Let’s not forget the damage that the @CPC_HQ did to science when they were last in power.

Just to correct the record of this lobbyist, Canadian farmers wanted to buy the wheat board but Stephen Harper sold it to the Saudi's. Then he negotiated the FIPA deal (in secret) with China. The legacy of the Harper years lives on.
Face palm moment... In this Battle River-Crowfoot by-election both the Liberals and thr NDP have said they want to look at bringing BACK the Canadian Wheat Board. 🤦♂️
I was proud to be a volunteer/support the Conservative Party when Stephen Harper was PM and brought grain marketing freedom to Canada. A part I have since had the honour of serving as an MP for in Parliament and am proud to support current CPC leader Pierre in this by-election. 🌾
Quick history lesson... up until 2012 it was illegal for a farmer to sell thier own grain, only the Government was allowed to. And the penalty was prison time. Oh, and only applied to farmers west of Ontario. 🔒
News flash... we dont need to go back.

🚨 Ontario has underfunded public schools by $6.3 billion since 2018!
That’s not a typo.
That’s the cost of chronic neglect & underfunding of public services.
Per-student funding is still below 2018–19 levels—while school boards face rising costs, growing needs, and impossible choices. The TDSB alone is short nearly $1 billion.
This crisis didn’t appear overnight. It’s the result of a broken funding formula and the Ford government who refuses to fix it 😡
🎓 If we want strong public education, we need real investment and NO MORE CUTS!

A man who said parliamentarians should serve no more than 2 terms is taking over the safest blue riding imaginable, from a democratically elected MP, to save himself from sinking after serving seven consecutive terms & finally being voted out by citizens in his own riding.

NEWS from many polling offices across #CanadaElections2025 are a number of Poilievre supporters are being asked to leave for breaking the law - wearing and taking election paraphernalia in
He should demand what he says he supports, the rule of law

Poilievre campaign has given more questions to Sun’s Brian Lilley than all reporters with CTV, Canadian Press and CBC combined
CBC has not been able to put a question to Poilievre since March 27 hilltimes.com/story/2025/04/…

Premier Ford is putting thousands of jobs at risk by underfunding colleges & universities, ignoring experts, and hurting Ontario—just like the Liberal gov't before him. It’s time to invest in education: a 20% funding boost, tied to inflation, to secure our competitive edge.

The PM is debating you in French on April 16 on @RadioCanadaInfo TVA wants to be PAID to carry a second French debate. Broadcasters have NEVER been paid for broadcasting a Leaders Debate. Nor should they. You won’t let media on your bus but you will pay them to carry a debate?!!

"A Global News analysis of 50 of Poilievre’s most recent YouTube videos showed that they included a tag — hidden from viewers, but not from the videos’ publisher — used by a misogynistic online movement."
