did you even look at the results? Unless you want to call someone using a tag #peepee on twitter as an expert and sourcing his own tweet for a news story?

Trudeau is the only notable person who used the term. Hence Poilievre's retort to name names.

Can you name names?
Do I have to hold your hand for how Google works? You get a list of results and then you can click on these links to see what they have to say. It's pretty neat. It also doesn't mean the first result is one you trust.

Here's one from Dale Smith:

Quote:
One of Poilievre’s campaign promises is to be “anti-woke,” though he doesn’t define what that is supposed to mean. It’s a dog whistle to those who believe diversity and inclusion to be bad things—and more to the point, who believe they are leading to societal decline.

It's also mentioned by Adam Zivo of the National Post.

Quote:
Let me be clear: no one is saying that there is anything shameful in being straight. Rather, many believe that the term straight pride is a dog whistle for something darker — and while accusations of “dog whistling” may be grossly abused by progressives these days, it is apt in this case.

It's actually baffling you and Pierre haven't come across these stories, or similar ones about courting the far right. Am I on crazy pills here? Seems like it comes up all the time.
