Let me get this straight. You’ve been in power for ten years. You’ve doubled the debt. You’ve weakened the economy. And now, your answer is to trap young Canadians? On stage, the Liberal Party of Canada brings out Patrick Pichette, a former senior executive at Google, who now lives in Europe, to suggest that Canadians who want to pursue opportunities in the United States should face an exit tax of $500,000. Half a million dollars to leave your own country. This, from someone who once left Canada himself to build a career in the U.S. and paid virtually nothing to do so. So let’s be honest about what this is. It is not economic policy. It is not nation building. It is control. A government that has mismanaged the economy now wants to limit your ability to seek opportunity elsewhere. Instead of creating reasons to stay, they are looking for ways to make it harder to leave. You do not grow a country by locking people in. You grow it by giving them a reason to believe in it.

I'm in Thailand population 72m population. They don't five a fuck about climate change or emissions. Neither do Phillipines 110m population. Neither do Indonesia with a population of 265m. Why is that? Because they are too busy trying to survive. Australia, with a population of 26m, is going to save the planet on its own by destroying its economy. If you believe that you need help.

Reporter: You're telling us [your constituents] want this. I just don't buy it Marilyn Gladu: I've been listening to my constituents since last summer ... it's going to be good for their riding. It's going to be good for the country and it's good for me personally as well.

Hear me out... this might seem like a far reach but what if the goal of the Conservatives was to fully infiltrate the Liberals from inside and basically turn them into Conservatives from within? I mean Mark started with taking Pierre's ideas and running with them... This country has gone so far off the rails, so I'm keeping this around as a possibility - as crazy as it sounds.

🚨 Marilyn Gladu was a front bencher. She was a high ranking member of Pierre Poilievre's shadow cabinet. She was not some kind of random backbencher. She even supported Pierre during his leadership race. Today, she joined the Liberals. What happened?

@PierrePoilievre The voters in your former riding had their say, and look how you handled that. Perhaps the reason MPs are crossing the floor is you. Maybe?

Pierre Poilievre@PierrePoilievre·
Mark Carney is seizing a costly Liberal majority that voters denied him, and doing so through backroom deals. In January, MP Gladu said that floor crossers should face voters in a byelection to give voters the final say. I could not agree more. She should do so. The people in her community voted for our Conservative vision of a Canada that is affordable, safe, and strong at home, not for the costly Liberal government she has now joined. She should honour her word and let voters decide.

PM Mark Carney: "In a few minutes I'll officially welcome Marilyn Gladu as the latest member of the government ... this all comes at a time when the country as a whole is uniting, uniting to move forward and it's important that [in Parliament] we unite to move forward as well."

Sorry I can't agree with you on this one. How is this on Pierre when people in those ridings voted these MPs on the basis that they will represent them in the HoC - for that party - , only for them to turn and cross the floor? if this was on Pierre, the people would have voted for the other side already

Within less than 12 months of the election, @CPC_HQ @PierrePoilievre have lost 4 MPs to floor crossings & their new communications director has quit. Things seem to be seriously awry in the party. The leader needs to answer to the party’s supporters. Will he?

Gladu on January 11, 2026, “Really, the whole point of being an MP is to represent your constituents. So if they’re voting you in under one platform –for you to switch for whatever reasons, just seems to me to not be representing what you’re supposed to be there to represent. “We elected you under this banner, and if you don’t want to be under that banner, then we deserve a chance to have a redo.”

@SoveyX That's actually insane when you think about it. I envy people like her who have a metabolism that burns like a raging furnace. I eat two burgers and I'm on calorie watch for the next month

Korean women are genetically superior… at eating insane amounts of food. She ate 20 burgers. 20… burgers…. This is Tzuyang, one of Korea’s most famous mukbang creators. Mukbang is basically an eating show, and she’s legendary for eating absurd amounts of food while looking like she weighs less than a kids meal. Five Guys is a brutal choice too. Their food is heavy, the toppings stack up fast, and the fries alone could humble the average person.

I'm trying to find the exact moment the Liberals discovered they could just announce things, do literally nothing to fulfill the thing, and nobody would care.

Some days you can’t love social media enough. This is one of those days. It began like this. Someone stole 12 tons of KitKats. And then the replies started coming in. Scroll down.
