Like Trump, Poilievre intends to crack down on govt employees and universities who do not follow his RW ideology. "put an end to the imposition of woke ideology in the federal civil service and in the allocation of federal funds for university research." #ElbowsUp #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Trump promoted a crypto investment where lots of people lost their money. There is only one Canadian Prime Minister candidate who promoted a crypto investment where lots of people lost their money. He wants to run our economy. #canpoli #cdnpoli #CanadaStrong www.nationalobserver.com/2024/03/06/o...

There’s something scary happening in the Canadian federal election. In Quebec, the Bloc leader is now telling voters “Carney WILL WIN” so people can vote to give the Bloc more seats. Singh is now saying Carney will get a “super majority” so voters can elect NDP candidates. Do you see the problem?

Poilievre’s late budget assumes more revenue to offset their costs. Easy to say you’ll have a (slightly) smaller deficit if u assume more revenue during an economic crisis. Economists say Carney’s plan is smarter for the moment we’re in (deficits vs investments), and is more credible. No surprise.

Poilievre doesn’t have a costed plan because he was banking on running against Trudeau and assumed he’d never need a plan of any kind

Poilievre slogan: "Axe the Inflation Tax" Inflation is not a tax. Canada's inflation rate is 2.3%. The long term average is 3.1%. Inflation is currently in the preferred normal range. Tariffs are a tax. Tariffs are inflationary. Tariffs are needed to counter US tariffs in a trade war.

#Liberal platform spending includes defence, housing, tax cuts, and savings from increased government efficiency efforts. Honestly, any spending programs or deficits will depend on how deeply the trade war affects the Canadian economy and a likely recession. #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Poilievre shouldn’t get to say a single thing about Carney’s fully costed platform until he has released his own fully costed platform. If he ever does release one. Maybe Pierre’s costed platform is like the security clearance everyone else has, but PP keeps making excuses about. Never coming.

Trump has been a bit more quiet lately about Canada because he got the memo from Poilievre & Danielle Smith to lay low until the Canadian election’s over. But he’s still making it very clear when asked that he wants to annex Canada through (at least) economic war. Vote like Canada depends on it.

It’s a very Canadian thing for the French language debate in the Canadian federal election to be rescheduled to earlier on Wednesday night so that it doesn’t conflict with a key Montréal Canadiens game (it could be the Canadiens’ last chance to clinch a playoff spot— Go Habs go!) Hey, it’s hockey.

BREAKING: Canadians are being warned to be “extra vigilant” against deliberate disinformation efforts & campaigns during the last few weeks of the Canadian Federal Election. Disinformation has become a constant thing, but a significant ramp-up is expected as we approach the Debates later this week.

When he was Prime Minister, Harper was the worst national leader in the democratic world. He was THE global dinosaur & obstructionist on the #ClimateCrisis, attacked science & evidence by muzzling scientists & gutting the census, & more. And that was all BEFORE MAGA. Poilievre will be much worse.

We got our Canadian election voter card in the mail this week, and will be taking advantage of the 4 days of advance voting that will make it easy. Remember, the polls look good for Carney, but DON’T be overconfident. Polls don’t win elections. Neither do pundits. TURNOUT wins elections. #VOTE

In case you were still wondering if Pierre Poilievre is MAGA/Trump, read this. This is an EXTREMELY Trump thing to do. And he’s getting global attention for saying he’s going to do it. This is worse than the science-muzzling Harper did. And Poilievre will go a LOT farther than this. #VOTE

Carney is an imperfect human with an impressive economics CV. I believe his intentions are sincere and he loves Canada. Poilievre is an unoriginal Harper creation that will sell Canada for parts. The purity political pundits can pound sand.

“I was a cabinet minister so I’ve already been cleared,” Pierre Poilievre said in response to reporters questions about the fact that he REFUSES to apply for the normal security clearance thru a security check. That was 10 years ago. What’s he been doing since then? He doesn’t even gaslight well.

So am I understanding this right? Alberta Premier Danielle Smith asked the Trump/MAGA regime (who are currently attacking Canada) to time their attacks in order to influence the Canadian Federal Election and benefit Pierre Poilievre and the Conservative Party? In an economic and sovereignty crisis?
