    It’s insane that major political figures are allowed to blatantly and knowingly lie without any repercussions.

    Especially with modern technology, politicians should be corrected in real time whenever they regurgitate BS.

    He has no platform left because his only platform was “Fuck Trudeau”*. It’s sad, but hilarious to watch.

    Poilievre’s attacks on the carbon tax were also misleading, but they resonated with potential voters and stuck. Ditto for the weird hE’s JuSt DoInG iT fOr ThE pEnSiOn allegations about Jagmeet Singh.

    There’s no guarantee that these won’t stick as well.

      In fact, over the long term, they probably will. That’s one of the reasons we’ll see an election called early.

      With any luck, Pierre Poutine won’t survive the leadership review after losing the election.

      We know Pierre isn’t in it for the pension.

    All of a sudden the coward has a voice again? Crawl back into the hole you’ve been hiding in since Trump got sworn in.

    Is it a masterclass though? Or is he finding his old standbys don’t work as well in this case?
