You're not wrong. But I don't want any part of the right wing politics right now Based on the stuff that PP spouts on an almost daily basis - we don't need him or his ilk running this country

https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2023/03/14/poilievre-lawsuit-big-pharma-opioid-crisis/ Pollievere plans on being a very busy PM Latest: he's going to sue Big Pharma, in order to raise funds - which HE will use to fight the opiod crisis I mean, he could save time and just start the lawsuit immediately (sarcasm)

I am just surprised to hear similar rhetoric from Singh and the NDP (public inquiry, cover up, blah, blah, blah) Their points in QP are not much different from the Conservative talking points And yes, both parties must be aware that QP is not a place where such questions can legally be answered

Ok, so it was a senator. I couldn't quite imagine a currently sitting MP calling out their leader. That's an excellent article - maybe someone could read it to Pollievere

To the point of referring to two Liberal ministers as 'two stooges.' Start listening at 5:00. In my opinion, the speaker needs to remove Polliviere from QP, at some point.

Canadian Politics
I did hear it from Cloutier on CJOB & various journalists on CBC. I think Trudeau should've said 'yes' when Polliviere was pushing him during question period. And then let's have a conversation about what's actually going on.

Canadian Politics
I guess the only question is: is this resonating only with his base? Or is it carrying further? Anyone that really wants to, can look up the opinion of someone like Colin Robertson (he was on CJOB). It's quite clear what's going on: foreign countries are influencing areas with high recent immigrant populations - to vote for their party of choice China does it, Dubai does it, others do it too.

It's hard when you can never give up a bad goal - when was the last time the team bailed him out?

I mean, they claim to be about balanced budgets, but there is always some reason for why that doesn't happen With all those federal transfers, a balanced provincial budget was gift wrapped for them But no...taxes must be cut.

For the record, only 4 provinces have Canadian History as a compulsory subject in Highschool: Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and Nova Scotia

Some provinces have CH as a compulsory subject in grade 11 Others say you satisfy the requirements - as long as you take some type of grade 11 Social Studies course Manitoba: Grade 4: a unit on the History of Manitoba Grade 5: First Nations - Confederation Grade 6: Confederation up to the Current era (Including an extensive government unit, which is really annoying to teach to 11 and 12 year olds) Grade 9: Contemporary Canada Grade 11: a full Canadian History course

Yeah well, I never went beyond being a goalie at recess ball hockey games. But I had a hockey stick in my bedroom - used pretend I was Jean Beliveau - winning all the faceoffs.

It's compulsory in MB, I teach it every year. I also teach Canadian Law and get pretty solid enrollment each time. #dowhatyoucan It is what it is, it's not going to change. AB politicians need to lobby for more seats. Instead of chanting "triple, triple, triple" in question period.

It's a historic agreement that was made in 1873 - when they joined Confederation - enticement tactics from Old John A. Estoppel and long - term legal precedence would make changing that number very difficult, if not impossbile
