Carney may be leading the polls but the truth is Poilievre has a lot of support in this country If you are left leaning and/or don’t want to see the damage he could do to Canada, you cannot split this vote It’s not ideal but it’s reality . Vote accordingly

From: milly @milly72810023 on XShitter. "Tamara Lich was receiving E-mails from Stephen Harpers office prior to the convoy, that instructed her to use their suggested talking points. The same ones heard from Pierre Poilievre's media responses regarding the convoy."

Poilievre has had lengthy ties to Harper, whose agendas he followed and adhered to. This is a reminder of the Harper policies that needed changing after the switch to Liberals. CPC often show little to no interest in putting any effort into human rights and Poilievre will be no different. #cdnpoli

Interesting and disappointing read. #cdnpoli “And while Liberal leader Mark Carney is gaining ground and overtaking the Conservative Party in the polls, some suggest right-wing ideological leanings could become entrenched, regardless of who the next prime minister is.” thewalrus.ca/the-kids-are...

Let's not forget that Pierre Poilievre has been touring Canada for 3 years spreading antisemitic conspiracy theories. His favorite is the antisemitic conspiracy theory about WEF, which was created on the myth that Jewish wealth is controlling the world and global elites via the WEF. #cdnpoli

My concerns about the upcoming debate: 1. P's base and brand are more receptive to lies and unsupported accusations that hurt the opponent. So I expect that. 2. A new shock accusation/smear that C cannot respond to in real time 3. Lack of moderator challenges against realtime disinformation.
