If there isn't a Liberal campaign ad featuring Danielle Smith's voice saying that "the perspective that Pierre would bring would be very much in sync with, I think…the new direction in America,” within the next few days, someone should be fired.
Danielle Smith is one of Pierre Poilievre's biggest fans. She also just torpedoed his election campaign.

What the leader of the U.S. is saying is indefensible; as a Canadian, I am horrified and outraged.
Laura Ingraham: You’re tougher with Canada than you are with some of our biggest adversaries. Why?
Trump: “Only because it’s meant to be our 51st state…One of the nastiest countries to deal with is Canada”
Go ahead, MAGA—try to defend this.

Fantastic, Canada! Keep up the great work! Talk to everyone you know & ask them what they like about Trump Puppet / Musk Muppet PoiLIEvre. Then point out what a failure PP is when compared to Mark Carney. If you want leadership, experience, intelligence & integrity, you HAVE to choose Carney.
