The jarring echo in a recent Pierre Poilievre speech
theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
Whether it's plagiarizing speech, inventing fake people like Mustafa, or pretending real crisis like global inflation is on PMJT's spending, Poilievre, is about using props, not real people.

One of Poilievre's favorite props to puff himself up is blaming PMJT by #Gaslighting or straight out lying

PMJT is NOT decriminalizing drugs. BC is decriminalizing being in possession of small amounts of drugs. It's been unofficial RCMP policy for years!

Beware Pierre Poilievre and his simplistic solutions

"It’s much easier for him to create false binaries and paint the political landscape in exclusively partisan colours, and he shows no sign of deviating from this well-worn path."

'Irresponsible populist nonsense': Addictions minister calls out Poilievre over drug policy

"Bennett said the Liberal government has spent years building up harm-reduction programs the former Conservative government cut."

Contrary to Poilievre's fake addictions expertise that there's "no safe supply of these drugs” "Supervised consumption sites have reversed 41K overdoses since 2017 without one death.”

The siren song of Pierre Poilievre is about using props. It's not about helping people who need it!

"In other words, he doesn’t have a damned clue what he’s talking about. Or he’s hoping you won’t."

Ending another Poilievre rant from me, Canada isn't broken, Mr Poilievre and his Conservatives are.

My longest Poilievre rant was in January
"If Poilievre insists on continuing to preach in the desert in Quebec, that is where he will find himself on election night."
