  1. Value is not necessarily measired in dollars/payment. Blackface, breaking the law for riding corporate lobbyists, accepting first class paid vacations because they are old friends… Hey we get it the rules, laws and norms don’t apply if you have fooled the electorate that you are progressive. That is all exclusively reserved for those on the Right. To say it’s the world upside-down is an under statement of epic proportion.

    1. ive gone door to door for liberals all i hear from Canadian families they voted PPC, this election just got interesting for the underdog PPC

    2. First Greta the Swedish Climate Alarmist interfering in Canadian elections and now Obama. I thought Trudeau was saying he wouldn’t allow foreign interference in our elections?

    3. @Sony Lebeau so your scared of Quebec nationalism…and reopening referendums…if blues win…
      I think perhaps you don’t understand the fever and hatred in the West….if the reds win…you face the same issues from Alberta.. referendum and seperation

    1. he is still trying to stay separated from his past cabinet considering what all is about to be exposed about what they did for 8 years

    2. Before Biden decided to run for president, Obama advised him against it. A centrist isn’t going to win in the USA in 2020. It’s either going to be Trump or a progressive.

    3. @Random Comment President Trump won the 2020 election back in 2016.
      We are not from Russia but we make sure President Trump reins.

  2. Please don’t believe these polls remember Kathleen Wynne they said she was up in the polls and President Trump only had 1% look what happened there

    1. @Ember Frost-Paw I do realize that but still Obama can keep his nose out of Canadians election. Even with a stupid tweet

    2. @alobo2000  Different, because Trudeau never pressured nor paid Obama. But seems like Trump did. Big difference. Top of that, Obama isn’t a President of anywhere right. Educate yourself before speaking out.

    3. Obama isn’t even president anymore. His endorsements means moot especially if he’s meddling into foreign affairs AGAIN.

  3. If he is re-elected now we’ll have to appoint a special prosecutor to spend two years investigating whether or not LPC officials colluded with this foreign interference….

    1. nakai tells someone to educate themselves. One sentence earlier tells them Trump paid Putin. That was never even an allegation. You should take your own advice.

    2. Obama is politicially retired. He is no longer President and so he is no longer talking as leader of the United States but as a simple citizen. Why is this so hard for conservatives to understand?

    1. @DJ Blue If you did the proper research you would know the votes being changed were mostly in Texas and it was switching trump for hillary. It was also user error and not the Russians.

    1. Obama endorsed Macron… and he won by a landslide. :/

      (Not saying I like Macron, just pointing this out.)

  4. Any suggestions from Obama like that will just about turn everyone off, that has any sense about themselves.

  5. BHO seems incapable of just sitting down and shutting up like most of the other former presidents…. Now injecting into Canadian election? Baaaaaad boy, Barrack!!!!!

    1. @alobo2000  Different, because Trudeau never pressured nor paid Obama. But seems like Trump did. Big difference. Top of that, Obama isn’t a President of anywhere right. Educate yourself before speaking out.

    2. Obama borrowed more money than all other Presidents combined…maybe he will teach Trudeau on how to do that to Canada?

    3. Obama actually told Biden not to run. Centrism is dead in America for the 2020 election and Biden is the biggest centrist of them all.

    1. I hope you’re right. We here in the West will be wiped off the planet it that anti western reckless spending leftist cheated his way in again.
