Conservatives fear 'dysfunctional' campaign and 'civil war' in the party: sources cbc.ca/news/politics/conservat CBC by Catherine Cullen, Kate McKenna, and John Paul Tasker -

Wow- it seems there are some cracks in the foundation... "One Conservative suggested the tension — not only between Teneycke and Byrne but also between the Ontario and federal Conservative leaders — amounts to a "civil war" within the Conservative movement."

[Canada] This idiot: Pierre Poilievre Signals Plan to Extend Government Subsidies to Right-Wing Media Websites 🤔 🤬

@taleeb The only thing broken in Canada is the #ConservativeParty. Especially its leaders, handpicked by #ChairmanHarper who have proved consistently that their goal is to undermine Canada. The only loyalty they have is to themselves and their own desire for power. #PP is a prime example. He attacks with slander, spews slick slogans but has absolutely nothing of substance to offer. He’s #MapleMAGA emulating #TrumpianTactics to enrich himself and manipulate us with propaganda

This global rightward shift is truly unfortunate.

"The #LiberalParty has been losing #Jewish community support quickly since #October7, 2023, although cracks in the relationship appeared earlier.

“For years, many #Canadian #Jews voted #Liberal,” Perez explained. “But more recently, they’ve been shifting en masse to the #ConservativeParty. The Jewish community felt that #Trudeau’s response to the widespread #antisemitic demonstrations across #Canada was too weak and too slow. And even when he did speak, his words came across as hollow—just talk, with no meaningful action.”

Ford threatens to cut off #Ontario's #EnergySupply to U.S. if Trump follows through on tariffs :bl46:

Not a huge fan of Ford or his #ConservativeParty by any means, but at least they are politicians who have some actual knowledge and understanding about how economies work.

"We will go to the full extent depending (on) how far this goes. We will go to the extent of cutting off their energy, going down to #Michigan, going down to #NewYorkState, and over to #Wisconsin. I don't want this to happen, but my number one job is to protect Ontario, #Ontarians and #Canadians as a whole since we're the largest province," Ford said.
😂 🤣

OOPS!! :ablobcatwave:

#OntarioPremier #DougFord said he told his fellow premiers and the prime minister that #Canada needs to ‘be ready to fight’ as president-elect #DonaldTrump threatens to hit this country with #Tariffs. Ford participated in a virtual meeting with all premiers and #PrimeMinister_JustinTrudeau Wednesday about U.S.-Canada relations ahead of Trump's return to the White House. #AmericanPolitics #CanadianPolitics
