Pierre Poilievre: “My experience with corporate lobbyists in Ottawa is that they are utterly useless.”
Text: Since 2022, Pierre Poilievre has hosted more than 100 corporate lobbyists at closed-door fundraising events.
Poilievre: “The corporate lobbyists in Ottawa are focused on getting lunches with ministers at the Rideau Club.”
Text: They’re also focussed on getting dinners with Poilievre at every other private club:
Toronto Club, January, 2023.
Arlington Estates, April, 2023.
Terminal City Club, March, 2023.
Royal Glenora Club, April, 2023.
National Club, September, 2023.
Poilievre: “When I’m prime Minister my obsession—my daily obsession—will be about what is good for the working class people of this country.”
Text: Do these fundraising spots look working class to you?

Just like so many Americans, This Canadian is sick and tired of governments that are completely Non-representative of the People that elected Them. WE can, and MUST, do BETTER by waking up to that Fact!!!
Looks like the pot is calling the kettle black!
He a jerk to the enth degree, and an untruthful leach to boot. He has been a political welfare bum since he joined the political hand out line. I couldn’t stand Mulroney, Harper and now he is just a Trump of the north. But again we have too many unintelligent Cdns who think he is going to save us from the Liberals. And what a joke that is as well. All he does is point fingers, stirs trouble, whines like a child and has no ideas to share with anyone that are worthwhile. He is as unintelligent as his friend in Alberta who has an IQ less than ?? 100. How is it that stupid people get in as politicians? I shake my head in disgust and despair.
Poilievre is a 1st class sleaze-ball and bullshitter. Canada has been accorded the title of the most pollution-causing country on the planet; Skippy’s home province being the worst in Canada where they dump raw sewage directly into the St. Lawrence. You can smell the stink from it an hour before seeing it. He doesn’t have one single suggestion on how he plans to clean up the environment and in the half dozen e-mails I sent him for his environmental plans, I haven’t heard a word. Pierre Poilievre, Donald Trump’s protege in Canada. Both are worthless. PS: He also plans to screw over senior citizens!
His current fundraiser has raised more than any other time in the Conservative party
