The guy who claimed Indigenous bands “asked for” residential schools has a seat in Parliament. Ugh
One result I'm not seeing get a lot of attention: Aaron Gunn won. The guy who front-the most extreme parts of Poilievre's social and public safety agenda (he directed the "doc" Vancouver is Dying) will be heading to Ottawa.

So you take the most vulnerable in society and put them in jail for being homeless.
No one dreams of growing up and being homeless. Tragedy or tragedies have led them there. We need compassion.
Where is PP putting all the people he is sending to jail? Our prisons are overcrowded already.
