How about campaigning for better healthcare access and mandatory maximum hospital wait times? Maybe controlling grocery profitability? Housing developer profits?
*checks notes*
Ok, just mad about a rebate.

Don’t you mean mandatory maximums?
Oh geeze, you’re right. Changed!
If this is going to be a carbon tax election, we can get the wildfires, droughts and floods to campaign against Poilievre?
Given this and next year should be El Nino years, wildfire smoke across Canadian cities would be campaigning against him. Just picture a pipsqueak rally in a city under smog cloud.
Yet I imagine the Kelowna area will still vote for a Conservative to be our representative next election, so many people with money and other conservative types in the area. I was constantly checking updates as one of the fires were within like 1-2 km, it was very stressful and I wasn't ever in an evacuation zone. Had everything ready just in case we had to go right away. Granted there was many buildings between me and the fire but it hit pretty fast, so I may have been overreacting but I'd rather be prepared than caught off guard. Will definitely vote for people that want to curb our environmental impact myself but feels like pissing in the wind when looking at vote counts after the election.
They'll blame individuals for lighting fires, and campaign for a water market for "efficient" water usage.
Personally, I'd like a climate change election... possibly coupled with hospital wait times and chopping up monopolies.
#harperPuppet says what?
Don’t insult Harper like that
Harper had to reel him in for trying to fix elections
Isn't Harper the guy who signed away our sovereign mineral and resource rights to a hostile foreign entity?
Is that why we wanted to rename a landfill the Steven Harper Dance and Supper club?
Well, we did get two pandas. At least there's that.
So you see how someone that was too crazy for him might not be someone you want to say is just like him
You'd have to be psychotic and suicidal to not implement a carbon tax.
Alternately, greedy and short-sighted.
There's a metric fuckload of money to be made before the shit really hits the fan. What these shitheads don't realize is that money won't save them once you can't breathe the air, drink the water, or grow the food.
Can't eat dollars
In the mind of a common sense conservative, money will always equate directly to power. It can not fail because that would mean everything has failed.
Time to put voiceovers of Pierre chanting 'axe the tax' on video of homes burning to the ground, orange air, and terrified people driving down a road with forest fires raging on both sides.
I honestly would have let the Liberals get away with not implementing the Carbon Tax if bringing it in would become the turning point for Conservatives to win the next election. But it's hard to really say this with any certainty, these morons would have found something else to latch on. Capital Gains, Immigration, CCP, fucking dental care even.
That shirt has serious don't dead open inside vibes
