    Thank God Pierre Pollivre wasn’t elected or this would be a much different story.

      He’d bend over and ask for Canada to take more. Nothing I’ve read from him sounds like a proper leader of this country. He’s as whiny as a toddler like the neighbor’s ‘leader’. Calling that thing a leader is laughable, he couldn’t lead a train on the track unless there was a pile of gold in sight.

            It wouldn’t surprise me to find out that the conservatives in the Battle River-Crowfoot riding ripped PP a new one for taking the seat in the first place.

            They toed the line … but only once.

              I would not want my MP to be a guy with zero connections to the community, who is only begrudgingly there because it’s safe, and will spend all good time living two provinces away.

        I’ve got some bad news for you. The only reason he isn’t our prime minister is because Trump happened.

        An UNcomfortable amount of your fellow Canadians actual support that guy

      At some point during the speech this popped in my head:

      I just cannot imagine the world of shit we’d be living in if he had won the election. Even since, he’s contributed absolutely nothing to the political discourse in this country. And he’s changing seats, again.

      (And I know Draper is an asshole, I just mean the whole vibe is what came to mind. I don’t think I’ve heard Carney even mention Polievre since letting him have a seat with the by-election).
