@AlexUsherHESA OMG. Only in a spin doctor universe does moving fully private dental care to some semblance of universal care discredit a public health defense political position for other health care. What is the counter factual?
English
Dude's about to vote against his own dental care policy.

We must protect and strengthen our public health care system. I’m forcing a vote on it in Parliament. In two weeks, Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre have a choice to make. Will they defend public health care or sell it off to CEOs? I know where I stand.

What’s gone wrong with passports, airports and basic federal services? How a perfect storm swamped Canada’s bureaucracy. “Too many poets and not enough plumbers.” Great one by @sproudfoot theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…

@AlexUsherHESA Absolutely 💯 having votes truly mean something in representative democracy is not partisan @FairVoteCanada
English
I assume all the Fair Vote people will be spending the entire day bewailing the fact that the Quebec Conservatives got 13% of the vote but no seats, while QS got 15% of the vote and 11 seats, yes?

How does he respond to those criticizing his silence in relation to these far right figureheads?
Does Mr. Poilievre condemn white supremacy and comments from Jeremy Mackenzie, including that he’d like to watch gallows on Parliament Hill?

Poilievre's team sent this to me on Tuesday in response to my request for comment.
It read like a press release then.
I guess it *was* a press release.
Here are the questions I asked, which - instead of answering - he replied to by calling me "unprofessional."

No wonder trust in the media is at an all-time low. One of Global News' so-called journalists decided to smear me & thousands of other Canadians because we criticized the federal government's unscientific & discriminatory vaccine mandates. My campaign's response to this attack.
