Then Poilievre should stop squatting Stornoway and loitering around Parliament. While Canadians struggle to buy groceries, the Conservative leader is set to cost taxpayers over $1 million for his personal bi-election #cdnpoli

That statement is riddled with logical flaws. #cdnpoli "I got into politics to serve the communities I grew up in [...]. A practical way I could give back to the region that I love and care about so much, and look forward to [..] see Pierre be that passionate representative of this region [...]."

DUZA BEAR Dear #PierrePoilievre: The normal thing for a private citizen that has concerns about the government is NOT to loiter around parliament every day being a pest. What you're supposed to do is contact your local MP like every other private citizen in Canada and express any concerns to them.

Our politicians have played around with the Notwithstanding Clause and other tools because our imaginary never conceived they would turn the military against us. Nothing is impossible, folks. This is why we must challenge every single democratic violation. #cdnpoli

The outcome of this battle against fascism is not yet decided, but a reminder to Canadians: Remember which of our leaders were calling for closer integration with the US just a few months ago. They have poor judgement and should not be listened to. They cannot see what is obvious.

Power grabs at the provincial level. "Houston’s power plays follow a disturbing trend among Canadian premiers seeking to quash dissent and centralize executive control over decision-making, often to override the power of municipal governments or the legislative process." #cdnpoli

He’s showing Canada that he’s a mini-dictator in the making. He refuses to tke no for an answer and he displays a despicable tone. This is no longer conservatism, it is a populist party, mirroring what we see down south. An elite, disconnected from Canadians, serving only its own interests. #cdnpoli

I would like to see more academics and less american-style pundits on CBC, CTV and other Canadian news channels. Canadians need unbiased facts, not opinions from commentators/pundits. Pundits are not reporters. Inform Canadians and fact check information is needed. #cdnpoli

Basically, Rowe was elected without the true will of the people because voters did not follow the rules. I see this as a symptom of a lack of civic education. Everyone assumes that voting is easy and that we all know how to do it but that's not always the case. #cdnpoli

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life. Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

Aren’t these the very rules they don’t follow themselves: 'Do not steal’ (Bill in Congress), ‘Do not lie’ (they do it everyday)? We’re back to the monarchy before the French Revolution: 'Obey peasants' while the privileged nobility enjoy every privilege right before your eyes.

It’s a cautionary tale. People don’t recognize when politicians lie straight to their faces. We’re facing the same problem in Canada. They manipulate emotions, make people feel heard, polarize them, and then betray them. #cdnpoli

It was an excellent segment. He highlighted a significant shift from the government already, but emphasized that real progress can't be measured by words alone. He clearly stated that BC, AB, and SK need a project on the ground. A project advancing provincial economies. #cdnpoli
