Poilievre is blaming safe supply policies for all of BC’s drug overdose deaths. How does he explain the record-high number of those deaths in Alberta, which has the very policies and approach he says he’d implement as PM?

There are a lot of reasons why Pierre is a slimy git, but the way he utilizes and twists ordinary people’s tragedies to score points on Trudeau is really up there at the top.
A cry of despair reminding us that the fight for the planet's future is a dangerous one. In a world where misinformation on #ClimateChange spreads like wildfire, journalists risk their lives to bring us the truth. unesco.org/en/days/press-… #WorldPressFreedomDay #PressFreedom

I’m really looking forward to hearing Melissa Lantsman and Jenni Byrne explain why lobbyists are bad. It’s not that I don’t agree — but they might have some ‘splainin to do first.
Pierre Poilievre: Memo to corporate Canada - fire your lobbyist. Ignore politicians. Go to the people. nationalpost.com/opinion/pierre…
Poilievre is blaming safe supply policies for all of BC’s drug overdose deaths. How does he explain the record-high number of those deaths in Alberta, which has the very policies and approach he says he’d implement as PM?
A chief goal of “axing the facts” is to help oil companies cope. Someone really must help the poor victimized oil companies cope. Bring it home!
‘…..to help oil companies cope with federal clean fuel rules’ 😡 Too bad @premierbhiggs is more interested in helping oil companies cope than the citizens of NB.
All of Poilievre's 'tough on crime' shit beyond proven ineffective was tried by the Harperites and invariably struck down as unconstitutional.

@PierrePoilievre "Trudeau doubled rent"?! Can you show us where Justin Trudeau's name appears on a notice of rent increase? Unlike you, he is not, AFAIK, a landlord.
Look, I went to Spain. It was a climate change discovery mission because the rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain. We wanted to find out why. The Spanish government had me over there regarding a project codenamed “My Fair Lady.” Considering we have no plains, we’ll be fine.
The pattern is clear at this point: The National Post regularly pays racists to write racist things because it appeals to racists who eagerly consume the content, generating profit and protecting the settler capitalist status quo. It's a closed circuit.

My son: "I'm going to have to put my phone in a basket next week, even though I keep it in my bag." Me: "That's because of Ford. He wants to distract us from things like the lack of repairs at schools." My son: "Governments are stupid." Me: "I don't disagree."
Randomly thinking about my cousins and how they were able to raise three kids and live in a big beautiful house where we held family gatherings and provide their kids with extracurriculars with jobs like working in a meat department at a grocery store and a P/T school bus driver.
Since a few people have asked me about my ongoing legal slapfest with Ezra Levant, I may have some news at some point, but recall that a major issue in Ezra's defamation lawsuit against me involved whether he turned over "100%" of donations to his 2016 fundraiser to Red Cross.
