This trade deal allows China to sue Canada in secret. We are beholden to China for 31-years.

Pierre Poilievre will simply oversee the sell-off of the rest of Canada.
It's what conservatives do, and now they have the opportunity to fully embrace the far-right ideologies that they formerly denied. Canada is heading into a perfect storm of right-wing bullshit...

And if we put a conservative leader leader at the helm one who believes Adolf Hitler was a Socialist. He will eagerly join Elon Musk & Donald Trump's ballet of bullshit.

The wealthy amongst us are always talking about how we moved too far to the left.
Bullshit.
Was Canada more right or left in the 80s. More social services, more unionization, and free parking at the open public hospitals. Crown Corporations like Cannaught Laboratories...
1/4

In the 1980s, Ontario Hydro was the largest construction company in the world. An Ontario Crown Corporation was the largest construction company in the world. All workers were unionized. GM in Oshawa had around 30,000 unionized workers. Workers had jobs, not gigs.
2/3

Then, the era of Free Trade or, more accurately, corporate mobility. This encouraged a race to the bottom mentality, wages were cut unions attacked and gutted, manufacturing was moved to lower pay jurisdictions owners did great
workers not so much.
We lurched to the right.

Conservatives like to pretend they are for the working class.
Look at Ontario - yes many working class people are struggling financially.
Do you think paying for Private Healthcare will help?
Forcing them to purchase Private Healthcare Insurance will that help?
1/7

Massive Property Tax Increases due to the Provincial government not allowing Municipal gov's to collect fee's from developers and instead putting that financial onus on individual property owners; will that help?
We keep electing politicians that represent the capitalists.
2/7

These conservative politicians will say whatever they have to to sell themselves to workers. They'll complain about taxes that benefit our society insisting that we are overtaxed. All the while making life more expensive for workers. Tax cuts benefit the rich and no one else.
