Covid caused high prices globally from a supply chain freeze up. Neither 'Trudeau' or any carbon 'tax' caused it. Trump was elected BECAUSE prices went up and USA doesn't even have a carbon tax. Pierre Poilievre is OBVIOUSLY blatantly LYING to us.
1/4
Covid also gave us a condition providing us a parameter of who are the nastiest, dumbest and most horrid of the human race - those who oppose with fury the greatest invention and saver of lies humankind has ever come up with - vaccines. 2/4

The lies and stupidity behind #PierrePoilievre 'common sense' Conservatism.
First off, it's a RW populist phrase used by the extreme RW in the EU as well;
It suggests 'gut feelings' override data, empirical evidence and scientific findings.
They don't. 1/5
The illusion that gut feelings override reality is what his 'common sense' device is all about. That and making nitwits feel good about themselves; grade 9 chemistry class flunk-outs running amok calling Dr. Tam 'stupid..' Poilievre essentially grooms a cult of stupidity. 2/5

THREAD @cbcnews and pseudoscientist @niknanos 'poll tracker shows Erin O'Toole 'ahead' #Elxn44
Is that a joke?
50% of Canadian voters are women.
Sit down, put your feet up, grab a beer, glass of wine; HERE IS HOW Harper and Erin O'Toole treated Canadian women, 2006-2015.
1-
THEY cut abortion funding from maternal health for developing nations; a smack in the face to women and women's rights.
Cut the Aboriginal Healing Foundation (hurting centres that focused on providing support to abused women, such as Native Women’s Shelter of Montreal)

'Conservatism These Days' Thread
First comes the 'populist' salesman who appeals to emotions, not facts. In fact, they tell us facts are fake and cannot be trusted coming from smart people like scientists or teachers, who aren't trustworthy, like a populist pitchman is.

Now tie in some macho-man jingo and nationalist/patriotic short, emotional mumbo-jumbo phrases that endlessly repeat keywords like TAKE BACK, GOD BLESS, I'LL FIGHT for this, that blah blah .. FREE SPEECH, SCHOOL CHOICE, JESUS, FATHERLAND, MOTHERLAND, PAST GREATNESS etc.

The Kelowna accord was a $5 billion @liberal_party agreement to improve the quality of health and education for Canada's First Nation's Peoples. Stephen Harper and Erin O'Toole's Conservative Party canceled it in 2006, immediately after they took office.

In 2010, Stephen Harper and Erin O'Toole's Conservatives cut funding for Sisters in Spirit; an internationally praised organization leading investigations into 600+ cases of missing and murdered Aboriginal women and girls.

Quick thread here where as National Citizens Coalition President, Stephen Harper (who is idolized by Erin O'Toole) in 1994 speech to American Republicans explains to us all what Canadian Conservative Reform Partyism really is, and I QUOTE..
1/ 'you (American audience) are probably more knowledgeable about Canada than most Canadians.' (denigrates Canadians)
'Canada is a Northern European welfare state in the worst sense of the term, and very proud of it ' (denigrates Canadian Parliamentary democracy) ..

Canada's Conservative Reform Party is and always been based upon promoting a destructive Trickle Down economic system of inequality and prejudice founded on (Straussian) deception, as such it really has no place in today's society. Their real goal is to establish an aristocracy. 2/ And because Canada's Conservative Reform Party goal is aristocracy, economic inequality and regressive taxation are requirements that they use to achieve it. The logical extension is clear; Reform Party Conservatism in Canada is the very antithesis of democracy #cdnpoli
