Involved, informed long-time Vancouverite. Compliments when deserved but don’t expect softballs — we really need to do a lot better.

@kinsellawarren They’ll lose because Canada knows that the CPC doesn’t believe Trump is a lunatic. And Canadians will do what they have to in order to make sure the CPC doesn’t get power.

[better cities, PLEASE! @OVancouverite]

@kinsellawarren Or viewers have a lot better perspective on what’s really important in this election…

[better cities, PLEASE! @OVancouverite]

@PierrePoilievre Have you applied for your security clearance yet?

Didn’t think so.

[better cities, PLEASE! @OVancouverite]

@kinsellawarren It wasn’t a great moment, agreed, but to suggest acting that way will end his career seems to forget that Poilievre has been worse with the media for years, and he’s been given a pass with a U.S.-style double standard. Maybe he needed to do it with an apple?

[better cities, PLEASE! @OVancouverite]

Nope, dumb take, sorry. Carney has “spent his life” in the private and public sector, aka in the real world. He has steered economies during crisis and is considered one of the best real-life economists alive.

Embarrassingly bad false equivalencies are a big part of our problem.

[Mo Amir 🪬 @vancolour]

If we’re being honest, Poilievre and Carney are equally out-of-touch dweebs on opposite ends of the out-of-touch dweeb spectrum.

Landlord Pierre has spent his life in politics with no instinct for policy.

Banker Mark has spent his life in policy with no instinct for politics.

@ABDanielleSmith The opposite of Team Canada. In this for yourself, I see.

@kinsellawarren Western Standard? Seriously? This kind of thing is when you lose all credibility with everyone in Canada except for right wing nutbars, Warren. Is it worth it?

[better cities, PLEASE! @OVancouverite]

@KnightLegg lol, says a right wing stooge with a paid for blue check who’s trying so hard to look important. Carney’s one of the smartest people in the world at national economies during an economic crisis & you’re championing a career politician whose only skill is schoolyard insults. Lame.

@guyfelicella And those aren’t “sneakers.”

[better cities, PLEASE! @OVancouverite]

@porschejag Why? You want Lis Truss to lie to everyone even more? Seriously dude, you’re a joke, she’s a joke, and Canadians are much smarter than you are.

[better cities, PLEASE! @OVancouverite]

@BirminghamAg @BrentToderian Except he’s a white male. Which for some reason seems to really matter to some people. So he has a much better chance of winning. I may not like that, but it’s not his fault.

I respect Carney and want him to win. PP would be a nightmare for Canada, but a dream for Trump.

@michaelgeller @GlobalBC Sigh. Such BS, Michael. If you dont have proof of such an accusation then you’re just making shit up. Governments are allowed to make profit for the public. Heck, it’s downright responsible. And you have zero credibility as a commentator on Terry much anything these days.

[better cities, PLEASE! @OVancouverite]

@PierrePoilievre @kinsellawarren How about you get the normal security clearance like everyone else in your position does? If you cared for our troops and national security, you would. If you’re able to, that is.

[better cities, PLEASE! @OVancouverite]

@kinsellawarren @BrentToderian You might be right, but there’s a chance Trump knew it was going to be done and was ok with it.

Message to the faithful.

[better cities, PLEASE! @OVancouverite]

@PierrePoilievre He didn’t launch it there. He was on that show before his launch. Obviously. So why do you constantly feel the need to lie? Are you so unsure of yourself in real life that you have to constantly make up a different one? Or do you just think Canadians are gullible?

Seriously.

[better cities, PLEASE! @OVancouverite]

@krassenstein It doesn’t matter. Like Trump, he’s a pathological liar. Canada hates him deeply.
