Guys I am already so bad at being on vacation lmao
Quick question for the Conservative Party, based on the fundraising email sent out today:

What are you hoping to achieve by telling your supporters you “MUST win” the recounts…when those ballots are already cast?

Stop soliciting donations by implying any party can impact the recount results!!! 🤦‍♀️

The Conservatives are basically making an election rigging claim in their most recent fundraising email.

Yes, really.

CBC News first reported this, and I’ve also independently confirmed it — because the Conservatives sent this email straight to my inbox.

The Conservatives just came dangerously close to making election rigging claims (and I've got proof)

"Canada has what everyone wants. We're a confident nation that celebrates our diversity, that believes in and practices free speech, that respects the rule of law, that has a vibrant democracy," Carney said.

One thing that I was thought was revealing about the divisions within Canada:

When Carney acknowledged Poilievre's hard work on his campaign in his victory speed, the crowd of Liberals cheered.

When Poilievre mentioned Carney in his concession speech, there was loud booing.

Poilievre’s actual announcement today is his pledge (which is in the Conservative platform) to get rid of Canada’s electric vehicle sales mandate.

The mandate requires that by 2026, 20% of new cars sold have to be electric (100% by 2035).
Pierre Poilievre is in Halifax this morning, where he’s once again mischaracterizing a report about a “terrifying” future as a prediction rather than an exploration.

He’s done this three days in a row now.

Holy fuck. I literally searched for the word “woke” in the platform live on my twitch stream last night — it wasn’t there.

And now….

Great catch, Ted.

2) That a policy report published on the government’s website is predicting Canada is currently on track to become a dystopia. The report isn’t THAT bleak and its authors made it VERY clear it is not meant to be seen as predicting the future.

Poilievre would require a referendum for every federal tax increase???

First, a referendum would be incredibly expensive (electoral reform would have cost $300 million, for example)

Second, good luck ever raising taxes again (including on the rich!)

Poilievre misrepresenting Mark Carney here. It was Poilievre’s planned invocation of the notwithstanding clause — a federal first — that he called dangerous, not the policy itself.

But at least this sound bite is hilarious.

“Do you know what’s dangerous?MURDER is dangerous.”

Poilievre reiterates his promise to defund the CBC, but also keep Radio Canada (which is also CBC, just the French arm) funded.

Once again, not really sure how that would work!
