How do you support independence while wanting to be a federal MP?

We've been waiting for two years! There must be a journalist out there with the courage to investigate.🤞

Pollievre does not want to be a federal MP - he wants to be Prime Minister of Canada in a seat in a province with a Premier that wants to separate. The fact that the MSM are not analyzing and dissecting this along with his lack of security clearance with the threat of annexation is disturbing.

You would think CBC would be all over this as they are on his “hit” parade.

fauxrrari1.bsky.social•21 days ago

Excellent point. Yes!!

ljdr48.bsky.social•21 days ago

It’s called butt-hole sucking for votes

selek437.bsky.social•21 days ago

MSM! Do. Your. Fucking. Job!!!

gibbensauthor.bsky.social•21 days ago

Very good question for them to ask. Also very good question: Why aren't the journalists DOING this already?

neelkumar3050.bsky.social•21 days ago

They won't ask him. They are terrified of him. Did they ask him tough questions during the campaign?? His own MP's and the entire con party is terrified of him. They will get one chance to get rid of him at the leadership review. But I think they are too terrified even if it is a secret vote.

adelleloiselle.bsky.social•21 days ago

They had no meaningful access to him. Four questions, pre-approved, at each stop. No one on the campaign bus. The CPC’s transparency is very limited.

neelkumar3050.bsky.social•20 days ago

And yet somehow the narcissistic fuck managed to get so many votes away from the NDP of all the things. So many union people voted for PP that it boggles the mind.

marylougeorge2.bsky.social•20 days ago

It makes me think #Conservative Premiers’ cuts to education sure are dumbing down some #Canadians.

mccondach.bsky.social•21 days ago

He's backed himself in a corner and it will be beautiful to watch.

locutusof.bsky.social•21 days ago

In the HoC

PP: stupid bloviating comment phrased sort of as a question to Carney.

Carney: Mr/Madame Speaker, I’d like to thank the member from Alberta and the leader of His Majesty’s LOYAL Opposition for this comment. I’d like to know what the member is doing to fight separatism in his new riding?

canadiancynic.bsky.social•21 days ago

That's good.

ridgewaysretreat.bsky.social•21 days ago

Huh that is a great point

kcountry.bsky.social•21 days ago

MSM is owned by foreign multinationals with Republican leanings. They can't even if they want to. Independent journalism is out only option. But one thing that hinders that is bias analysis not news. Oh how I miss the days of news not news analysis or someone's opinion being portrayed as news

marylougeorge2.bsky.social•20 days ago

Thank #Harper for making foreign ownership of #Canadian media legal. #Conservatives care only about their own power. They don’t care about serving the best interests of Canadians.

caff3.bsky.social•21 days ago

He thinks 'we' are the stupid ones.

consbegone.bsky.social•21 days ago

Cons don’t get hounded in this country. That’s for Trudeau.

nish57.bsky.social•21 days ago

Or any Liberal

deb2468.bsky.social•21 days ago

That's all he knows. Go to parliament to disrupt business. Make sure to waste everyone's time so nothing for the people gets accomplished. That's what he does. Look at me. I have a new slogan.

animal-x.bsky.social•20 days ago

Yeah! Now that he's not calling the shots, it's time to start asking him the tough questions he shielded himself from during his campaign.

tigep.bsky.social•21 days ago

Same applies to all bloc MPs..

paulwcraig1.bsky.social•21 days ago

You might consider the position of every member of the BQ. A federal party committed to having Quebec an independent country. They're at least clear about what it is they're working towards. Smith can't articulate a clear anything, and slogan guy hasn't a complete thought, ever.

hoofpicker.bsky.social•20 days ago

Agreed! And it begs the questions; Will the Con Party of Canada then change their name to the Con Party of Alberta? And if so, what about the people that voted for them in other provinces?
It's going to be interesting times for Mr. PP

sharw00d.bsky.social•20 days ago

Still waiting for that security clearance too...

boomernightwatch.bsky.social•20 days ago

I wouldn’t count on MSM for anything

marylougeorge2.bsky.social•20 days ago

Agreed. The foreign owned #Canadian main stream media has been shilling for #Conservatives for years.

ronniw.bsky.social•20 days ago

Pierre Paul, there is all things to all men who hate

albertabluesycatz.bsky.social•20 days ago

Appealing to maple magas in that red district is all. Smoke and mirrors. It's all shite.
Most of us Canadians have no idea how long and how difficult, if not impossible it would be for Alberta to separate from Canada.
We're talking a decade.

superslim.bsky.social•20 days ago

The weasel is all for anything to keep his gravy train going.

tlt55.bsky.social•20 days ago

Maybe, when push comes to shove, and Alberta starts proceedings to separate, PP will give the riding back to the guy who actually won it with votes, and find a riding elsewhere in Canada to take over by having the winner hand it to him.

canadiancynic.bsky.social•20 days ago

But if Alberta "separates," why should the rest of Canada accept any federal MPs from somewhere that is no longer part of Canada?

tlt55.bsky.social•20 days ago

I imagine he’d make his jump before an actual separation happens….while he’s still a Canadian citizen.

captainconstance.bsky.social•21 days ago

They’ve done nothing for decades on his security clearance, so….

nish57.bsky.social•21 days ago

Right!!!

da-nie-l.bsky.social•20 days ago

The block Quebecois does that.

mcsweeney.bsky.social•21 days ago

Power by any/all means.

churanah.bsky.social•21 days ago

I'd also like them to ask what kind of message it sends to the country that he's running in one of the most separatist ridings. Pierre is so blatantly a traitor.

kassiedee.bsky.social•20 days ago

He won’t be able to avoid this issue if he wins that seat. Especially if he stays on as opposition leader. The other parties won’t let him.

bogs-of-the-wood4.bsky.social•21 days ago

Let alone he's been promised the LOO back, once he gets his pity seat. Rock and a hard place, for sure.

fire-and-fury.bsky.social•21 days ago

This IS the question!

mangomussolini.bsky.social•21 days ago

Traitorous little ball of hate…he should be arrested on sight when he slithers back to YOW

stewiespeeks.bsky.social•20 days ago

And also hound him on his security clearance

marxistdad.bsky.social•17 days ago

Hold a seance and query the ghost of reactionary Mississippi U.S. Senator / CSA “President” Jefferson Davis. He might provide some insight into #LittlePP and all of Alberta’s capitalist economic ruling class’s position on the matter.
