A brief summary of the UCP corruption scandal: - If they didn’t know what was going on they are incompetent. - If they did knew what was going on they are crooks. In both cases they wasted a boat-load of our money, and didn’t make healthcare any better.

Pierre’s not just taking a single page, he’s following Trump’s whole playbook.

Looks like Smith is leaking against Guthrie to try and dirty him up, after he came out against Lagrange.

Mark Carney 🇨🇦 going after Poilievre. “There’s no stronger believer in the power of the market, and free enterprise, and Milton Friedman, and fundamentalism than someone who’s only ever been a politician. Someone who’s never earned a paycheque or had to make payroll.” #cdnpoli #peipoli

Almost never in life do you get to vote for the candidate who is the actually most qualified person for the job. We’ll get that opportunity with Mark Carney.

Mark Carney has the heads of international banking systems on speed dial. This is what helped him guide CPC Flaherty not only through CDN recession, but it helped Flaherty guide Ireland out of pending bankruptcy. Poilievre is an amateur with an empty toolbox.

If Musk was a good scientist or understood research and engineering he wouldn’t have destroyed the American scientific community- he would have used it instead. He’s just some rich asshole.

You know what Canada bungled? Allowing US foreign ownership of 🇨🇦 media.

Victoria Coates is President Trump’s former deputy national security advisor, now at the US Heritage Foundation think tank. I asked her *how* President Trump wld go about getting 2m Palestinians out of Gaza

No *objective* person on planet earth actually thinks Pierre Poilievre could handle the economy better than a two-time central bank governor and the person Stephen Harper called upon to, and praised afterwards for, saving the Canadian economy in 2008 (Mark Carney).

~One of the few times this guy gets it right

The ballot question in Canada's upcoming Federal election is; Do you want to build Canada up - Mark Carney Or tear Canada down - Pierre Poilievre

And as it turned out, Canada was never broken; Pierre Poilievre was. The End.🕊️

No wonder Danielle Smith is in hiding. This isn’t a scandal anymore. It has all the attributes of an organized criminal group. #ableg www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber...

It’s even worse. Poilievre shows up in Iqaluit and doesn’t let anyone know, including the Premier of Nunavut. As Marc Miller puts it, “You can’t secure the Arctic without the Inuit.”

A couple months ago when Minister Joly announced an Arctic military presence plan, Poilievre asked, “…from who? Santa Claus?” Now I guess he’s suddenly terrified of Santa Claus? What a joke this man is. I wouldn’t hire him to mow my lawn, let alone be PM.

It's wild how many Americans still vaguely think of China as the place where low-wage labor cranks out low-value ticky-tacky products. That was true, I dunno, 20 years ago, but these days China is kicking our ass specifically on sophisticated high-tech engineering. We oughta be embarrassed.

Putin wants to bring the world back to the 19th century. Trump is an accelerant. The silence of the international community on all of this is deafening.

This this this this …👇

Fuck off. Then keep fucking off. Fuck off until you come up to a gate with a sign saying ‘You Can’t Fuck Off Past Here.’ Climb over the gate, dream the impossible dream, and keep fucking off forever.

More like “Smith demands investigation after directing UCP lackeys to fire everyone with direct knowledge of said investigation.” Danielle Smith already had everyone who was trying to give them answers fired. She doesn’t want answers, she wants time. #ableg #abpoli

Brazil President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva "I respect the election of President Trump who was elected by the American people to govern the United States," but "he was not elected to rule the world." www.chinadailyhk.com/hk/article/6...

“To see [Poilievre] bolstering Trump’s over-torqued fentanyl allegation will cause many [Canadians] to view the Tory leader as willing to sell out Canada by fabricating facts.” So I guess now we’re just waiting to see if Poilievre, Ford or Smith will be the first to hand over the keys.

No AB govt has played a more heavy-handed role in AHS than Danielle Smith’s. They’ve replaced the CEO 5 times, the Board twice, reorganized, decentralized, allegedly messed with contracts. Nobody’s believing Danielle Smith’s fiction that AHS is somehow separate from her. She made sure it wasn’t.

Call the program "Discovery, Exploration and Innovation" (DEI)

The Spanish lost an armada at sea. The English fought two world wars. The Romans spent centuries fighting off invaders across a continental border and going toe-to-toe with another empire. America elected a black guy and their rich white people all threw in the towel.

Canada's staring down the biggest crisis in decades. Who better to steer the ship than someone who knows his way around one? #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2025/02/07/o...

In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents. It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years. There should be no profit in education or healthcare or prisons!

The Breakdown is one of the only outlets in Alberta that have been exposing Smith. HELP THEM.

If Poilievre has this much trouble pivoting in an election campaign for an election that hasn’t even been called yet how’s he going to deal with any real crises if he’s leading Canadian government?

The Papua New Guinea Courier is in rare form.

So we’ve got Doug Ford saying he was 100% thrilled Trump won the election, we’ve got Poilievre’s CPC saying Canadians being patriotic because of Trump is a problem for the CPC campaign, and there’s Danielle Smith enjoying brunch crepes at Mar-a-Lago. These Conservatives are just not worth the cost.

Not every Canadian Pierre Poilievre supporter is a Trump supporter. But every Canadian Trump supporter is a Pierre Poilievre supporter. That’s a big red flag. #TeamCanada
