Are Canadians souring on Pierre Poilievre? New poll suggests his popularity has taken a hit
Pierre Poilievre’s popularity has taken a significant hit in the weeks since Parliament returned from the summer break, according to the latest Abacus Data polling.
PP is a walking stereotype of everything wrong with Canada. I would love to see some ranked voting, but the liberals didn't keep their election reform promise.
Yeah! We deserve single transferable ranked choice voting!
Get rid of Trudeau and Poilievre. Honestly, maybe Singh too. Just give us all new party leaders
I feel like this might be the only way we can get back to a political discourse that isn't just "ugh, that guy sucks"
I’d take Singh in a heartbeat over the other two.
But we need a Kamala up here too.
Even if the Liberals somehow manage to find a credible, electable leader that doesn't end up being a Michael Ignatieff 2.0, I see no reason to trust that they won't deliver more of the same bullshit.
When it comes to leadership in American politics, it's said that democrats fall in love, and republicans fall in line.
I don't want to fall in love. The past decade of Canadian politics has been a parade of 'charisma' and it hasn't gotten us anywhere. I want a sincere and straightforward leader, who won't get embroiled in scandals, has a strong stance on foreign policy, a plan for foreign interference, the housing & affordability crisis, and an ability to deal with issues in a straightforward and policy-focused way. I guess what I'm trying to say is I want a prime minister with a short skirt and a long jacket.
Still waiting for Rachel Notley to throw her hat into the ring for the NDP, that'd be a breath of fresh air
I've been seeing an insane number of CPC ads and it's just vague bullshit promises about Crime, COMMON SENSE, and here's the flag! It's American style ads just with the Canadian flag substituted for the US flag. Then there's a bunch of attack ads on Trudeau.
And made me feel like "did I miss the news about an election being called?" Nope. They're just starting political ads a year before the election like they do in the US. Nobody wants that in Canada. I don't think they even want that in the US, but they put up with it I guess.
It's going to be a fucking long run up to an election if we have to put up with seeing this asshole's face for a year. I think I may not be the only one that feels this way, so it may be the CPC spent a whole bunch of money on ads that only hurt them.
Talking to my dad about these ads... They disturb me. Specifically the "stop the crime" they keep harping on.
What crime exactly? The perceived notion they are leaning on is that the current Liberal Government is criminal and commiting crimes which is definitely NOT the case in any refutable way. Yet this is what his ad is saying. That is some shady ass behaviour from a federal party IMHO.
I fucking hope so
I prettt much have to rely on Fedia and some Torontonian friends to know how the public actually feels about Pierre
You have not experienced an echo chamber til you've lived in Alberta, cripes it often feels like Pierre has a 99.9% chance of winning if you listen to people here
please
I think if Trump loses the election, it will hurt Pollievre as well.
He’s still winning. There is no way the liberals get back in with or without JT as leader. It’s Canadian tradition keep party in power till your mad then vote the other guy in.
🎶 Iiiiits the Canadian waaaayyy 🎶
lol. When Kamala hands trump his go directly to jail slip. The grifter is finished.
Did anybody ever not sour on this testicular sore of a human being?
The only people who weren't already soured on him from the beginning are people who think Trump and DeSantis are "good guys".
