Did you see the actual session ? Poilievre was asking about the request of the BC PM who wants Trudeau to stop the legalization of hard drugs in his province. As a result hundreds of people have died. On 3 occasions Trudeau did not answer the question at all and insulted Poilievre and suggested he was a white supremacist etc... (as usual). Visibly irritated Polievre talked about a whaco policy (on drugs) and a wacko PM. The President of the House (Greg Fergus, a diehard :iberal) asked Poilievre to change his statement, and he removed the term whaco and replaced it by extremist. This was not enough for Fergus, who expelled Poilievre based only on the intention of discrediting him. Check the Session, don't take my word for it. By the way, I have been voting liberal in every election for 20 years, never again
Yes 70% of Canadians want Trudeau out asap, it’s gonna be a majority win for the Conservatives in the coming election.
What Poilievre said was 100% correct, the PM is indeed a wacko. Now on a scale 1 to 10 with 10 being the worst on bad words, I would say that wacko is a two, somewhere close to spineless (Trudeau called Poilievre spineless). The reality is I never seen such partisanship from a speaker. Greg Fergus should do the right thing and step down. There is no way he can do his job credibly. Greg Fergus did a big mistake in booting Poilievre out of the house of commons, Greg Fergus should have left it at that when Polievre said he withdraws, but Greg Fergus went after Poilievre. What I predict, this incident will likely boost Poilievre's popularity.
And how about Greg Fergus? He lost all credibility as the speaker of the house, totally insecure and biased. I voted liberal all this time because as an immigrant it was the natural thing to do, and always had to live hostility from Separatists at school and at the Job. And I thought Conservative are bigots who represent essentially the banks and the oil industry from the West. What do you mean I am looking on the bad direction? On the so called left the ndp and the liberals are now the same thing
Pourquoi changer de sujet? À court d'argument sur l'attitude enfantine et stupide de Poilièvre?
You can say whatever you want. You are on a Forum part of an Escort Review Board. Can't you see the difference between what is said here and what is decent to say at a Parlement? I guess you don't make the difference. Think about it.
You miss the point replying to my question.
Agreed, some of the stuff starting to emerge from the Liberal camp is troubling. Not the extremist hyperbolic screaming that far right of Poilievre's group keep pouring out, but the dribble dribble of nanny state authoritarism. Methinks many of the problems the Liberals have are sourced from an incompetent bureaucracy; firing the coach because the team sucks never solves the root problem. I think we need more radical approach but the loony Conservatives are not it. I'll be voting according to the character of the person standing in my riding. It'll have as much weight as any other decision making criterion.
You missed the entire point. The issue is with Greg Fergus's partisanship, that makes him unqualified to do his job. Poilievre withdrew what he said, why did Greg Fergus not stop there? And you do realize this will only make Pierre Poilievre more popular. Just think about it.
Lets put it this way, anyone is better then the current PM who is a far-left lunatic. Poilievre has his faults but he will be a better choice then Trudeau (the lesser of two evils). But I do not support either one, I was just saying that Poilievre is a better choice. My vote is for Tim Moen of the Libertarian Party of Canada. What we need is a very small government, elimination of taxes, termination of all social benefits, ending foreign aid, ending corporate welfare, etc..
Out of subject. Poilièvre conducted himself as a Pure Idiot. You may try to diverge attention toward someone else. being Fergus, the King or Joe Blow. It is not relevant to this thread about poilièvre. if you want to discuss Fergus, create an other thread. Simple as that. Think about it!
I did a short research on this Tim Moen... Impressively unefficient guy...
Like Segmund Freud said "Most people do not really want freedom, because freedom involves responsibility, and most people are frightened of responsibility." It is wishful thinking, but the Canadian system is bipartisan just like the US, it is always Liberals vs Conservatives. People seem to think there is a difference between the left and right, in reality they are two sides of the same coin.
I said it many times, that prohibition never works. I am a firm believer in legalized drugs, legalized weapons, legalized prostitution, etc.. Why there is so much rampant drug use is because Trudeau caused a lot of poverty with his mass immigration policy. Usually single men are the most affected because they get no support from the government, apartments are so expensive that they end up in the streets. It used to be they would use in their own homes, now that they cannot find an affordable apartment they end up using on the streets. Poilievre's war on drugs explains why I say the left and right have more in common. Polievre is playing politics. Trudeau pushed for covid mandates, Poilievre starts a war on drugs. Ultimately it is peoples choice to use drugs, they must be accountable for their own actions. It is not government's job to play Grandma. On a final note, despite all that I said, Poilievre will be a big improvement. You just cannot do more worse then Trudeau, he really drove Canada into a hole and it will take decades to fix his mess. Poilievre will inherit big problems when he wins the elections which he will.
The issue is one of addiction to a substance in this case narcotics. One does not deal with the addiction by feeding the addiction at government expense and with tax dollars. It has led to countless deaths. BC is the current example. The medical establishment is up in arms as well as they bear the brunt of dealing with the carnage of addiction.
With this I agree with you 100%. I am against providing government benefits to anyone else, no one is entitled to someone elses labor. What Trudeau is doing is madness. I am for limited government interference, in other words no prohibition but also no safe injection sites, safe spaces, or government paid drugs.
Ok I’m gonna use the proper formulation,
