  • “All politicians are incompetent, it is just a matter of degree.”
    Trump could have left Canada alone, but no, he had to label our Prime Minister as a governor of the American 51st state. Threaten tariffs. Say
    the border is artificial. He could care less that by doing so, he elevated the Liberals in the
    polling.

    The overwhelming reason that the Liberals have increased dramatically in the polls is not because Trudeau has stepped down. It is mainly because Canadians have rallied behind the PM due to Trump’s behaviour.

    The only way we will have a small conservative government is if Poilievre wins a majority.
    Otherwise, the left will form another coalition.

  • Not that it matters to Canadians, it is generally thought that Poilievre is francophone.In actuality, he was born to an anglophone girl in Saskatchewan.
    He was adopted by a francophone family in the same province, who later moved to Alberta.
    By high school, Pierre had largely lost his French language and later had to relearn most of it.
    He is very good at it, but Quebeckers can recognize that it is his second language.
    His half brother was born to the same girl and also adopted by Pierre’s adoptive parents.
    Pierre is on good terms with all his relatives, whether birthed or adopted.
