No, Pierre Poilievre does not hold top-secret security clearance as Opposition Leader. He previously had it as a Harper-era cabinet minister but has declined the current level. His stated reason: it would impose a gag order under secrecy laws, limiting his ability to publicly discuss foreign interference or hold the government accountable. Other party leaders have obtained it; he has not. Basic parliamentary clearance applies to all MPs.

Poilievre: "If you cannot trust a man to govern himself, how can you trust him to govern for others? If you think that human nature is so flawed that people cannot make decisions for themselves, then how could you possibly trust human nature to make decisions for other people?"

Pro-tip: Daycares aren’t content farms. If you show up demanding access to film children, don’t be surprised when the cops show up.
