This French Canadian is perfectly fine with Carney's effort. That, and his actual policies, are what matter. Not the obnoxious bloviating of Pierre Poilievre
Besides speaking French, does Poilievre have other strengths? Like an economic policy that can counter Trump's tariffs? Or a foreign policy that can protect Canada's sovereignty?
Merci mais non merci. Nous avons eu assez avec presque 10 ans de LPC. L'alternance du pouvoir est essentielle à la démocratie. Better luck next time. The French culture/language is mostly what distinguiches Canada from the USA.
Protecting French should not come at the expense of ensuring every Canadian has equal
Opportunity & Access to government services.
I dont have the right to get information from my city in English—including a translation of my tax bill. And we have 1 high school, it’s English language. Imagine.
I wish you the best of luck, Sir. Unfortunately, I have been trying to Verify for over a week and had naught but auto-responses from the email Assistance account.
Looks like I won't be voting for you, after all, this weekend.
's OK. If you take Sunday, I'll mark my X for you on a Federal ballot.
As a linguist that wishes she could speak French way better, I could see way back the importance of how retaining one’s language was integral to retaining one’s culture. Seeing how much anglophone Canadian culture has been eroded by overexposure to American culture, I wish we had that bulwark.
And while some of us who are classified as les têtes carrées and speak French comme une vache Espanol, we understand the value of learning a second language; especially, one that reflects our Canadian identity.
I love how Québec is now seeming closer to the rest of Canada! Plus Québec is somewhere I want to plan many more vacations so I'm attempting to improve my French 😁
Canada is buying Swedish Saab JAS 39 Gripen Fighters. Cheaper than F35 and will be built in Canada. Data uploads controlled by Canada, not USA as in the F35.
If Trump doesn’t dump Musk quickly America will sink. A recession is expected. America is also under scrutiny for the attack on freedom of choice . Accountancy firms maintain what Musk saved is a fraction of what he brags he’s saved.
I agree. I don’t speak more than a few words in French and have never had issues in Montreal or Quebec City. I try, and I think it is appreciated. J’aime le Quebec!
I have said for decades that every young Canadian (say around age 20) should have to make a mandatory road trip coast to coast. Anyone who's driven through Quebec in Jan or Feb, through all the small towns with their own winter carnivals, etc, will love it, & know that culture will never be at risk.
I love the train, it's how I travel, but it doesn't stop in the places I'm talking about for this. You need to be pulling off the road in small villages & towns to get your breakfast & lunch. Spending an evening getting to know some people you wouldn't otherwise ever meet.
What about First Nations? Been to any reserves to campaign? 🤔 It’d be a good idea to attend a community event - the citizens don’t meet you when parties only go campaign to the Chiefs at AFN-AGA’s. 🤷🏽♀️ We vote too, not just them!
Du Québec, merci M. Carney. Merci aussi pour les francophones du Canada. Mais svp incluez toutes les langues autotoctones, ce sont nos frères et soeurs qui ont beaucoup donné et souffert pour ce pays.
I have never been so proud of Quebec like I am with this fight. You have shown me the love for your province and Country. Ontario and others can learn from you
Hey Marlene! I can pretty much guarantee that no one in the Liberal party is ‘cozying up’ to Trump - pretty much the opposite. PP lies almost as much as Trump. Cheers from Winnipeg!
I'm not an idiot, I'm a research finatic and don't believe everything I hear or see. I know it's difficult to accept but whether we like it or not people are going to make their own choices and have to live with them, as Americans are sadly finding out.

Through as I was waiting online. It popped up when I went to the sight rather then the email.

How about dumping the x platform and the F35’s.
Musk is pure evil and trump should get no contracts from 🇨🇦
A small rural community.
We have a vibrant French culture including a full immersion school.
Ps...You have my vote for strong and healing Canada going forward
"Fuck the French language, I don't need that to run for Prime Minister"
Before you vote please do some research. Don’t watch the ads from any party.
