I mean, we are talking about the most corrupt government of all time. Why would he go through the trouble of a fake separation when he can continue to be corrupt, doing what he is doing now?

This ain't new, or isolated federally or to the Libs.

Go look at the list of judges appointed in Alberta in the last 5 years and i'll tell you who their friends were.

So this wiener, vying to become the next PM, doesn't even know that the CP has nothing to do with the CBC. Getting to the meat of his objections, the far left lily-livered CP had the audacity to report on facts, such as the words coming out of Pierre's mouth. These words, of course, are Pierre crazily ranting about the debunked WEF conspiracy and leaning hard into populist nonsense. Apparently that embarrassed him enough to post this inaccurate tweet.


Sorry, CPC, you've picked another dud.

Spoiler!

No it was a a bit of a pathetic and desperate hit piece. I’d start planning for some of the hand outs cut.

Hit piece, or hit the nail on the head?


Always trust a politician that lashes out at the media reporting facts. Top notch logic.

Always trust media that carries the PM’s water.

Carrie Fisher? He's recently separated and I don't think he's into dead people.

I know you are mentally stunted(and I'm really sorry you have to live like that), but I'll trust the words emanating from Pierre's mouth. You morons have to be the only people on the planet who hear someone speak, and then pretend it didn't happen. Sometimes I wonder how you even manage to post anything on the internet.

Like when Chrystia Freeland wrote about the WEF, among other plutocrats as she refers to them, as:

“Some farsighted plutocrats try to use their money not merely to buy public office for themselves but to redirect the reigning ideology of a nation, a region or even the world.”

Now of course she on the WEF board so it's all totes cool and good. But we are going to pretend that didn't happen as well.

How is talking to another poster like this all good?

Just bizarre. All this does is make you look foolish, Fuzz.

Yoho has repeatedly shown a lack of respect for this place, at some point you just call it like you see it.

Ah, you're both right. Yoho has shown exactly who he is, but at some point constantly interacting with a troll is indeed foolish

Just tell him Yoho is 5,000,000 times a better poster than he is and get it over with.

The problem I have with the whole thing, is that 10 years ago the WEF was viewed as a conservative entity, endorsing neoliberal values, playing to the market economy and supported by top right wingers, including Harper.

They haven't changed much on the whole, but have had new voices added which is taking things like climate change and things like the wealth gap seriously. Not because they are altruistic, but because the top free market minds see them as very real threats to the economy.

But the right needs a target, they always do. So Trump took up the mantle of lets focus on those guys (mostly because they represent the main stream values of free market economics) so I can give people to be angry at something else.

PP is doing the same thing, he is making up stories and rubes are eating it up that the WEF is anything more than it has been over the last 2 decades. The only difference now is that since they have ideas that focus on the climate suddenly they are a boogie man out to get everyone.

Its stupid political theater in order to sway the stupid people in our society in order to stir up anger.

I have no use for the WEF, I think its ideas with ESG are just makeup on a pig, but I also think they are just a forum and anything trying to paint them as a big bad cabal are either stupid, ignorant or deceitful.

Sure as #### can't disagree with that one bit

I take it as a sign that the people doing the yelling are not very happy IRL. Most posters on this forum never make personal attacks.

Calling people unhappy is still an ad hominem, it’s just not a very spicy one.

Does that mean you’re unhappy IRL?

I find it interesting that the same wingnuts who are wont to believe that the WEF is a cabal of (Jewish...?) robber barons who run a child pedophilia ring and siphon off their adrenochrome—or whatever it is exactly that they believe, it's hard to keep track/give a ####—are the same people who believe Russian propaganda about the invasion of Ukraine and can't see Vladimir Putin for the despot he is. It wasn't long ago that Putin and the Russians in general were seen by the right as mortal enemies. Now they're best buds.
