@whatsatort@DimitrisSoudas No just that article is using apples to oranges when comparing the governing party with opposition parties. It’s all in the way it’s being communicated.
I said this to @PierrePoilievre
I don’t understand how the floor crossings, and this recent senate announcement in any way reflect on his leadership.
Clearly, something is being offered to these individuals. We don’t know what, but I spoke to @billymorinECN and offers were being made.
Legacy media every day is trying to say that it’s Pierre’s leadership, and of course, that could be a factor for some, but that’s not even the reason some of these floor crossers have given and completely ignored the fact that the NDP had a floor crosser.
Two things can be true at once.
1.) I’m not a Conservative.
2.) I don’t trust that our government is doing things to create a flourishing democracy where things are being driven by the will of citizens
If you can’t see that our democracy is being manipulated and managed, rather than participated in by our elected officials then I think you’re missing the bigger picture.
@Reka_Niewidka@PierrePoilievre If you listened with non partisan ears, you would be surprised how many solutions the conservatives have raised that this “new” government has adopted.
Mark Carney is trying to keep a straight face explaining why he appointed his campaign staffer and advisor to the Senate.
Carney:
"Tom Pitfield, aaaa mm aa he got deep techno aaa umm technological uhhh knowledge, knowledge about the technology aaa..."
Surely if you were going for domain expertise you wouldn't be appointing a long time Liberal insider who was part of a basic analytics firm.
Oh and he is married to a Liberal MP Anna Gainey. I'm sure it's nothing.
@Reka_Niewidka@PierrePoilievre Huh? Wouldn’t you want an opposition to keep the governing party in check in a democracy? And Yes…blame is indeed warranted when we have had no real growth in over a decade and we have more Canadians going without food, shelter and medical care.
@jernalistNB@globepolitics@AbGamble1 But you are ok with the word “rupture”? Why would Canadians be told they will have to make “sacrifices”over the next decade? Why shouldn’t leaders be honest with Canadians?
My heart is with the people of Ukraine. For the past few years, we've dedicated this moment during The Rhythm of My Heart to the strength, courage and resilience of the Ukrainian people. Every night, the crowd joins together in support. In light of the recent horrific attacks on Kyiv, I hope this small tribute reminds you that people all over the world continue to stand with you.
