Mr.O'toole when you state you're pro-choice but agree to allow conservative members to reopen the abortion debate Canadians realize you're using this loophole to avoid personal accountability. When you state climate change is real but still support industries that
directly contribute to it Canadians realize you don't have the ability to understand simple scientific truths. When you state it must be a top priority to improve the relationship between the government and Indigenous communities but refuse to acknowledge
The United Nations
Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples including your view to pass a Freedom of Movement Act that will make it a criminal offence to block a railway, airport, port, or major road, or to block the entrance to a business or household
in a way that prevents people from lawfully entering or leaving. Indigenous Canadians realize your top priority is to extract resources and not to improve relations between the government and Indigenous people.
Your views on protecting statues have also clearly demonstrated & strengthened your intentions are as empty as your platform. A Prime Minister must have the ability to prioritize and listen to all Canadians needs over the needs of corporations. You're not ready to be a leader.

This is what being a Canadian means to me. I always vote in the manner that benefits people. My family and I are very fortunate, we don't need the national dental care program or many other programs that the govt provides but I do know that many do, and for me, supporting ..
.. those that need them wasn't even a question. Especially since it really isn't a sacrifice to have a few dollars from my paycheques to help fund these programs. When you lift or help others out of poverty/ raise their standards of living, as a society, we all benefit from..
.. that. You see, imo democracy wasn't meant to be used to amplify the mentality of me me me, it's meant to empower US. Please don't miss your opportunity to make a difference. Unfortunately at the moment, Pierre Poilievre's "common sense" conservatives have been tirelessly ..
How to disprove Pierre Poilievre's slogans with one long post. Pierre hasn't hidden the fact that he won't hesitate to legislate cuts to services and programs that Canadians are depending on, he's even stated that he'll use every mechanism possible to do so which includes the ...
... notwithstanding clause (section 33). Fyi section 33 allows Parliament or the legislature of a province to derogate from certain sections of the Charter, namely section 2 (fundamental freedoms), sections 7 to 14 (legal rights) and section 15 (equality rights). Now that we've..
.. covered that. Onto his favorite slogan, Axe the Tax. Let's just assume the CPC forms govt after the next federal election. He's already stated the first thing he'll do is Axe the Tax. Fun fact about the carbon tax. Provinces that had absolutely no plan to address emissions ..
Pierre Poilievre has been playing a dangerous game ever since he assumed the CPC leadership role. He's never once considered the possible ramification of encouraging the Ottawa occupation, his Youtube "Men going their own way" tags, or how he attacks his opponents. Don't tell ..

Here's what I've learned while serving 2 decades of my life in the Canadian Armed Forces. It didn't take long to identify those who didn't work well with others, those people were very opinionated about what's broken (planes, ships, equipment, personnel etc) but never ..

For those people who are outraged that they don't have access to news from Meta and Instagram. Do you know why they removed Canadian news stories from their platforms? They refuse to pay Canadian news outlets for their content/ receiving fair compensation for THEIR work.
The online news act it designed to protect Canadian news outlets. Fyi you still have access to news despite Pierre's conservatives rhetoric, all you need to do is go straight to the source. So much Conservative outrage simply because the govt refuses to succumb to Meta's threats.
Here's some interesting facts:
*Bill C-18 is modelled from a law in Australia
*Meta made threats that they would block AU news
*They left AU for a week, then they came back
*Since then more than $190 million has been paid to Australian news outlets for the use of their content.
Here's what Pierre Poilievre's Conservative Party is selling:
*They don't believe in climate change (Party delegates voted not to recognize climate crisis as real)
*They don't support Indigenous rights (They oppose UNDRIP)
*They don't support that the government must take action to close the unacceptable gap in pay between men and women (VOTE NO.12, 42nd parliament)
*They don't condemn Islamophobia and all forms of systemic racism and religious discrimination (voted against M-103)
*They don't truly support women's bodily autonomy rights as the party supports the use "conscience rights" for doctors and other health-care workers as a loophole to refuse to participate in, or refer their patients for abortion.
