Satchmo Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Just now, Spring Salmon said: https://nationalpost.com/news/liberals-do-damage-control-after-thank-you-message-from-terror-leader Can I discount the opinions of the National Post as readily as others discount the opinions of CBC/CNN? Either way, I see no validation of the word 'barely'. From your article: A video statement released earlier this week by senior Hamas leader Dr. Ghazi Hamad thanked Canada for their controversial support of a non-binding United Nations resolution calling for a ceasefire in war-torn Gaza — referring to a joint statement issued by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau alongside his Australian and New Zealand counterparts calling for a “sustainable ceasefire” between Israel and Hamas. Calling for a ceasefire prompted a thankyou from Hamas. This is sad according to one of your previous posts. Was the call for a ceasefire sad or the response from Hamas? Hamas can say what they will. Trudeau, PP, and Singh, along with others, heard what they said and and condemned Hamas. So, they took action. PP heard what Alex Jones said and did nothing. No sadness there? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maninthebox Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 https://nationalpost.com/opinion/michael-taube-does-it-matter-that-alex-jones-endorsed-pierre-poilievre-not-in-the-slightest Michael Taube: Does it matter that Alex Jones endorsed Pierre Poilievre? Not in the slightest *excerpt* "Why? Because most intelligent and rational-thinking Canadians will realize this supposedly big breaking news event isn’t worthy of their consideration." *excerpt* "And besides, Poilievre doesn’t need to address Jones’s endorsement in any great detail. A few media organizations reported that the Opposition Leader’s Office said on April 5, “We do not follow the individual you mention or listen to what he says.” That’s more than enough. Anything else would only serve to provide legitimacy to the statement itself, and potentially open the doors to an even wider discussion and more conspiracy theories. As the old saying goes, less is more." Hasn't CBC reprted this? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) 1 hour ago, Warhippy said: Question Is Pierre popular? Or is Trudeau unpopular? Both, pretty much any figurehead politician with extensive term will get stale amongst the citizens of x country I'd imagine. The longer a figurehead holds office the more history there is to draw on. If the liberals were running a different candidate there'd be less ammunition to fire at their candidate with. As seen in this thread, Trudeau isn't even necessarily popular amongst those who'd prefer him to win, but he's still frequently viewed as being a better option than Pierre. Pierre is popular amongst those he's made efforts to appeal to, which has been well documented. He doesn't appeal to everyone with conservative values because of the social aspects of his pandering, and some of his views, but he'll likely still get some votes from folks like that. He also gets the benefit of the doubt from some folks who are simply tired of Trudeau for whatever reason. Thing is, some folks will end up voting against their best interests because they're tired of having Trudeau as the figurehead. Folks need to focus more on platforms, promises, and so on than individual party leaders, which isn't to say ignore the party leaders.

Miss Korea Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 2 hours ago, Ricky Ravioli said: Do you think political leaders are more concerned about your opinion or their polling? I've already done all that. I don't need to do that on this board for you. My issues with him clearly are no where near as large as yours You have constructed a circular argument. Poilievre is a good leader because he is popular. --> he's polling well so he must be doing something right --> he's doing a great job so far because his polling numbers are so good. This isn't even a gotcha question. You just can't come up with anything good about Pierre Poilievre (other than popularity) without trying to dump on Trudeau. Does he have strong principles? Nope - doesn't talk about his own beliefs much. Does he show compassion? Nope - doesn't interact with people much (unless it's a political rally). Does he show honesty or intelligence? No - he has been busted for lying through entire speeches, and when confronted by media about, proceeds to simply attack them personally. How would you define in simple terms his entire platform anything beyond "F*** Trudeau"? Indulge us. You are here posting to people, trying to mock "the left", so have some balls to answer a simple question here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only care about winning and "owning the libs" than him actually leading the country in a good direction. Still waiting for you define that "good direction", BTW. And no - "undoing the damage Trudeau did" is not a valid answer to that. Give me some hard policy opinions, man. I want to know what you think about PP's future fiscal policy, his future foreign policy, his future social policy. Stop wasting time talking about polls and popularity - everyone here knows how to read a poll. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say, it's a bit odd that I see so many people who claim to be Liberal, or at least progressive voters, all of a sudden ready to vote for PP, just because they don't like Justin.... Yeah, lets just go ahead and throw out all of our principles and political beliefs, because of the guy leading the party. Gotta say, it kind of makes me doubt their claims of being "progressives" in the first place.....unless of course, they're abandoning Justin to vote for Jag.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
