What an irresponsible plan from #CPC Leader Pierre Poilievre; calling for a ban on new or higher federal taxes unless approved via a referendum! This would cripple public services Canadians depend on & limit ability to balance future budgets! #shame #cdnpoli #elxn45 www.thestar.com/politics/fed...
Pierre Poilievre pledges ‘ban’...

#PierrePoilievre and the #CPC promise to restrict bail and to increase penalties for #crime, especially for those who commit repeated felonies. Let us return to the pre-#JustinTrudeau trendline.
3/3
On #crime, #CPC policies are much superior.
The long-term trend in crime in Canada is down, but over the last ten years crime, especially violent crime, has increased: https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/240725/cg-b006-eng.htm
Why? The Liberals have a general tendency to de-emphasize the punitive and protective functions of the #justice system. In particular, in 2019 they made bail easier; since crime is disproportionately the result of a small number of repeat offenders, more crimes result.

Mike Harcourt: Mark Carney understands how to expand Canada's economy and rekindle prosperity.
Opinion: Unlike either Justin Trudeau or Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, #Carney has extensive economic and business experience

Why conservatives can’t seem to crack Canada

No offense to the elders out there, but the “old people” #CPC ad being played during the Toronto vs Ottawa playoff hockey game seems pretty ”focused” for a party that needs to broaden its appeal to win an election.
This year's #Revision brought us a very cool release for the #AmstradPlus by the French group #Impact called "3DManiaks2". Voxel, Plasma effects, Raycasting and much more making great use of the extended colour palette of the Plus range. Excellent tune by Ultrasyd.

As we're voting across the country, remember that the previous Harper CPC gov, and specifically #Poilievre as the relevant Minister, installed a bunch of steps to discourage voting, and remove Elections Canada's impartiality.
That mess was quickly removed with Bill C76 after the #CPC was booted out.
Let's not let them back in again!
We voted this morning and the line up was something you would expect on election day - a lot of #Canadians doing quite the opposite of #VoterApathy and I think a lot has to do with the #ElbowsUp thinking. The voters that are usually pissed off (#CPC) go out and vote and they are being met by the other side and the folks on the other side that in the past have been in the voter apathy group. I hope this will make the difference in this election.

A non-comprehensive list of things #Poilievre is 'tight lipped' about:
- trans/LGBTQIA rights
- SOGI/sex-ed in schools
- privatizing healthcare
- privatizing education
- tax cuts for the wealthy
- reproductive freedom
- weakening environmental laws to favour the oil & gas industry
- scuttling the national dental care plan
- scuttling the $10/day daycare program
- repealing the new capital gains tax
- everything the #GOP is doing to the south, since the #CPC is a subsidiary.

The #CBC At Issue panel discusses last night's #LeadersDebate: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=q59fq-TsEgY&pp=ygUMY2JjIGF0IGlzc3Vl
It was a good debate for #PierrePoilievre, they say, and #MarkCarney showed his inexperience at politics. (FWIW, #Polymarket's odds for a Liberal win went up about 2% at the end of the debate, and then drifted down by the same amount.)
#ChantalHébert points out that if the #CPC were to go up in overall support, that would likely push more NDP/BQ voters to the Liberals in response.

Maybe after Canadian reporters are done asking #PierrePoilievre about why he can't/shan't/whatever apply for a even a 'reliable' security clearance (the most basic entry level of Canadian security clearances)
they ought to start asking Danielle Smith if SHE can get/has entry-level Canadian security clearance?
