Pierre Poilievre, Canadians don’t need to be lectured on our good farmers by your party who sold the Canadian Wheat Board to the Saudis and who signed the FIPA agreement with China, handcuffing this country for over 30 years. You yourself were in govt, you rage-farming hypocrite.

"Trump is a useless tool.
95% of our trade is covered under CUSMA. The 35% on the remaining 5% trade will be diversified away from the US & we’re going to support those industries by building Canadian infrastructure to kill the U.S. economy."

Poilievre voted against establishing a national food program then flew to Montreal for a $1700/plate fundraiser.
He later showed up to the HoC drunk around 1 AM waving around bags of McDonald's for his CPC Caucus.

“Canada Proud, which is tied to Pierre Poilievre, ran disinformation campaigns targeting Mark Carney during the 2025 election campaign. According to The New York Times, Canada Proud spent at least $250,000 on misleading ads in the lead-up to election day.”

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.
That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.
So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.
