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.
#cdnpoli
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!
#bcpoli #cdnpoli
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."

#cdnpoli #bcpoli
ctvnews.ca/politics/irres…
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.”

Fascinating historical: History of Drug Policy in Canada
drugpolicy.ca/about/history/
The siren song of Pierre Poilievre is about using props. It's not about helping people who need it!

Poilievre, Alberta & opioids:
open.substack.com/pub/paulwells/…

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

Good luck #abpoli! You'll *finally* need to accept AB is a landlocked Prov that will be subject to tariffs & responsible for BILLIONS of $s needed to cleanup unremediated abandoned wells & your toxic leaking tailing ponds.

Indigenous lands are not yours either.

Feds to study toxicity of oilsands tailings


"...the assessment of naphthenic acids and other substances on the list would begin in June 2025, a year after the government intends to publish the full list of substances for consultation."

@Swiftie01 🤣 zero respect on the international stage:

winner of Five fossil awards & in 2013 a "lifetime unachievment award" for "obstructionist behavior"

@Swiftie01 PET Legacy vs what exactly was Harper's Legacy? Scandals? Authoritarian control of his caucus? Cutting over 20,000 federal servants with Draconian cuts while hiring 3,325 spin doctors?


Image
Image
Image
Image
@Swiftie01 the cuts were truly Draconian & dismantled social programs built over generations. CPC complains about outsourcing & have yet to look in the mirror. the cuts to housing were brutal.

@LailaGoodridge @CPC_HQ @somerspsych More people are dying in AB from toxic drugs so stay in your LANE!

BC hasn't legalized drugs. Stop lying.

Why aren't you listening Ms Goodridge? BC's #SaferSupply program is helping & working while AB's deaths are up!

@LailaGoodridge @CPC_HQ @somerspsych thread by @KmarkovCTV


The toxic drug carnage in AB is Poilievre's & Ms Goodridge's preferred system of care for addicted Canadians yet their toxic drug deaths are way up while BC's are dropping & they want to stop #harmreduction & #SaferSupply? SHAME! threadreaderapp.com/thread/1791570…

@LailaGoodridge @CPC_HQ @somerspsych @KmarkovCTV "Deaths in March 2024 are down 11% from March 2023. That’s the fourth month in a row of year-over-year decreases."

I used to respect Chong but since he falsely claimed the faux scandal with JWR was a constitutional crisis, no more.

His Senate claim belongs to the Harper era that he served in!

I would truly like to know how moderate Conservatives are so easily radicalized?

#cdnpoli
The Senate renewal by the LPC was about fostering "...a less partisan Senate that is more independent...."


An independant arm's length advisory board was tasked with providing nominees & applicants based on "merit-based criteria" (screenshots)!

#cdnpoli senate-gro.ca/senate-renewal…

Chong conveniently forgets that many Canadians wanted the Senate abolished b/c of its highly partisan nature.

Despite promising less patronage appointments, Stephen Harper pushed 50+ to the Senate that consisted of many CPC staffers, donors & ex-candidates who lost their riding.

PM Trudeau vindicated once again.

Will it dominate the news cycle like so many of #PierrePoilievre's LIES or phony scandals cooked up Journalists with anonymous sources, or will it be a 1-day article?
#cdnpoli #ForeignInterference

Let's review.

Another good thread by @HeatherMoAndCo on #ForeignInterference

"...who is ALWAYS the beneficiary of #RobertFife’s stories based on leaked material? #Conservatives. Always.

In the Arar lies that Fife published, the beneficiary was #StephenHarper."

Why are Conservatives allowed to spew such BS without pushback from Journalists? It's not about blanket decriminalizing hard-core drugs. It's the possession of **small** amounts that won't mean an automatic prison sentence for an addict.

“There is currently no evidence to support a widespread diversion of safe supply drugs to the illicit market in B.C. or Canada.”
