Seems like once again Pierre saves the Liberals. Look like there’s at least 1 more Conservative that will cross over of not more.
I really don’t know how Conservatives even attempt to defend this guy.
Just to save people a click.
On the contrary, implementing a system of proportional representation would be the ultimate nation-building project.
If you could start putting the video length in the title it would be real nifty.
If they knew they could get away with it many would have done it sooner. Ford led the way with this in Ontario since he’s spammed it almost casually and still gets re-elected easily. Another clear consequences of people being indifferent and sitting out elections.
Which is the whole thing about this. If this goes from just a Ontario thing to a Ontario and Alberta thing. Then this is going to be a Canada thing soon enough.
Last week I posted about how CBC used a far right guy to justify Pierre campaigning to override the Charter of Rights.

Same guy. https://macdonaldlaurier.ca/cm-expert/stephane-serafin/
Also since OP get kinda pissy if I don’t directly address the article. This is a shit take.
After a decade devoted to identity politics and policies, Canada now finds itself with a stagnating economy, a military in dire need of rebuilding, and a diminished ability to influence world events that directly impact its citizens.
This is the guy he posted yesterday:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Cooper_(journalist)
In September 2024, Cooper published a report in The Bureau claiming to show video evidence of Bill Majcher, a former RCMP undercover operative accused of assisting Chinese intelligence, meeting with drug trafficker Tse Chi Lop in a Macau casino. Journalist Nury Vittachi noted that the purported video footage actually was from the 2014 action-comedy movie From Vegas to Macau, starring Chow Yun-fat.[13] The article was subsequently retracted by Cooper.[14]
Bill 2 sets financial penalties of $500 per day for individuals who defy the back-to-work order and up to $500,000 for the union per day, if it doesn’t comply with the legislation. The bill also suspends bargaining at local tables until 2028.
If the other unions back them like what happened in Ontario in 2022 when Ford did that same this could end quickly.

Indeed.
There were reports of it taking between two and a half and five minutes to process each voter. “All those individual little steps did add to the additional processing times,” said city returning officer Kate Martin.
MRU political scientist Lori Williams. “We’re hearing stories of people being in line for up to two hours, and that some people left the line and didn’t vote at all because the process was too onerous. That’s terrible for democracy.”
What we do know is that it added up to a lousy 39% voter turnout, the lowest in nearly two decades.
It probably not even “China bad”, the person posted a article that was straight up China getting more oil from us since the American trade war as some type of economical manipulation. It’s pretty much Canada + China then they add it some super low effort comment.
I prefer to read more then post and I don’t even mind the bias. But this stuff isn’t even good rage bait. There’s 2 accounts from the same instance that started posting that stuff recently.
Also this whole China is a thread and bad. No shit, much of the entire western hemisphere on the same page for this before Trump made himself and America an arguably larger threat.
The stuff posted by OP recently and his takes has been wild. From Kovrig Natpo op-ed then his wife’s op-ed. Yesterday it was a guy saying we have so much leverage in Canola we could probably get China to build some BYD’s here.
That was a talking point in 2024 without Canola tariffs being involved. We’ve somehow regressed an entire year back in time on the topic.
Another heavily bias right wing source from OP.
For example:
But no amount of hurried missions across the Pacific or the Atlantic will fill a hole the size of America. Like it or not, the U.S. remains our dominant market and indispensable customer.
That is why Canada needs multiple lines of engagement—federal, provincial, and even personal. Only then do we have any leverage. Only then do we have the luxury of choice.
And this is where Smith enters the picture. Whatever one thinks of her politics, she has carved out a distinctive role in U.S. relations, more visible than most premiers and even some federal leaders.
That same soft power was on display months earlier at Mar-a-Lago, when Smith posed for photos with Trump during a fundraising event.
One of the founders.
Also gold mines of the dude as usual:
Just adding further retort of what the agents are:
Link to actual report: https://www.oag-bvg.gc.ca/internet/docs/parl_oag_202510_01_e.pdf
It’s 39 pages but there some interesting stuff in there. Seems to come down to mismanagement with some budget subtext.
I’d personally like to see a even deeper audit internally.
Relation to head count and SLA overtime.
Misplaced priorities
Budget issues
Also to address the right wing headlines. It really isn’t what the general agents is trained for.
- We found that often the accuracy and completeness of responses were lower when non‑account-specific questions were asked (Exhibit 7). For example, an account-specific enquiry could relate to an error code when accessing MyAccount, checking the status of a caller’s application for the Canada Child Benefit, or requesting copies of documentation. Non‑account-specific enquiries could relate to eligibility criteria, general tax matters, or obtaining contact information for other areas of the agency.
It’s kinda funny that guys like Pierre avoided traditional media due to them being hard on him. But the worse sound bites from Pierre and Danielle Smith was when they go mask off in these platforms that cater to the right wing.
The whole thing of trying to get him to apologize feels like a they’re down playing a 43 year old who’s been in politics for 2 decades deliberately trying to stir the pot.
I wouldn’t say they’re slip ups, they made a very deliberate push to APPEAR less partisan at the cost accurate portrayal of events. Even the titles have gotten a bit on the click bait side.
I still consider CBC to be the best large scale news source in Canada and generally decent. But there’s some serious issues brewing.
The outcome seems insufficient given how the circumstances was presented. Also coming from these type of places, a decent leader would have told the 2 idiots to cut that shit out before it got to that point.
Truro Police Service security camera footage obtained in August by CBC News shows two officers leaving the detachment in pouring rain — one is carrying a banana. The pair enter an unmarked police vehicle.
As the vehicle drives through the adjoining parking lot, the peel is tossed from the passenger-side window. It lands on Bowden’s truck.
…
Bowden and a Truro police inspector both said the banana peel may have been part of an ongoing workplace joke about slipping on a banana peel, according to submissions in the Police Act investigatio
Also stuff like this has been why police unions is the single union I refuse to support.
Union declines representation The Atlantic Police Association, Bowden’s union, declined to represent him, saying it is a prosecution against another member. In June, the labour board said there is sufficient evidence to demonstrate that there may have been a breach of the duty of fair representation.
Just to add a example for this although I posted quite a few in the past want to see more.
During the election Pierre said he’d override the Charter of Rights https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/pierre-poilievre-notwithstanding-clause-1.7509802
This end excerpt.
And to be clear the reason the Supreme Court overturned it was because it was a violation of the charter and violating the charter for the duration of the Parliament is still violation the charter.
There was also a thread of the same guy defending the infamous Peterson quote about women just being holes, but it looks like he deleted it. This just suffice as to what the guy is about although you could just look through the guy’s twitter account.
Just to point out for at least a year CBC has essentially done what the author suggests where there’s a article about how bad something is but then slips in a paragraph at the end with some MAGA or MAGA adjacent source that tries to justify it with little substance.
In the linked article this one references it says that target is in 10 years. But also Canada hasn’t had a very good track record of hitting the NATO spending targets.
I also imagine Carney by probability is long gone then.
Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada and its NATO allies have agreed to substantially hike their defence-spending target to five per cent of annual GDP by 2035.
Will also point out the Liberals is suppose to table the next budget in Nov.4.
From my interpretation of looking around a bit on the topic of lead in food and especially supplements. There definitely a decent amount of companies that don’t seem to care enough to know.
Some companies could go from low to high heavy metal contents and for them it’s luck of the draw since they aren’t that on top of things.
We really need a proper regulatory network for these things.
This style of politics where you only have to be better than your plausible opposition will end poorly for Canada especially when the bar is set so low. See America for reference.
I’ll also add C2(more power in guise of security) and C5(more power in guise of economy) that people have problems with during a Liberal cabinet wait until Conservatives are in power and they abuse them.
