If that other Country won't let you, then rethink what you have here and what you're doing. You want to protest Canada, then by all means, do so peacefully and change Canadians minds. I'm also not for sticking our nose into what's going on between Israel and Palestine or Ukraine and Russia. Let the EU worry about it if they want to. You can't hate on the USA (or CAN backing them up) for being world police while not covering your payments, but then ask for help every time you're in need of protection. We can't even properly take care of our own military/defence for that matter. PP won't be going full DOGE because the majority of Canadians would go bonkers. Canada isn't similar enough to the USA to go full DOGE. Getting rid of some things isn't a problem, assuming they're the right things to shut down or shrink, but throwing everything out would be unacceptable. The nickname some give him of Trump Lite would be more so what to expect in this case. DOGE Lite. Trudeau was also part of that elitist group, and many Canadians finally realized he needed to go, like the rest of us who knew that in the last election. Mind you PP is leaps better than O'Toole was. The WEF isn't there for Canada's benefit. They're there for their benefit. Carney is on video complaining that he was unhappy that Trudeau didn't charge a higher carbon tax that Carney advised. The carbon tax he's been saying is over with, which is bs, because it hasn't been thrown out, only paused. Obviously so he can restart it, and potentially charge more again if he wins. Brookfield, is also big into housing, which would clearly be a conflict of interest for Carney, but he clearly doesn't care since he'll financially benefit directly from it. You should watch Jordan Petersons videos where he speaks with Jim Basillie (RIM BlackBerry) about the upcoming election, and well as Jordan's analysis on Carney's book "values". Neither of them look to be fans of Carney, and Jim's a big Canadian business guy. Well PP's mom was Irish, and then he was adopted by French Parents. The way he talks about his past it sure seems like he gets it and isn't anti immigrant, just about smarter immigration. Taking too many in while leaving the people already here behind, just flat out doesn't make any sense. You don't continue building a railroad without properly maintaining what's already been built. |
The protests are not for another country, they are against Canada's involvement in genocide. The protests are against the universities' ties with a criminal regime that's committing live streamed genocide, backed partially by us. They ask universities to divest from Israel.
Protesting in another country against Canada's involvement makes less sense. Isn't PP all about taking responsibility?
"Pierre Poilievre is a life-long conservative, champion of a free market, and fighter for people taking ownership of and responsibility for their own futures"
That's exactly what these protesters are doing. They don't want their country to support genocide.
But agreed, it's a good thing Trudeau is gone, he finally did something right by stepping down. Now only if Doug Ford was gone as well, oh well. I can't forgive him for all the people he killed during the pandemic (massive screw up with elderly care homes) and trying to sell the green belt to his builder buddies.
Doug then invested 6 billion in elderly care as penance?
The end result is locking decades worth of taxpayer dollars into an antiquated model of elderly care that’s failed during the pandemic.
Anyway in the end, Liberal values align closer to my values vs conservative. PP isn't changing my mind on that one bit. And while the Libs aren't great either, it's not the time for a protest vote with too many unknowns, ifs and maybes. Trump solidified my vote and I hope Canada doesn't repeat the mistake the USA made.
