When the Japanese live translation goes silent because the translators are too stunned to repeat your Pearl Harbor “joke” to the Japanese PM, you’ve officially reached a new level of diplomatic failure. Those seconds of silence were the most honest reaction of the day.

Carrie, your ability to find and vet these stories is amazing. Keep up the amazing work. These are very important stories.

“The Premier really wants the CorruptCare scandal to go away, it’s not going away. It is the biggest government scandal in Alberta history … well, until this week,” said Leader Naheed Nenshi.

how bad is the Corrupt Care scandal today? the UCP refused to talk to reporters.

Rogan mentions cannabis being legal in Canada. Poilievre replies, “been legal for 10 years, yeah.” Rogan applauds Canada for voting to legalize marijuana. He says it's about "personal freedom." Poilievre agrees it’s about personal choice. (Poilievre voted against cannabis legalization lol)

🟥 WOW... This is the most awkward, CRINGIEST two minutes in the history of the political internet. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Pierre Poilievre, reduced to a gushing fanboy who finally meets his HERO, Joe Rogan... 😬 This clip alone is DISQUALIFYING – this guy is completely unfit to be the Leader of the Official Opposition in Canada, let alone Prime Minister of our proud nation! 🤷🏻‍♂️ Pierre is an embarrassing abomination and needs to resign as SOON as he sets foot back in Canada. He should be freed to pursue his obvious REAL passion – fitness videos. 🏋🏻‍♂️

Pierre Poilievre's Two Faces: One for Canada, One for Europe To everyone swooning over @PierrePoilievre's @joeroganhq appearance, read this. #cdnpoli markhamhislop.substack.com/p/pierre-poili…

Joe Rogan: "If Poilievre is PM I will come back to Canada!" This should be Carney's next campaign slogan!

After publicly accusing an innocent person of one of Canada's worst mass shootings due to his own bigotry, Pleb disappeared for a long time, and his return just happens to coincide with Pierre going on Rogan? Who else thinks Pierre told him his time-out was over to promote it?

@ABDanielleSmith is lying to you.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre just found a way to alienate even more potential female voters: he went on Joe Rogan. The sweeping two and a half hour conversation covered everything from kettle bells to seed oils. I know, because I watched the whole thing. Now you don’t have to:

The guy who endorsed Trump and voted for Trump, endorsing a Canadian politician, isn't the win you think it is.

🤔 “While Poilievre posted the video on his social media platforms, the Conservative leader told Rogan that he wasn't aware he was being filmed at the time.” cbc.ca/news/politics/…

The "bar is low" on Power and Politics when a LOO is lauded for appearing on a Conspiracy and anti Canada Podcast and speaks normal We are now saying he is great because he talked at the level Rogan and his mansphere can understand! It is a sad commentary on Canadian expectations

🧵 Final Thoughts 2 hours and 23 minutes is a long time to talk. Poilievre was "charming" and laid back, but as we've seen, his stories often shift depending on the audience. Whether it’s the half-truths about the Swiss economy or the misleading context used to describe Canada's MAID program, the substance often takes a backseat to the slogan. Being a "straight-talker" means being consistent with the facts—even when the border changes. The Joe Rogan interview showed a leader who is a master of the "curated truth." He’s a hawk in the House of Commons, but a dove in Austin. He’s a Bitcoin believer in a shawarma shop, but a "crypto sleeper" on the world's biggest podcast. I have my own opinions on these policies, but this thread isn't about that. It’s about a pattern of messaging. If the facts change depending on who is listening, it raises the ultimate question: Who is the real Pierre Poilievre?

5/5 🩴 THE BITCOIN PIVOT: From "Shawarma Revolutionary" to Quiet Hibernation The Photo Op: In March 2022, Pierre Poilievre stood in Tahini’s Shawarma in London, ON, and famously paid for his lunch with Bitcoin. He used that moment to tell Canadians they could "opt out of inflation" by ditching the Canadian dollar for crypto. The Punchy Quote: At the time, he didn't just suggest Bitcoin; he championed it, saying: "Government is ruining the Canadian dollar... Canadians should have the freedom to use other money, such as bitcoin". He even proposed making Canada the "blockchain capital of the world". The Rogan Shift: Fast forward to March 2026. On the world’s biggest pro-crypto podcast, the "Shawarma Revolutionary" was surprisingly quiet about his old advice. The Pivot: Instead of telling Joe Rogan's millions of listeners to "opt out" with Bitcoin, he focused almost entirely on Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) and "financial surveillance". The Reality: After the "Crypto Winter" saw Bitcoin users face an effective 40% inflation rate in a single year (while the CAD stayed in single digits), the bold 2022 slogans have vanished. The Bottom Line: In 2022, @PierrePoilievre used a sandwich shop to tell you Bitcoin was a safe haven from a "ruined" currency. In 2026, facing a tough fight against Mark Carney's Liberals, he has entered a "crypto hibernation." He’s still happy to attack the Bank of Canada, but he’s stopped telling you to bet your life savings on a shawarma-funded dream. 👇 Receipts: The Past: Watch the 2022 Tahini's video: "We bought the shawarma with Bitcoin!". The Present: Compare it to the 2026 Rogan interview—where the specific "opt-out" endorsement is replaced by generic anti-surveillance talk. The Math: Rabble.ca/CBC: "The 40.8% annual inflation rate for those who tried to opt out with Bitcoin".

1/5 🔍 REALITY CHECK: Is 1 in 20 deaths in Canada really assisted suicide? The Claim: Rogan cites the "1 in 20" stat and claims a young Canadian got it for seasonal depression. Poilievre validates this, warning that MAID shouldn't be "offered to kids" or people "whose only condition is mental illness." The Implication: They are framing this statistic as a dystopian reality where the Canadian government is actively euthanizing physically healthy, depressed youth instead of offering them help. The Reality: Yes, the math is actually right. According to Health Canada's 6th Annual Report, there were 16,499 MAID provisions in 2024, representing 5.1% of all deaths in the country. So yes, roughly 1 in 20 deaths in Canada is an assisted suicide. But there is a BIG "but." When you look at the actual data, the demographic driving this number is entirely different from what Poilievre and Rogan are suggesting: Terminal Illness: Over 95% of MAID provisions were "Track 1" cases, meaning the person's natural death was already reasonably foreseeable. Cancer, not depression: Cancer was the most frequently cited condition, affecting more than 63% of MAID recipients, and the median age of a recipient was 77.9 years old. Mental Illness is legally excluded: Anyone whose sole underlying medical condition is a mental illness is legally barred from accessing MAID in Canada; that expansion was met with heavy pushback and has been officially delayed until at least March 17, 2027. Furthermore, MAID is strictly limited to adults 18 and older. The Bottom Line: Let's be precise. 1 out of every 20 total deaths in Canada (about 5%) is from MAID. But if you look inside that 5%, it consists almost entirely of terminally ill, elderly patients—not depressed kids. 👇 Receipts: Health Canada's 6th Annual Report on MAID (released late 2025 detailing 2024 data). Bill C-39 / C-62 (Delaying MAID for mental illness until 2027).

This is green screen. Joe Rogan. American flags. Sad
