Pierre on the side of genocide. Way to go. The cons are enemies to Canada
PP will remembered as a genocide supporter.
PP will be remembered as a copycat genocide supporter.
We’re not going this way, he’s going into the trash heap where he belongs on April 28.
Bruce Fanjoy must take away corrupt Skippy’s seat in Carleton.
In order to support a friend of mine lives in this riding — she’s been braving Ottawa weather going door -to-door for Fanjoy, despite being in her 60s — I donated the max allowed to Fanjoy.
Ok fine. The “in support” is only half true, the other part is that I’m a petty dork who would take tremendous joy in being a small part in seeing PP lose his own seat.
Edit: I just refreshed my Home feed and saw your Fanjoy post there. Great work.
I'm debating whether to donate to that riding campaign. The gap seems large. Should I or would the money be better spent on the overall campaign?
If you're calculating best possible return on investment, nationally or in a more competitive riding would probably be the most useful. The national ads have been pretty high quality so far, such as the Mike Myers one, and many of the competitive ridings are ones that were completely unexpected and have few resources.
But also, life's too short to always just be about the best return on investment. I was happy to help support my friend, she was absolutely tickled pink to be able to tell her fellow volunteers that she brought in a donor. And yes, because doing something petty can feel good too.
I did my part!
That would be so wonderful if he did!
It will surely reflect well on PP when he and his racist Nazi party go down the toilet in 15 days from now.
PP may wish Canada were the 51st State - where he might otherwise get away with fascist impulses. But that's not the case.
Don't count him out just yet. They're posting pretty strong numbers. Make sure to organize and vote.
He has gone back up in the polls. We mustn't get complacent. Everyone who doesn't want fascism in Canada, and who values Canada's continued existence as a country, needs to vote, and get your friends to vote, and make sure MAGA PP doesn't get in.
Is this possible in Canada? I mean, is it as easy to do that in Canada?
Genuinely asking.
Probably not as things stand. Our political and judicial system is a little more robust against being abused by a small group of people than the USA's. But I wouldn't rule out Poilievre deciding he needs to break the rules like Trump does, and I don't think we should give him the chance to find out how that goes.
This might be enough to mask the Lib stop-the-steal snafu. 😂
