This guy sounds good on the surface, but
if you listen, he talks like the government owns our freedom and can restrict it as much as government deems “wise and necessary.” ANYONE who believes that a wearing a face mask as a government requirement is to be shunned and scorned. Is this really the best Canada can do? Are there no true believers in freedom and liberty left in politics? Had high hopes for the guy, but peel the layers back and he’s simply a toned-down Trudeau.
IMHO as a Canadian citizen.
I don’t think the truckers would be on board with the guy if they listened to what he really has to say. Surface freedom, and freedom controlled by government in any way, shape or form, is not freedom. It is a con.
Any time someone says “I don’t mind wearing a piece of cloth on my face…” it’s time to flush his sorry ass down the toilet. It reveals ignorance and subjection to government edicts on a grand scale. Find someone else…
He’s the best alternative we have Boomer
He can be Influenced when necessary
He’s still a breath of fresh air
Even YOUR savior Trump is flawed…Loves Vaccines…didn’t grant pardons for Assange …many other faux pas
I hear you. And I never thought of Trump as my savior.
And would have a hard time voting for him next time around.
But push comes to shove, and the only alternative is another Dem fascist, then he would get my vote.
Still hate it when someone brags about being for freedom “except I have no problem wearing a piece of cloth on my face” when masking has been debunked for a mighty long time. wonder why they can remain so damn ignorant, and cannot even see the contradiction in the same paragraph they are speaking!!!
And no need to be perfect, just consistent would be a breakthrough.
SB – Did you listen to the entire interview or stop at the one comment?? Personally I found Poilievre’s policy positions to be refreshing!
Like you, however, I have no vested interest in WHO specifically gets elected as long as they can lead Canada back to FREEDOM and away from the totalitarian policies of the Liberals as mentored by the WEF! Who better do you recommend as the leader that can remove Trudeau forever?
Heck, I don’t have an alternative. The only one that comes to mind was crucified 2,000 years ago.
Yup, Poilievre’s positions are a huge leap forward in Kanada. In fact, I never thought I’d hear it coming from a politician’s mouth in the frozen north.
I still hate it when ANYONE says they are freedom-bent, BUT…
So, a much preferred alternative to the crap you folks have put up with for decades. But he still needs to be chastised for contradicting himself. Masks have zero to do with freedom. See if he agrees with you. If not, I’d only vote for him while holding my nose.
It’s funny. It’s almost like I’m hearing (not to put words in anyone’s mouth, mind you) – We’ve been robbed of our freedom so long, I’ll take this guy who “allows” or “gives us back” 80% of our freedom.
Freedom is not taken away, it is given away. And once gone, it can take a very very very long time to get it back.
“Those who ask for freedom are already slaves. Free people demand freedom, and finally we take it. We never ask for what is ours. Take it.” Michael Yon
The U.S. permanently lost it’s freedoms in three giant steps: the failure of the Confederate secession; the establishment of the Fed; the creation of the income tax and IRS. We will NEVER recover freedom here.
You appear to have a chance in Kanuckastan. Hoping it works out for you all, I cheer for you every day. Then I might make use of my Kanadian passport after all!!!
