Opinion: ‘Good for Poilievre for liking Canadians and Canada’

Re: Todd Whitcombe’s opinion regarding Pierre Poilievre.

Todd Whitcombe ran for the MLA seat as an NDP candidate in Prince George a couple decades ago, so to be fair Todd could never support a conservative politician, especially one that is poised to bring down the NDP/Liberal coalition in Ottawa.

Todd seems to not understand why this new conservative leader is attracting supporters and large enthusiast crowds.

People are watching the political trial of a couple Freedom Convoy leaders and don’t have the same cozy feelings about freedoms that Todd clearly does. The Indian government is using the way the NDP/Liberal government crushed Canadian protesters and froze bank accounts to ridicule Trudeau on the world stage. So embarrassing.

Canadians are tired of being put down, tired of divisiveness, tired of the air we breathe being taxed, and really do long for a better future.

Poilievre is drawing massive crowds that the NDP and Liberal can only dream of, while the NDP/Liberal government offers nothing but harangue and scolding.

Good for Poilievre for liking Canadians and Canada and encouraging us to believe we can have a better and bright future.
