During Berlin Marathon, “a runner’s shoe broke right in front of us. Without thinking twice, my husband, who has run three marathons himself, offered him his brand new running shoe — and by pure coincidence, it was the perfect size.
So by this measure....Poilievre should be out of Stornaway becuase elections have consequences right? I mean if we are going to go absolutist here with regards to the rules and conventions. #cdnpoli
“We don’t want her here,” Chief Allan Adam says of Alberta Premier Danielle Smith. The leader of the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation told reporters this morning that if Smith continues to push separatism forward, she should just leave. #ableg#cdnpoli
Residence of Battle River-Crowfoot should be asking why did @PierrePoilievre lose his seat in the riding that he held for over 20 years?
Because Pierre Poilievre only cares about himself and not the people of Canada or the constituents in his riding!

"Carleton was gerrymandered by the Liberals"
- not even remotely true.
"Pierre only lost because the long ballot"
- add up everyone else and Pierre still loses.
You lost, grow up, accept it. I thought a large part of Pierre's base was pathetic before, but now...holy f*ck 🤡.
I look at the CPC voting record, and QP (as others do). David Brazil is blaming Poilievre's unpopularity on them being misinformed. David Cochrane asked Mr Brazil how people were supposed to be informed when the CPC campaign shunned the press and local debates (paraphrased).
In just a few days:
- Auto parts tariffs quietly dropped
- Olive branches extended to opposition parties
- Alberta resource development concerns addressed
- Actually talks to the media and answers questions like a normal human.
We voted for an adult, and by God, we got him.
1/ Seems unbelievably unfair that a man who worked hard for his constituents, earning their trust and support in winning re-election, will forfeit his job and pension so a man with a gold-plated pension just fired with cause can parachute in without any hint of introspection.
He cared not about the housing or the children of his fellow Canadians. And we are now being told we should be the bigger party and hand him a home at tax-payers expense to which he’s not entitled? No.
I wonder: Are those who accused Singh of being in it for the pension among those arguing for gold-plated pension Poilievre to be given slack on the perks to which he is no longer entitled after losing his seat in parliament?
@David_Moscrop Some things Poilievre voted against: National School Food Program, Pharmacare, Ten-Dollar a Day Childcare, and Canada Child Benefit. But we should be the bigger party and give him a home to which he’s not entitled at tax-payers expense? Petty? Perhaps. I still say no.🤷🏻♂️
Poilievre lost the seat count, lost the popular vote (unlike Scheer and O’Toole) and is diminished w/o a seat in the HOC. And polls of approval ratings showed he was a ballot drag on the party, esp. among women. So, yeah, I expect Liberals would love for him to stick around.
Conservatives missed all-candidates events at a much higher rate than the other major parties.
We looked for reports of no-shows in each of the 343 federal ridings, and here's what we found:
