Poilievre has now been the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada for more than a year. He rode into the job on a wave of popular support from the anti-vaccine ‘Freedom Convoy,’ and has done everything he can since then to make that crowd proud.
He has pandered to conspiracy theories around the World Economic Forum by vowing to forbid his ministers and staff from attending the annual thought-leader hobknobbing event in Davos. He has made good by the anti-vaxxers by tabling legislation to ban COVID-19 vaccine mandates of any sort. He has winked at the anti-Ukraine camp by bashing a new Ottawa-Kyiv trade deal.
Vote strategically, this con man should never be allowed to govern.
You are so right. Voting strategically is key.
Fighting on the side of misinformation is horrible, let alone when it concerns a pandemic that continues to kill people to this day.
May he, along with the convoy “Queen of Canada”, the Nazi flag bearer in Ottawa during the stand-off and all their ilk get what they deserve.
But I have Trudeau-fatigue and I haven’t looked to see if other political parties exist.
