    It checks out when you recognize that he panders to people who believe being slightly inconvenienced or inclusive of others is to have violence done against them.

    I don’t even think he believes this himself. He just knows the people who he wants to vote for him instead of Bernier believe it.

    How? Cause bumble fuck morons in rural areas have the reading level of a 2nd grader and can’t figure out when they are being lied to.

    Edit: to be clear, im not saying all rural folks are dumb. Im saying the ones who happen to be dumb got us into this mess

      I’ve lived in rural Canada and the majority of the people I knew were as dumb as a bag of hammers.

      I know city raised folk that are just as dumb. It’s all about being brainwashed to believe bullshit from the time they’re hatched. By the time they can make decisions on their own they all think they’re part of some magic christian hogwarts world.

        That’s the end goal of religion.

        Religion is poison and poisons everything it touches.

    Well, having been raised in a pseudo Christian home I did grow to really hate the religion. But somehow I don’t think that’s what he means.

    Jeez. You’d think the conservatives/PP would take a hint from the response most Canadians have had to Trump and American politics lately. Instead the idiots out there using an American-based tragedy to parrot American-Right wing talking points, and pretending like it’s applicable in Canada, and that Canadians should react like Americans.

    The liberals should just go full right-wing centrist. Let the NDP be the left-wing centrists. Have elections be between those two parties, instead of the conservatives… if only Alberta wasn’t so fucking stupid, with their idiot premier and book bans and so on. I’m amazed they haven’t kicked her ass out of office yet. But even if they want to be morons, itd be neat to see the rest of the country completely disregard/ignore the cons given the crap they’ve been spewing the last few years.

    Hell, its practically anecdotal evidence of interference by foreign powers. The cons have morphed into the republicans of the north. I doubt that was purely coincidence, it was likely largely funded by American interests. Sorta like how Danielle is an x-oil industry lobbyist, and most of the oil industry in Canada are US based companies.

    Sure, that’s why you never see any churches anywhere. Oh wait, you do - everywhere.

      Out of the pandering they do this is probably the most dangerous one.

      Christians aren’t inherently bad, but Christian who thinks the Bible says Trump is a good person is a real problem.

      Christian nationalism is making a real strong comeback and somewhat overtly so culture wise like clothing and media.

    Two of my grandparents and both my parents are survivors of residential schools run by Catholics … and I saw the last of Catholic run day schools when I was a kid …

    From my own and my family’s experience … CHRISTIANS are historically the perpetrators of hate-based violence in Canada.

    Anyone who thinks they are gods children are mistaking them for a bunch of brain washed idiots.

    Poilievre can get fucked.

      Being born in to a white Christian household I’d like to offer my own family perspective on this… yeah, it’s the same… we are the baddies. As a “christian” I have never once felt persecuted, only embarrassment of this new found Christian nationalism that seems to be rising all over. I’m done with the church entirely.

      Why does Pollivre think people want to whitewash history? Yeah, it’s not a good thing, but it’s even worse to try and pretend a bunch of bad shit didn’t happen. If you support this you are the problem.

      Shame on Pollivre.

    Can we put to bed the idea he’d have been harder on Trump when he’s literally reciting their talking points.

    Oh no won’t somebody think of the uneducated brainwashed cult members.

    Fuck your agenda of pushing your cult into politics. That shit belongs in the privacy of your own home and nowhere else.
