  • And nearly half are “not concerned” about Trump annexing Canada. What boulder are these people living under?

    Of course not. A lot of them are salivating at the thought. Polievere is literally running the Republican playbook right now; the CPC voters are either voting CPC because they just check that box and don’t think about it very much, or they’re actively repugnant people who look at what’s going on in the US and unironically think, “I wish that were me.”






  • I have no way to respond to this both honestly and in a way that doesn’t either inherently insult your intelligence, or call you out for what I believe you are. So, on the off chance that I am mistaken about what your account is, apologies.

    Your citations do not say what you think they say, and the conclusions you are attempting to draw from them are incorrect. You are, in no uncertain terms, using true facts to make dishonest, or simply painfully stupid conclusions. And I think your two month old account which has almost exclusively posted CPC propaganda exists to do this on purpose. Consider building a real platform focused on the needs of Canadian, instead of playing identity politics all day and seeking to tear down political opponents. But, if they did that, the CPC would be a fundamentally different party, so I clearly am asking for too much.

    Stop insulting the intelligence of Canadians everywhere with these inane attempts to mislead us, and fuck off.



  • Your “citations” do not say the things that you claim they do.

    Yes, Canada has an issue with migrants workers being treated poorly. The conclusions you draw about this are at best misinformed, and at worst downright lies.

    The CPC is using housing issues as a scapegoat. We can support our immigration markers. We have failed to do so, but the answer isn’t to halt immigration; it’s to build homes, and enact laws and policies to ensure those homes go to Canadian citizens who intend to live in them. But, as always, conservatives would rather blame brown people than solve problems. What a fuckin’ twist.

    Mhmm. Everyone is shitting on Nintendo, but the reality is their games are literally keeping up with inflation. The problem is that our wages haven’t kept up with inflation, and the cost of living has, at least, kept up. In some cases (rent), it’s grown faster than the inflation of everything else.

    Don’t get me wrong, Nintendo is tone deaf for making this decision now, and I suspect they’d still make billions with a $15 price increase rather than a $30 one. I’m not defending them. But the picture is a lot larger than them.








  • Huh, colour me surprised. Here I thought right-wing money had bought up any journalism trying to sell itself as “independant.”

    Either way, the headline is right: we shouldn’t count him or the CPCs ability to garner support through spreading fear, hate or misinformation as “out.” It’s important that we continue to view him as a legitimate threat to free speech, and potentially even Canadian soverignty, right up until elections close.
