Andrew Coyne 🇺🇦🇮🇱 Hmmm, for the next election Canadians will have to choose between democracy and Conservative… oh wait…

Awesome 👇

In a nutshell this is why a demagogue's message requires serious/sober reflection. There is a reason why constitutional traditions need protection. Equal rights are not toys that can be taken away by some squalid pol plundering our constitution. This is Canada. Equal means equal.

Today (May 5) in #NLMusicHistory ...

In 1953, The Evening Telegram ran an ad which announced that following six sold-out shows at Pitts Memorial Hall St. John's, THE McNULTY FAMILY had added 2 more performances. YIPPEE!

Bonnie James🍀🫐 Arlene Churchill- To Each Their Own. Con O'Brien #McNultyFamily

Pierre Poilievre Back, oh, 18 years ago, my spouse was walking through a park in Montreal and got stung in the foot by a bee or whatever. His first thought was 'Oh, shit!' - because he thought he had stepped on a needle.

Shit happened before 2015, rage clown.

How sheltered is Pierre Poilievre?

No plans this aft? Come join me at the Scrabble Tourney at the Lantern just before 2PM. Really nice people and for $20 you can play, munch on cookies and squares for a good cause with the Terra Nova Grannies. Re-tweets welcome!

He is the king of green screen too!! The photoshop skills of the Conservative Party need some help.

Paul the is no depth to low for a Conservative Party Pierre Poilievre robot. They spend their days being paid to troll citizens as they try to farm rage amongst their base to keep the abhorrent narrative alive. Seamus O'Regan Jr has guts & brains. These #Wackodoodlers won’t deter him!

How about telling them that the rebate puts far more money in their pocket than the tax takes -- and the party promising to 'axe' it is implicitly promising to make them even poorer?

“By changing our approach, we can help New Brunswickers get money back in their pockets in the form of quarterly rebate cheques from the federal government.”

- Premier Higgs, barely a year ago, talking about his decision to opt into the federal carbon pricing system.

Hey Canadian women: Don't think Poilievre won't try to roll back abortion rights. Just look at how many members of the Conservative Party are anti-choice. arcc-cdac.ca/conservative-p…

Or his leadership race pitch that he was “running for prime minister.”

This is the flipside of populism: the cult of the leader. “You need ME to protect you from THEM. And I need maximum power to do that. I can’t be hemmed in by laws and Charters and whatnot.”

Notice, too, the heavy use of the first-person.
If “I” pursue your policy “I expect” you to do this and that.
Like his speech the other day about using the notwithstanding clause to pass “my laws.”

“If I do pursue your policy, I expect that you will continue to advocate for it with those same Canadians in those same neighbourhoods until the policy is fully implemented.”

Pretty explicit.

“When they start telling me about your ideas on the doorstep in Windsor, St. John’s, Trois-Rivières, and Port Alberni, then I’ll think about enacting it.”

Who “on the doorstep” was telling Brian Mulroney to enact free trade before he proposed it?

Andrew Coyne 🇺🇦🇮🇱 Brian Mulroney wasn’t behaving like a twass for years before that election.

Different ballgame entirely.

The pifflesnipe has an empty cupboard. He doesn’t even have the badge of service because he’s done squat in 19 years on our payroll.

Message to corporate Canada: stop shilling for the Liberals and start shilling for the Conservatives.

Hard to read this as other than a warning to get on board.

And a declaration that he won’t get out in front and lead on any policy but wait until business has made the sale.

Roddy 🇨🇦 “My laws”? I’ve never ever heard a PM or a potential PM utter those words.😳

Antonio Foix 🇮🇹🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈 Pierre Poilievre And abortion.
And MAID.
