Thank God Pierre Pollivre wasn't elected or this would be a much different story.
We would already be the 51st state.
He'd bend over and ask for Canada to take more. Nothing I've read from him sounds like a proper leader of this country. He's as whiny as a toddler like the neighbor's 'leader'. Calling that thing a leader is laughable, he couldn't lead a train on the track unless there was a pile of gold in sight.
He lost so bad he got a pity seat and is causing his party to collapse
The pity seat isn't good enough for him, they're going to run him in another seat.
I don't know if that means he simply hates it there, or the party plans on dumping him and returning that seat to a party faithful.
It wouldn't surprise me to find out that the conservatives in the Battle River-Crowfoot riding ripped PP a new one for taking the seat in the first place.
They toed the line ... but only once.
I would not want my MP to be a guy with zero connections to the community, who is only begrudgingly there because it’s safe, and will spend all good time living two provinces away.
I've got some bad news for you. The only reason he isn't our prime minister is because Trump happened.
An UNcomfortable amount of your fellow Canadians actual support that guy
SupportED. Not so much anymore.
At some point during the speech this popped in my head:
I just cannot imagine the world of shit we'd be living in if he had won the election. Even since, he's contributed absolutely nothing to the political discourse in this country. And he's changing seats, again.
(And I know Draper is an asshole, I just mean the whole vibe is what came to mind. I don't think I've heard Carney even mention Polievre since letting him have a seat with the by-election).
PP at the world economic forum:
GLUCK GLUCK GLUCK GAH... We need to support our allies in seizing Greenland GLUCK GLUCK GLUCK
The Gluck is the sound of him throating cock, right?
Correct!
Dudes to small to cause a gluck
slurp
🤣
He wouldn't even have been there (nor any other CPC MPs). He wants to be Canada's Trump so bad but he's so bad at it that he's somehow even less likable than the actual demented fascist child molester himself
We'd probably invade Greenland ourselves if he did lol.
Thank God he didn't win.
