The Canadian who’s least credible, least trustworthy, least likeable & most likely to sell out Canada to Trump —Kevin O’Leary— doesn’t want us to vote for one of the most credible, reputable economic leaders in the world.
Carney’s DEFINITELY the right choice.

By not getting his security clearance, Poilievre is putting Canadians at risk. You can count on him to always put party over country.
That's Poilievre. But it’s just not Canada.

Interesting to watch CBC's Front Burner podcast sneak up the charts in Canada. It's currently fifth on Apple podcasts, one spot ahead of Joe Rogan. Tenth on Spotify. Top Canadian show on both.

Note that Americans were *already* shifting toward sedans (and away from pickups) before Trump started messing with the economy.
Tariffs and layoff fears will catalyze that trend.

To me, “Canada First” sounds selfish and isolationist, even without its shady history as a slogan. Appropriate for Pierre Poilievre.
To me, “Canada Strong” sounds confident, prepared, and inspiring. Appropriate for Mark Carney.
Poilievre only has one talent— slogans. Carney even beats him at that.

When I tried to purchase an ad taking on Pierre Poilievre FB said it didn't mean their community "standards."

You know which Canadian has done nothing useful to support Canada during Trump’s trade war crisis?
Pierre Poilievre.
Not surprising considering his record supporting Trump, MAGA & the extremist Trucker convoy, attacks on media, connection to Stephen Harper, and refusal to get a security clearance.
