Pierre Poilievre talks like a class warrior, but his policies serve the C-suite. A new book digs into the ideology and elite backing behind his faux-populist, anti-government movement.

Man, everytime this disaster opens his mouth I just want to see it shut.

He spews maga garbage and conspiracy. Cannot stand this man. As a country we cannot let this party win. While I don’t love the liberals, I can’t in good conscience for my country vote for the cons.

Ok maple magas, I’m ready for your hate speech now.

What bothers me more is the amount of support this moron has. How are there so many fucking stupid people here?

The Liberal government has now been around long enough that there is an entire generation that came into voting age under them. They don't know what it's like to live under Conservatives like Harper.

Just like the GOP voters in the US - Many just wanted a change to the status quo and were highly ignorant about what they were voting for and the damage that was coming. A growing demographic that votes GOP are young people that probably weren't even born back during the Bush eras and have no idea what a horror show they were.

That would work as an excuse the first time they voted Trump in but this is the second time they've done so

I wasn't alive to know what it was like living under Hitler, but I wouldn't be stupid enough to vote that in.

There are plenty of articles and videos out there from when Harper was in charge and how fucked up shit was. And the governments before him. There's also contextual information by means of looking at the USA and UK among others.

This is a very accurate statement. Unless you’ve lived through them, you have no idea as to what’s coming.

No one who can read is voting for pp.

They say their top issue is affordability, but it seems like they are taking about affording a third home or a new sports car. Anytime you get policy details, it's to benefit folks in the top bracket.

Pseudo, because we don’t actually find it to be of the people at all.
