who are taking their talking points from nutjob misogynistic 'Christians'.

vivian38.bsky.social•50 days ago

Women can see his smarmy smirk a mile away. Add the fact that he and his minions would remove women's rights to reproductive health-care and you will understand #womenagainstpoilievre

dreajane20.bsky.social•44 days ago

They keep trying. Every single conservative mp is a pro lifer.

missmaudiemaude.bsky.social•50 days ago

I’m just going to refer to him as “Ballot Box Poison” from now on.

hoofrat.bsky.social•50 days ago

I’ve been going with “ambulatory slime”, but that works too.

heartembrace.bsky.social•50 days ago

These polls worry me. I think this is partly how the Dems lost. Voters were too complacent & thought a madman couldn’t win. Canadian voters cannot afford to be complacent this election. The future of Canada’s democracy & sovereignty is on the line if voters don’t show up for Canada & Carney.

digthatdata.bsky.social•44 days ago

It's also how Brexit happened. This is all part of the same ongoing effort to fragment NATO and destabilize the western powers from the inside out.

biggslloyd.bsky.social•44 days ago

another thing, I have heard people say "I did not vote because I did not like any of the candidates" Well, then vote for who you dislike the least!

heartembrace.bsky.social•44 days ago

Exactly this.

biggslloyd.bsky.social•44 days ago

...absolutely!

itzmekatherine.bsky.social•50 days ago

PP pushes to link things for his agenda that are distantly related but not supportive of each other. He needs to be told in very direct terms that designing life plans for people has nothing to do with him.
Put housing assistance out there for everyone no matter what. Drop the fairytale agenda.

jazzy987.bsky.social•50 days ago

Pierre talks about our biological clocks cause he is president of MenGoingTheirOwnWay… never forget he recruited them in videos and no one ever took responsibility

cfraser146.bsky.social•50 days ago

The flip side of this that a majority of men are voting Conservative which is somewhat mind-boggling imo.

maxfawcett.bsky.social•50 days ago

Bare majority. In more recent polls Poilievre is even trailing among men.

1marzipan.bsky.social•50 days ago

Wonder if the Republican presidents tariff induced job losses will alter that? Poilievre is a Trump clone, so they can expect subservience to Trump as a 51st state will be far worse.

itzmekatherine.bsky.social•50 days ago

My spouse voted Liberal for the first time. Yes- that huge clap of thunder heard across our province was him marking his ballot.
Times are a changing.

suze-bsky.bsky.social•50 days ago

It is concerning I would like to see an age group break down of the polls I think that could provide some insight - I know my sons, hubby wouldn’t vote for him so I’m curious what age range he appeals to

reeniebrouhaha.bsky.social•49 days ago

He's an idiot. Plain and simple.

ruedeparis.bsky.social•50 days ago

Recall that he has back benchers that have brought forward policy around the “unborn” in Parliament.

dpoolie.bsky.social•50 days ago

I thought of this as I heard the kids in my apartment building heading to school this morning.

cityscribe.bsky.social•50 days ago

If the US is a leading indicator (and it is), the CPC is prepared to keep losing the battle to win the war.

albamarie.bsky.social•45 days ago

No Wonder why😠

derdeh.bsky.social•50 days ago

He generally gives me the creeps. The kind of guy you cross the street to avoid kind of creeps. He lies constantly and is blatantly insulting to women. He will sell out Canada in a heartbeat. He was installed by foreign interference, so he is owned by foreign adversaries. #NeverPoilievre

kirkcaldyblue.bsky.social•50 days ago

I can attest

neddog.bsky.social•50 days ago

He's right at home with Donald "The Fertilization President" Trump.

kellycorfe.bsky.social•50 days ago

He makes me gag!

coolxenu.bsky.social•50 days ago

I always thought that, during campaigns, political parties are supposed to try to attract voters. For the past three federal elections, the #ConservativePartyOfCanada has fielded repellent candidates. The last two suffered humiliating defeats for #StephenHarper's baby. Will PP top them all? #cdnpoli

jjerke.bsky.social•50 days ago

what? the biceps and tight tshirts didn't suddenly remake his image?

lady-bug.bsky.social•49 days ago

He must be pissed. He can't attack Trudeau much anymore 🤣 He is an absolute idiot!

ana-lia-pauchu.bsky.social•50 days ago

Thank you for pointing that out. It has been disheartening to listen to some female pundits who don’t think it was a big deal for Poilievre to invoke women’s bodies as a campaign pitch.

diasrt.bsky.social•50 days ago

Every psycho has their followers. In the rotting carcass to our south it was the same thing

joanmckenzie.bsky.social•50 days ago

While I've never voted Conservative ANYTHING in my lifetime, I have watched the party over decades - the leadership getting successively worse and the merged Con party more irrelevant and unrecognizable, until we have this final utter LOW and that's Poilievre.

mythicaldragoness.bsky.social•50 days ago

Same.

thesophasaurus.bsky.social•49 days ago

Seems to me like his hatred for women stems from being abandoned by his biological mother. But I’m not psychologist.

taejonguy.bsky.social•50 days ago

It's funny how all developed nations are suffering from reduced family sizes. I guess Trudeau's reach was global.

nutmeggy.bsky.social•50 days ago

He strikes as a guy who probably has zero platonic female friends.

siriustyles.bsky.social•50 days ago

And probably a good percentage of his male base!

inthewoodshop.bsky.social•50 days ago

pjhvan.bsky.social•50 days ago

It hope women don’t forget about his #mgtow posts

mattpark10.bsky.social•50 days ago

As a guy, the best time to mention a woman’s biological clock is never. To think it’s somehow a good idea to do so in an effort to make some political point in the campaign trail is bordering on non compos mentis.

middleaudio.bsky.social•50 days ago

I know who my male friends and family members are, who are all in for this guy. Most of them could never describe their true reasoning, out loud, and in the open. That is a huge indicator for me, just how fundamentally dishonest that group is.
