Your deputy leader of the Con/Republican Party of Canada. Oh in case she tricked you by wearing a camo instead of a red one, that is a MAGA hat... lol

You can really play this game all day.

Except one of these is candid and just two people with no connection at a festival.
One is someone proudly portraying their allegiance.


Good bye.

Mixed up that one and the beach one. That one is a random photo at a music festival where they just both happened to be in the shot.

I like the idea of getting rid of the many self destructive policies implemented by the liberals that have caused the abysmal economic conditions and lack of economic growth in Canada.

I like the idea of what's best for Canada driving decisions rather then environmental extremism and other extreme left wing ideologies. I like the idea of getting Gerald Butts out of our politics. I don't like Carneys many conflicts if interest, both financial and ideological.

This is all the things you don’t like about the Liberals, not what you like about the Conservatives.

Have you folks really just nothing to stand behind? You can’t even figure out how to provide a real answer to a simple question.

I had a feeling that would be the route of the answer but I tried my best

Good bye.

And is Bergen still in politics or even relevant to this election?

[TheIronMaiden]

A big strike against the CPC is that they do not have a costed platform despite begging for an election the last 18 months.

Anything they say is just lip service to me.

[BigThief]

Carney not acting like a politican with out any experience as an elected offical isn't exactly a negative. Listening to his interview with Scott Galloway and his full complete answers knowing his deep experience in world and Canadian economics was a breath of fresh air.

Pierre Polliverve has been campaigning for three years now and still can't give answers beyond empty platitudes

I like the idea of when asked what you like about the CPC specifically, you still can't really point to anything specific, just that they are gonna get rid of Liberal policy.
No counter policy, or what a solution might look like, just a simple "Get rid of Liberal ideas"

The only thing that comes close to an actual policy "like the idea of controlling immigration to match jobs and services", is then followed up by a dumb talking point about the century initiative, which at this point, has been so misconstrued that when folks like you mention it, your objection carries about as much weight as a typical conspiracy theory.

I understand you're whole persona here is that you never really answer a direct question, but let me ask you this:

Seeing as you are opposed to the Century Initiative, enough so that it is the reasoning behind one of your points, what specifically about it do you object to?
Also, can you point to where the Liberal Party cites it as a motivation for their policy. I can't find that anywhere, I'm curious, you obviously have seen that, I would really appreciate you showing me where I can find that information.

https://www.centuryinitiative.ca/

There is the information you need. Give it a look.

I disagree that the CPC plan will improve GDP more than the Liberals' plan. I understand that there are some things they want to do that will help in that regard, and I don't deny that. I question whether significant cuts to government spending will work against this.

The Liberal platform allocates about $19 bn annually to improving the military. Carney is serious about making Canada more independent, both economically and militarily. The move to the 2% GDP target is necessary, but also a priority, which I'm glad to see.

I'm also concerned about Poilievre constantly talking about inflation. In my view, that's fighting the last war, and inflation is a non-issue at this point in time.

To be fair, before Trudeau stepped down, the shoe was on the other foot where anyone arguing for voting for Trudeau is he's not PP.

So maybe people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. But congrats, after 10 years, the Liberals found a candidate that's at least shown a bit of competency. It just took years of voting for a complete dufus to get there. The conservatives are still behind in that regard.

You want me to say it another way?


I like that Pierre Poilievre will cancel c-69, cancel the carbon tax, defund the CBC.

I like that Pierre Poilievre will match immigration levels to housing/jobs/services and is not influenced by ideologies such as the century initiative.

I like that Pierre Poilievre is open to building infrastructure for getting LNG and other resources to market.

I like that Pierre Poilievre is serious about climate change by wanting to displace dirty fuels such as coal with clean fuels such as LNG, rather then taxing Canadians to change the global weather like Carney wants to do.

I like that Pierre Poilievre isn't affiliated with extremist Gerald Butts.

I like that Pierre Poilievre isn't influenced by Brookfield, WEF, UN, Century Initiative, GFANZ, Bilderberg group, China, Eurasia Group, Etc. Etc. Etc.

I like that Pierre Poilievre hasn't been endorsed by Steven Guibeault and isn't the god father of Christia Freelands kids, and wasn't an economic advisor to Trudeau.

I like that Pierre Poilievre has actually lived in Canada all his life, especially the last decade.

I like that Chinas interference in our election is not in favor of Pierre Poilievre as China wants Carney to win since Carney has a history of doing business with China.

I don't like that the liberal team remains mostly the same under Carney with only a few new faces who also have affiliations with groups like the century initiative.

This is totally fake garbage, Pierre Poilievre always gives detailed answers to questions, it is Carney that avoids answering questions
