Pierre Poilievre was asked in the #LeadersDebate why he still refuses to get the normal security check & clearance. Poilievre lied as usual in his answer, starting with the lie that he “already got one so there’s no problem with that.”

10 years ago.

That’s not how clearances work and he knows it.
Reminder: Pierre Poilievre STILL refuses to apply for the normal, usual security clearance, the Canadian media is STILL under-reporting that, and I’m STILL choosing to assume under these dangerous and scary circumstances that it’s because he knows that he wouldn’t pass the security check.
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith asked US administration to "put things on pause" to help Poilievre get elected as PM x.com/cspotweet/st...

Canadian researchers should be very concerned by Poilievre's promise to politicize federal research funding in Canada by ending supposedly mandatory 'woke ideology.'

“any strategic shift would be challenging due to “the basic unlikability of Poilievre right now,” the Tory strategist told an Empire Club audience that included some visibly rattled federal Conservatives.
“He looks too much like Trump. He sounds too much like Trump. He uses the lexicon of Trump,”

Pierre Poilievre has been in politics for 20 years, he's written 0 legislation; has one of the highest pensions in government. He's voted against the environment & climate nearly 400 times, derailed legislation to benefit workers, and voted against affordable housing initiatives.

Canada, don’t hand control of your country over to its enemies (like we did).
WATCH: The gloves are off! It’s been an under-reported scandal for quite a while that Pierre Poilievre refuses to apply for security clearance. It was a scandal EVEN BEFORE the most recent efforts to undermine Canada’s democracy, sovereignty and economy from Trump, Musk and the GOP.
