Hold up.. You mean the guy who can’t even remember how many times he wore shoe-polish on his face is actually racist? Sacrebleu!
Pierre is taking a page out of Turdeau’s play book with skirting the question. Having said that, it’s beyond time for a change and I believe Pierre is the lesser of two evils and will prevail in the next election!
It’s almost as if cowardice is a bipartisan problem 🙄
I have been following that and what these two reporters have just reported on is miss information
Nope it’s not
​@Jumbo Me yup it is!
@Jimi d’Canada nope. It’s not. Do your basic research
Pierre is not wrong
The way that he deflects questions is embarrassing. The question asked of him was relatively simple. I’ll not vote for Trudeau and his Liberal Party, but I wish this guy would stop acting like Trudeau. … show Canadians that you are a leader, not a deflector.
Absolutely agree with you. I’m tired of the name calling.
@Curtiss Flamence doesn’t make him any better
He would be right!
Remember when the word Racist meant something? Me either.
It’s concerning that Poilievre appointed someone to be a director of the Conservative Party’s main funding body who is a World Economic Forum speaker and an advisor to a corporation that specializes in Covid-19 data management for Fortune 500 companies.
What did Anderson say that was “racist”?
Europeans standing up for their country are not racist
Oh dear …. I had such hopes for Pierre and the Conservatives. I, myself, am for Christine Anderson, and do not understand Pierre ‘s reaction to her. I confess, I am very disappointed. And am quite shattered now as to where I stand ….. much thinking and praying to do. Need the Lord’s wisdom as to how to think about all these events.
CHECK OUT “TULSI GABBARD CALLS TRUDEAU AUTHORITARIAN ” ON YOUTUBE. REPRESENTS EVERYONE, ITS A GREAT SPEECH BY HER.
iT IS BETTER TO CHOOSE PIERRE THAN JT.
@anna koncz only the blind would disagree. đź‘Ť
That was an awesome answer. Throw their hypocrisy and bias back at them. I mean, they don’t even mention that she’s an elected MP in the EU Parliament.
​@Jumbo MeTrudeau has never answered a direct question yet lol
@Ashatan he obviously didn’t take it serious. That’s why he danced around without answering it.
@Loyal Customer never says he did did I ?
@Jumbo Me when has Trudeau ever answered a direct question
I think those mp’s just herd it was a free lunch lol.
Christine anderson is am elected member of parliment. Whether you like her views or not I think was respectful as colleagues to meet with her.
Check out ” Tulsi Gabbard calls Trudeau Authoritarian ” on YouTube. You will like her to. Represents everyone.
@H try that in English. You bots are getting worse
Listening to Poilievre is like listening to Trump. I can barely last ten seconds before I have to turn him off. I’d love to see a statesman leading the Conservative Party, I think it’s time for change, but not this guy. Please let sanity return to Canadian politics.
Poilievre is starting to worry me , but not nearly as much as trudeau. So don’t be mistaken. Pierre has made an error. He is trying to correct it to some degree. I think he should do more. But trudeau – he has created and participated in so many huge scandals! There is no chance to even remotely diminish his total lack of respect for the Canadian public! He has already changed this country enormously for the worse – so much so that I don’t think Canada will ever be able to recover!
@SAL In what way has Trudeau “changed Canada enormously for the worse”?

What a drama queen.
These questions are designed to divide Pierre Poilevre supporters but Pierre is way too smart to fall for that bait. Weak Liberal reporters.
Our pm needs to go. He knew and said nothing. How many times do we need to get duped by him. Wake up !
It’s worth noting Justin took action to protect national security while Poilievre encouraged the illegal foreign funded convoy occupiers.
Your kidding, right?
“foreign funded” lol
Where is the Governor General while Trudeau and his Liberals are compromised? It’s her job to remove him and his cabinet until the investigation is over. She is also responsible for “bringing Canadians together”, yet, Justin Trudeau is dividing and conquering Canadians. Is the GG compromised?
“The governor-general has a number of other legal powers. They may dismiss an incumbent prime minister and Cabinet, an individual minister, or any other official who holds office “during the King’s pleasure” or “during the Governor-General’s pleasure”.
Polievre needs to walk down a sketchy alliey’s in any major urban area and pick up some used sharps… then challenge the pm to do the same. Then live a week homeless… then try to rent affordable clean housing…. take a bus to work maybe?
