    LOL if he gets less than 70% in this by election win, he’s a goner as leader.

      He’s not a cowboy redneck, he’s a rich high society career politician from Ottawa pretending to be a cowboy to hopefully win more than an embarassignly low percentage (70%+) of the vote in the most conservative riding in Canada.

      To be fair, this riding is almost entirely cowboy hat wearing rednecks. The funny part is that Pierre is a member of the political elite class these people claim to hate, but they’ll vote for him anyway

        He lost and not only left his riding but left his entire province to move to one more likely to support his views.

        If that doesnt scream “for the people” what does? /s

          I just do not get why any Canadians would even consider him after what a disaster Trump has been for the United States. He’s Canadian Trump.

            I think a big part of it is there is a lot of propaganda in the country with conservatives being “fiscally responsible”. Their candidates rarely are fiscally responsible, for example conservative premier doug ford wants to rip out new bike lanes, spend money in court making bike lanes illegal, and promote car dependancy.

            The conservatives also deny climate change and an upsetting amount of canadians deny climate change despite the recent wildfire smoke blanketing the country.
