Last week, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre called on Singh to pull out of the agreement.

Calling Singh’s statement a “media stunt” in a post on X, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre criticized the NDP leader for not saying whether he will vote non-confidence in the government at the earliest opportunity.

Conservatives moving goalposts constantly… colour me surprised until I’m blue in the face.

Poilievre is making a string of very strange political gambles. Doing the rhyming nickname thing, trying to look like a cool badass, going on a string of unusual, foolish-looking, public attacks against rivals.

If the Conservatives don’t do as well as expected in the federal election, I wonder what’s next for them, from a leadership, attitude, and policy standpoint.

This will be Gen Z’s first real federal election to participate in. I’m very interested to see their impact. Convention is to assume that the young won’t vote, but, life and livelihood for the youth in Canada has never been worse, at least in my lifetime.

If there’s a glimmer of hope I have despite the current >99% CPC majority projection, is that Canadian youth will look to the US, see how much the outlook changes between June and November to know what is possible with an engaged electorate and the appropriate leader to match.

What we’ve got to figure out here is either how we can remove FPTP or come out with a proper plan to vote strategically. Like look at this fucking “Leans Conservative” riding. A massive hunk of bullshit, I tell you.

FPTP needs to be stopped. The court needs to get its head out of its rear end and actually call this method of voting antiquated and no longer appropriate.

I hope they will consider carefully before voting. We don’t need a lot of edgy, kneejerk mistakes.

Young men have really lost their way.

I disagree. And also I don’t understand how your comment is relevant to the conversation. Making a non sequitur like this isn’t constructive. So, nice try but, you will not divide us!

Young Men have largely been abandoned.

There are many reasons for this, but it still hurts when you need help and kindly get told to get lost because we don’t have supports for men and boys.

To Poilievre it seems to be a game he needs to play as hard as possible to win. I bet he’s semi-open about his disregard for accuracy the moment the cameras are off.

Honestly, I blame the voters for not noticing.

You have to give credit, this is top shelf troll work.

I supposed you could say he set a trap and it sprung, but I think this more of the NDP taking a stand on the Rail strike arbitration issue.
