Battlefoot Poilievre is much the same as Carleton Poilievre. He does a great disservice to Canada as Leader of the Opposition when he can't do anything but rant about how awful he thinks Canada is.
Clickety-click, I'm sixty-six. How did I get this old? Lefty-wonk, woke, SJW and all the other stuff that good people are. Affiliated with me, myself, and I. Only.

🔥🔥🔥 Carney on Poilievre - “I honestly believe he disdains much about the country. It’s pretty awkward for him now that the country is coming together. He’s trying to find a flag to wrap himself in & play patriot. The last refuge of a scoundrel, the last time I checked.” #cdnpoli
...and what the fuck does "bone-petite" mean?
As a Brit, I was appalled to hear ordinary Americans saying that they didn't want their tax dollars spent on other people's healthcare. It's a ludicrous statement, where do they think their insurance premiums go (apart from the shareholders' pockets)? Civilized countries have socialized healthcare.
The United States is the only place on earth where poor people shun unions, free healthcare, and free education because the rich tell them to.
Poilievre’s unwillingness to get a CSIS clearance now is a full on five alarm fire and beyond a curiosity at this point given Modi’s latest salvo. I wouldn’t even tell Poilievre the password to my Pokémon account now and trust him. #cdnpoli
This kind of appeasement of the anti-refugee lobby never works, it just makes things worse for refugees and their families.
Thou shalt not end vaccines. God will not save you from plague. The Middle Ages should’ve made that very clear.
If we will never be a Socialist [sic] or Communist [sic] Country [sic], then why are you giving billions of dollars to farmers to make up for losses from your stupid tariffs (SOCIALISM) and having the US government own part of Intel (COMMUNISM)?
Hot? I think not. (I'm a poet and I don't know it).
That's because Ed is a good bloke. Or he use to be. Out here in the colonies we don't get to hear about Ed much.

The RIGHT ear of supreme leader was struck by a bullet and healed up like nothing happened in a jiffy because they are God's chosen one. The same person's RIGHT hand had a bruise and has not yet healed up. Did God get tariffed or something this time? The puppet media is not allowed to ask RIGHT?

The owners of the media are desperate not to upset Trump, most likely for fear of losing his favor, and quite possibly tax breaks and/or other sweeteners. It's one of the calamities of the time that the press is entirely in Trump's pocket.
New in PN: "By the time you read this, the White House may have put out a Labor Day statement. It will no doubt offer an effusive tribute to Trump, who in his infinite beneficence has delivered workers a utopia of prosperity. But back on Earth, he's the most anti-labor president in modern history."
Oh, Andy Borowitz. What a gem you are.
Most Canadians share this sentiment.

I don't care if you want to read the Bible. Just stop reading it to the rest of us. Thank you... 👀
Thank you, you've saved me ten tedious minutes.
The man who has put up the most England flags in Manchester was caught in 2016 trying to smuggle 4 Vietnamese people into the UK. Now he is out of prison hanging up flags. Any old grift.
Ouch…
Relations with Canada and other countries will not revert to the way they were after the Trump regime is no more. The damage has been done.
It's not about flags, it's not about Asylum Seekers. It's about racism. It's about getting a large bunch of idiots so riled up about it that they will vote only for the person pushing it. Hitler did it, Mussolini did it. We have been here before.
CBC have fallen into the trap of believing all points of view are valid, and their job is to report them, unchecked and unverified, all in the interests of "balance". Hold politicians feet to the fire, that's your job!
“CBC, stop giving Pierre Poilievre unchecked airtime. Fact-check, demand answers—don’t be a microphone for propaganda. Journalism exists to hold leaders accountable and report facts.” Do your job— 🇨🇦Canadians’ democracy depends on it #CDNpoli
Question: Why did US put big tariffs on India despite major national interest in cultivating a strategic counterweight to China and trying to isolate Russia? Answer: Because the US president lied that he fixed India-Pakistan and India wouldn’t go along with the lie. (Seriously, that’s the answer)
It doesn't take a genius to work this out. Unfortunately Johnson is not a genius, not even close, and his pronouncements are evidence that he's in the pay of the pro-gun lobby.
I’ve heard from a couple of messaging strategists now that people shouldn’t post so much about COVID19 vaccines because it’s “divisive”. I am here to say that I do not give a damn what is popular. I will never ignore scientific evidence for the sake of expediency, and neither should anyone else.
live your life in such a way that millions of people don’t joyfully await your demise
Moses Johnson continues to argue that Americans are more crazy than any other nationality. That's nice.
CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @mluckovichajc)
Black is white, up is down, and two plus two equals fifty. They are trying to create an alternate reality. It's utter madness..
Let that sink in.
“…I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it.” My latest in @thebulwark.com www.thebulwark.com/p/honoring-a...
Of course she failed, there was never any evidence to begin with. It's performative bollocks with this crowd of Trump ball lickers.
Yes is no, black is white, up is down. You're fucked America, totally fucked.
One consistency with Poilievre is that I can’t think of anything positive he’s said about Canada. Even when he was a cabinet minister under Harper. Not. One. Thing. #cdnpoli
Scared, micro-dicked cowards.
Hey Moses, Thy Shalt Not Bear False Witness. Read it on one of your religious billboards, or outside a school. It means "Don't Lie". How are you going to reconcile your lies when you meet your maker?
The damage this man has done is incalculable.
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
Heather Honey? That's her porn name, isn't it?
Learn to decipher the codespeak.
Can't believe that in 2025 we have to be telling people that vaccines are safe and slavery was bad.
This lazy, dangerous, irresponsible propaganda is almost too much too post. But I need you to see the lies for what they are. Let’s blame everything possible except the guns flooding our streets and the depraved politicians who put them there. Fewer guns = fewer shootings, literally everywhere.
If this oleaginous haircut thinks local crime rates merit a federal military intervention, then he should be leading the armored column down to his home state of Louisiana, which is one of the worst in the nation.
Are we really going to drown in six inches of water? The central far right claim - that our problems are caused not by those with power and wealth but by utterly powerless people (asylum seekers etc) - is obviously and pathetically wrong. Yet millions, once more, are floundering in that puddle.
Americans have to drop this BS idea that freedom relies on you having a gun. Other countries manage freedom without the guns, and they don't have children murdered at school and in church.
As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.
Moses, it IS the guns.
Prayer is just a salve for the person doing the praying. It obviates the need, in their minds, to actually do anything.
Until Americans get over the idea that freedom is reliant on having a gun then things will never improve. Other countries have opted to limit that "freedom", and the evidence shows that it stops children getting murdered. It's a simple idea, but one that too many Americans can't grasp.
New rule. A parent may only propose removing a book from the school library only after reading it in its entirety and delivering a book report to the librarian. Until then no discussion shall be entered into.
Praying is a salve only for the person praying, no one else. Imagining that it's helping someone else is just bizarre, insane even.
Yes, but mixed in with a big dollop of cowardice, fear, and gun lust. This idea that an American must own a gun (or two) to be free is complete BS. They're feeble minded weaklings, the lot of them.
That's obscene.
It's ridiculous isn't it. Nigel Farage can negotiate with the Taliban, but he can't talk to his constituents in Clacton. Because it is too dangerous.
Guns and religion. Those aren’t solutions, they are the problems.
Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.
Why does she bob up and down all the time? Is that her indicating that she's lying?
Pierre Poilievre is the single largest waste of tax dollars in all of Canada's history. #CPC #cdnpoli
i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do. Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.
Until Americans understand that freedom is not reliant on owning a gun, nothing will change. Other countries get it, why not America?
Other countries have crime and mental health challenges. What they don’t have is more guns than people. Only America has that. Enough with the excuses. It’s the guns.
The truth about Reform UK is very simple. The only changes they will make are for the worse. Immigration is just the lie they like to use. Really they are here like Donald Trump to turn the UK into a fascist state and everyone into slaves.
If someone tells you there's nothing we can do about gun violence beyond thoughts and prayers, remind them: —Gun laws in other countries have prevented mass shootings —More guns don't make us safer —A majority of Americans want gun reform We don't have to live like this.
It's what they, the MAGAs, voted for. Isolation. They knew what they were voting for they said.
Please make this moron's head explode by repeating this simple fact. Brexit meant the end of our extradition treaty with France and the start of the Small Boat crossings.
It's not just Republicans, Americans in general are consumed by the idea that freedom relies on everyone having a gun. It's BS of course, places that rarely have mass shootings also have tight gun laws, and limit "freedom" to stop children being murdered. Americans are wilfully ignorant of this.
She is correct. Nothing is done. Every single time. Listening to media pundits claiming it's incomprehensible that it has happened again is a joke. Of course it did. The USA allows it - 100%. No one is safe anywhere. It's gun culture & access to guns. #GunControlNow
Media ownership has always been key to the issue, and editorial policy will always reflect the owners' bias. In Canada, the CBC's bias is a bit odd and you have to wonder who influences it, because it certainly isn't Carney judging by the huge pass they give Poilievre.
Limit access to guns, that's what you have to do.
It's possible ... hear me out, here …. It may well be that these people lie their asses off whenever they exhale
Don't mention the guns!
They dress it up as "freedom", but it's fear, cowardice and gun lust.
NRA: “Guns don’t kill people.” ME: “They certainly seem to help.”
Why, you might ask, do the BBC and Sky News, casting their editorial guidelines to the wind, keep giving massive airtime to the far right, while shutting out leftwing voices? Don't their bosses understand the likely consequences? Only one explanation now remains. They do. And it is what they want.
He opens his mouth and shit pours out. His base believes it, his closest enablers lick it all up and ask for more. It's hard to fathom that this is happening in the USA, it looks more like North Korea or Iran.
A family of craven cowards.
Limit access to guns. The US is suffering from an epidemic of gun lust that's covered with a thin veneer of "freedom". Look to how other countries do things.
