I was watching CBC coverage of some press conference Poilievre was doing, going on and on about the need for an "axe the tax election" (??). Someone asked Poilievre what he was doing to fight against Trump's proposed tariffs and Poilievre says he's not the prime minister, but if Canadians give him a mandate, he'll fight for their interests, etc.
Then the CBC commentator cuts in and says "It should be noted that there are many people who aren't the prime minister who have decided to adopt a "team Canada" attitude and are doing what they can to make the case against tariffs."
The bluntness and absurdity I just found hilarious.
It’s so weird that Danielle Smith and Pierre Pollievre are breaking ranks. It’s like their entire philosophy is “Fuck Trudeau”. Shows who’s side these fucks are.
Even the other conservative premiers are supporting Justin Trudeau.
It's not weird, their interests are not the same as your interests and certainly not the same interests as the average Canadian or Canada as a nation.
I'm glad someone is calling him on some of the bullshit.
Note that the weaselly fuck didn't answer the question about what he would do. I bet he has the beginnings of an inkling of what he could consider doing if he's prime minister -- or what was Mr Trump's status for his any-day-now healthcare master plan from 8 years ago?
