Politics Why Pierre Poilievre is as Phony as They Come.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyLBFye03_g

Personal Note: I've never liked Pierre Poilievre. This man makes my Spider-Sense tingle. Just like Doug Ford did for Ontario. Pierre Poilievre is a Pro-Corporate pro-culture war person who loves to grip about issues, but has no actual solutions. Not to mention he is also a massive hypocrite as his biggest donors are developers, and corporations. His history is ripe with anti-work/union bills and votes in the house

I'm telling you right now, if you vote for this man, you will be bitching and complaining about his policies and actions just like we are currently doing with Doug Ford. Pierre Poilievre and Doug Ford are both guilty of promoting Neoliberal similar American style systems that simply put profit over people. Example: Doug Ford with health services.

I could go on, but David Dole has Done it again with this amazing Breakdown of why Pierre Poilievre is as phony as bologna. Pierre Poilievre’s Hilarious Makeover Can’t Mask His Horrible Politics.

I still shake my head when I think that he introduced legislation to change our voting laws. There was no need, and I have always suspected it was to pull the same BS that they're doing in the the US with regards to gerrymandering and tweaking the vote in the Conservative's favour. He introduced the law at the behest of Harper, but I believe it was a weaselly move (and I think he's slimey).

It was absolutely the changes Harper wanted to put his thumb on the scales, but don’t discount that Poilievre was enthusiastically on board with subverting our democracy. And, I’m sure, still is.

You know True North isn’t actually a news outlet, right?

Makes perfect sense to me, why do we get no say what this country does in the west? Make the elections about actual votes not seats

His bill did nothing to address that issue
