@djfiander Reminder< Pierre #Poilievre's promise to cut “woke” includes government funding to Canadian universities and research.

"We deserve a government that won’t muzzle scientists and won’t silence research when it is not convenient for a political agenda.

If the Conservative Party failed to consider the consequences of such a policy, its leaders are dangerously incompetent."

Policy OptionsDon’t let Poilievre import Trump’s war on scienceThe Conservative leader’s promise to cut “woke” funding to universities and research echoes the disaster unfolding in the U.S.

Mr. #Poilievre's platform relies on the hope that his policies will cause a big economic boom, mostly in the **oil and gas **sector. Conservatives are counting on that boom raining tens of billions of dollars into Ottawa's coffers.

But it's not enough to pay for all the party's promises.
It's magical thinking, especially at a time when a **trade war **with the U.S. has clouded economic forecasts with fears of a recession.

@alessandro Precisely. 😡
"Media are obsessed with both-sidesing things until details have been blurred to oblivion."

Just heard a TV pundit say both parties are offering "basically the same platform" - so "Canadians are going to have to decide who they trust the most"

How come we never see or hear headlines like this from the legacy media? 🤔

"Poilievre wants to take the country in a frighteningly different direction from Mark Carney"

Legacy media is highlighting superficial similarities — both men propose cutting the bottom tax rate and cancelling the carbon tax — while downplaying the huge gulf between their very different visions for the country.

rabble.caPoilievre wants to take the country in a frighteningly different direction from Mark CarneyThere is a huge gulf between the Opposition leader and the Prime Minister and their visions for the country.

More and more, during this campaign, we have seen the true face of Pierre #Poilievre when it comes to the media: he's on the side of propaganda outlets such as the Rebel, True North & The Pleb Reporter. He cannot bear any scrutiny by legitimate reporters.

@AlisonCreekside

Such a deeply unserious government at such consequential point in our county's history.

There were 17 photos of Pierre and 5 photos of Anaida decorating the 37 page Conservative Party platform booklet.

There was one photo of Carney in the Liberal 60 page booklet.

Mrs #Poilievre appears in the Conservative Party ads as well.

I got a text message:
"It's Emma with Team Poilievre and the Conservative Party.

Can we count on your support to stop the Liberals from a 4th term in office?"

It's "Team Poilievre", with the party in the background.

From a bot called Emma🤣

The entire CPC is nuttier than squirrel shit and their platform confirms that...

#Poilievre's Conservative government would require holding a country-wide referendum before raising taxes.

But not before ramming through the Notwithstanding clause to tamper with the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
