In terms of a purely political move, Poilievre’s gamble paid off as Justin Trudeau decided to step on the metaphorical bear trap that Poilievre avoided. Justin Trudeau, pathologically unable to tolerate any political view that is not aligned with his own, decided to attack Premier Blaine Higgs over his very reasonable policies.
When asked about Trudeau’s criticism of the Policy 713 changes saying “trans kids need to feel safe” implying parents should not have oversight over their own children in school, Poilievre said:
I know that Justin Trudeau has butted into that. The prime minister has no business in decisions that should rest with provinces and parents. So my message to Justin Trudeau is, ‘Butt out’ and let provinces run schools and let parents raise kids.
More Canadians need to be educated about what Justin Trudeau and the Liberal government are trying to do to independent media in this country. If the Liberals get their way independent media will be heavily marginalized on the internet and only subsidized government-approved media will be easily accessible online.
The Conservative Party should decisively be a party of the political centre-right to right, and I hope Pierre Poilievre and the rest of the Conservative MPs continue to ignore legacy media “conservatives” like Andrew Coyne trying to push them back to the left.
This leaves only 67 percent of 2021 Liberal voters polled who said they will still be supporting the Liberal Party come the next election.
Considering that the Liberal Party is considered the “natural governing party of Canada” these polls are nearing 2011 levels of catastrophic for Trudeau’s prospects of remaining prime minister.
Right now, Justin Trudeau is facing poor public polling numbers, multiple ongoing scandals, as well as worst of all having less than half of the donations as the Conservative Party in the first quarter of 2023.
Recently a conservative culture war victory was won after a brief social media campaign mounted by Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre to get Twitter owner Elon Musk to label the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) labeled as government media.
For a long while Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party felt that they could rest easy despite being behind the Conservative Party for nearly a year in average polling numbers. This is because the Liberals could always point to “preferred prime minister” polling to show that a plurality of Canadians still preferred Trudeau over Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and NDP leader Jagmeet Singh.
Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre confronted Prime Minister Justin Trudeau today in Parliamentary Question Period regarding his comments from 2013 where he stated he admires “China’s basic dictatorship”.
