Otoole gone Wednesday?

Glad to see the support on here for Pierre Poilievre! He is such a straight shooter, supporting the freedom convoy. He should even use this quote and video as he campaigns to be the next Conservative leader.

“These blockaders are taking away the freedom of other people to move their goods and themselves...that is wrong and the government has laws and tools in place to combat it,” said

Here is an actual video of him condemning the blockage which takes away the freedom for people to move themselves or goods and that the government and police should move in. I am sure the good conservatives at Coutts will agree!

Oh wait, this was Poilievere's view about the native blockade in 2020.

Yup.For sure the same kind of protest. Good grief. One of them burned churches, vehicles etc. The current one is shovelling sidewalks and feeding the homeless. Exactly the same thing.

When or if a cop gets run over it will
change our political
System for ever. Conservatives will
Need more than a new name.

Yup. All conservatives want to run over cops. That’s their specialty, obviously.

Like do you think?

Need to get over the past. If it wasn’t
For immigration which by the way most of
The extreme hate due to racism Sask
Would have a net loss of people. If we
Don’t get on board with the rest of the world
That will be even worse.

You are dead wrong
Me and thousands of others came back every time the NDP got punted

You are only seeing things you want to see. If a dozen trucks were parked meters from your home and blowing their horns continually 24 hours a day so no one in your home could sleep, scaring your sheep off feed, and your family could not go to work because their work place was shuttered due to the convey, even if truckers nicely shoveled up their own shit I doubt you would support them no matter their cause

Poilievre did not bring up burning churches in his statement or reasoning, that is your strawman argument. He said a blockade that takes away the freedom of other people to move their goods or themselves is wrong period. Here is his exact statement:

“These blockaders are taking away the freedom of other people to move their goods and themselves...that is wrong and the government has laws and tools in place to combat it,” said

His support of the freedom convoy after that quote he made 2 years earlier shows he flip flops as easily as o'toole and most politicians. And the inability of CPC supporters to see this is why we will likely see the Cons having to have 5 leaders in the last 8 years and 3 of them beat by Trudeau. That is sad!

Con's need to learn that when you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is to quit digging.

Why can they not go to work in one of the most pedestrian friendly cities? Why would their workplace be shuttered due to a bunch of peaceful trucks parked on the road? Its not like there is any workplace in Ottawa that creates anything, or value adds anything, and is therefore reliant on freight in and out. Civil servants can value subtract from the economy and still put words on paper, and bits on a computer, even with a truck parked outside.

Well, he's gone. I guess now the cons have to figure out how they will expand their voter base while the convoy/blockade guys are busy shrinking the conservative base. Do you want Bernier's voters or more towards the centre?

Little wake up call for Kenney, Moe and Ford. Sure why not, cant get any worse.

Tool was a waffler. Leaking platform details to cbc before your caucus doesn’t imbue loyalty.

Yup. He’s gone! Very glad!
