Coyne is correct: It's not about multiple murderers, it's about an excuse to start eviscerating the Charter.
Opinion: In the U.S., defying the courts is a constitutional crisis. In Canada, it’s a simple matter of paperwork
Pierre Poilievre isn’t planning to use the notwithstanding clause to pass his crime bill. The point of his crime bill is to use the notwithstanding clause

In the middle of an economic & sovereignty crisis, Canada will choose a new leader.
Will we choose one of the most experienced & respected economic experts in the world, who calls for economies to be shaped by values?
Or a career politician who repeats slogans and won’t get a security clearance?

He wore the cheesehead hat in WI. Spent $20 million. Paid people to sign petitions. Paid people to canvas. Did million dollar giveaways. A rally. TV interviews. But I guess people in Wisconsin didn’t appreciate an oligarch trying to buy their civil liberties.

So Donald Trump tells us he doesn't like Pierre Poilievre.
Lol.
The MAGA team know that a Trump endorsement is a political death wish. Poor Pierre. He's their boy and has no respect.
Don't get fooled. He is their favourite sock puppet.

PM Carney at his press conference astutely brought up the fact industrial carbon tax allows more trade opportunities as EU and Asian countries demand a price on carbon for less restrictive trade. Says he's "thinking ahead" unlike Poilievre. The carbon tax kill is now an albatross for CPC. #cdnpoli
