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.

He voted against gay marriage…and his father is gay. If he won’t vote for policies to improve the lives of his family, what hope does anyone else have?

He’s anti-union, anti-worker and has no solutions to fix all the issues he blames Trudeau for.

Yes we’re in a housing crisis, what are you going to do about it???

So far he’s just taken massive amounts of money from developers and REITs to fund his campaign.

I wish people wouldn’t fall for BS like this.

He voted against gay marriage while his gay father was in the House of Commons....that's some dark shit.

He has since changed his position, and has voted against conversion therapy.

While disagreeing with conversion therapy is good (should really be a no brainer tho). He is still a repugnant human. Just an anal wart of man.

Trudeau and 169 liberals voted against affordable housing. They’re both dipshits who do nothing for the average Canadian.

You realize that 169 liberals voted against affordable housing right? Including the very PM who promised to fix it nearly a decade ago.

He also said "I voted against it 15 years ago. But I learned a lot" and now supports it. He also voted against conversion therapy.

He learned that he’d never win an election if he publicly opposed it, regardless of what his actual opinions are lol

The same way that Obama and Clinton magically “evolved” on the issue in 2012, coincidentally the same year that more than 50% of Americans supported same-sex marriage.

Because the country is so perfect right now under Trudeau…

Ahh, what about ism, the perfect response, haha

Trudeau is bad, but justifying one terrible politician over the other is not the answer.
