Goddamn CBC is the only network to carry the Conservative debate.  We need more corporate tv networks to fight this rightwing agenda by the CBC. 

Defund the rightwing cbc.

Yikes.  Con candidates have gone all-in on the anti-mask, anti-lockdown nuttery. 

Lewis hates EVs.  😆

Leadership candidate Lewis is a total crackpot conspiratard.

Lewis claims the WHO could impose lockdowns and restrictions in Canada as it sees fit, and could restrict the types of medications doctors could prescribe.

"It could give power for … the WHO to determine whether or not [in] a country like Canada, whether you'd be able to travel within or outside the country depending on the severity of the pandemic," said Lewis, who holds a PhD in international law from York University.

Lewis also claimed the treaty would allow the WHO to suspend the constitutions of signatory nations.

"Think about it — you would not be able to hold your elected officials accountable for the action of the WHO," she said. "It is essentially eroding our democracy."

'They just don't have the power to do that'

"This is nothing more than fearmongering. There is nothing to support these really strong assertions," said Prof. Timothy Caulfield, Canada Research Chair in Health Law and Policy at the University of Alberta.

Conservatives realizing Poilievre’s conspiracies are probably going to win him the leadership….  and lose them the chance to form government. 

Quote
The people Poilievre is pitching to with this message truly believe this shadowy organization has actual power in Canada and those who have attended have been indoctrinated by Schwab. I don’t think Stephen Harper was when he spoke to the forum about the need to control government debt, rein in spending and make decisions for future economic growth and prosperity.

In his 2012 address, Harper took his vision for where western democratic countries should be heading directly to those business and government leaders. Harper spoke of the investment climate his government was creating, the need to be able to export our energy to Asia and beyond, the need to reform social programs so that they were on a solid footing instead of following Europe’s path to fiscal instability.

Under a Poilievre government, Canada wouldn’t be selling itself on one of the most important stages in the world.

Poilievre is a smart man; he knows that what he’s saying on this file is nothing but gibberish. He doesn’t need to flirt with and encourage the acceptance of conspiracy theories to win the leadership, but that’s what he’s doing.

What the hell?? I've never heard of the Sun publishing an anti-conservative leader column like that.

Want some sad entertainment?  Read the comments at the bottom of the article.  It’s a shitshow of crackpots advocating the crazy conspiracies!

Saskatchewan MP Cathay Wagantall was escorted off Parliament Hill

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/conservative-mp-house-removed-1.6477120

Quote
Wagantall said that after she entered the building, the Sergeant-at-Arms asked to speak to her in his office. She didn't offer details of that conversation but said that as she headed to the Commons chamber, Conservative House leader John Brassard warned her that there might be action to remove her if she left the Commons.

"So my goal was to not leave unless I was basically forced to," she said.

Wagantall said that when she left the building to attend a 1 p.m. Veterans Affairs committee meeting, the Sergeant-at-Arms escorted her off Parliament Hill to her car. She ended up attending the meeting virtually.

Wagantall — who also cannot board a plane or train because of vaccination rules — said she's been driving to Ottawa from her riding in Saskatchewan. She said she has not been in her Parliament Hill office since November of last year.

Another crackpot Conservative MP.

I think we all agree that anti-vaxxers are stupid.

But at this point there's no longer any justification for a vaccine mandate in Parliament.  You can have 18000 people in a hockey arena without vaccine mandates, but not 300 or so MPs?  Come on.

Air travel, too. It's just theatre at this point.

With the re-election of DoFo in Ontario, we'll see a rift in the two major Conservative leaders in the country.

Pierre P will not find an ally in much of Ontario. I really hope Patrick Brown can win the leadership race.
