Hey All - really don't post much here anymore, nor do I look at the DMs. Come find me on other socials. Until we meet again.โ๏ธ #cdnpoli
Not long ago, a bill tried to ban floor crossings.
Conservative MP Michelle Rempel Garner delivered a blunt, clear-eyed case for why thatโs a terrible idea โ and why she and her colleagues voted it down.
๐ข Good news!

This coming from the guy who literally had MPs hiding behind a curtain just one week ago because he was afraid he might accidentally trigger an election with all his rhetoric. ๐
Conservatives just keep digging deeper and deeper.
Great job calling it out, @BenCarrwpg.
Questioning the Prime Ministerโs loyalty to Canada because heโs overseas securing trade deals isnโt the kind of serious leadership Canadians expect.

Conservatives: โExtortion is a problem!โ
Liberals: โWe agree. Here are two bills to help fix it.โ
Conservatives: โWeโre voting against them!โ
Canadians donโt want a Christmas election โ they want a budget that meets the moment.
Budget 2025 strengthens our defence, speeds up nation-building projects, and boosts trade diversification for the economy of tomorrow.

This childish statement *actually* came from Pierre Poilievreโs office. Zero ability to self reflect and completely unwillingly to accept even the tiniest amount of responsibility for what happened. ๐คฆโโ๏ธ

Itโs been a horrible week for Pierre Poilievre as progressive MPs are one by one abandoning the Conservative Party of Canada.

There is no way for Conservatives to spin better than expected job numbers as bad news!
Canadaโs economy is strong and only going to get stronger and more resilient as a result of generational investments in Budget 2025! ๐จ๐ฆ๐ช๐ป

The Conservative MP benches were EMPTY for todayโs budget vote. If they canโt even be bothered to show up for critical House votes, how can they expect to be taken seriously as a political party?!
