Canadian Conservatives, still punching themselves in the teeth to please people who will never vote for them.
This is the most despicable thing I’ve seen from John Rustad yet. And after the last two months, that’s saying a lot.
He knows that Dallas Brodie never mocked victims of abuse.
Brodie could sue him into oblivion but it looks his political career will get him there first. https://t.co/M7SP9O1qxE

I am a British Columbian.
If you wonder why the NDP won the last provincial election look no further than the lib carpet baggers who took over the Conservative Party.
In B.C. like federal all you have to vote for is left wing.
Sort of like the Soviet Union. When they had elections there were options. Unfortunately they were all communists.
“If you wonder why the NDP won the last provincial election look no further than the lib carpet baggers who took over the Conservative Party.”
Exactly. I read about this earlier today and was thoroughly disgusted by it…and I voted for these people last election.
Geez. In modern Canadian Conservative circles saying there are no graves when there are no graves is even worse than meeting with Christine Anderson.
I believe in free speech, but/however/here’s the thing
Which of course means you don’t.
Background??
Agree with each of these comments! PP is trying to tap into the TDS crowd at his peril.
CONs= Stupid?
I’m building one big MF boat, any one in here wanna buy a ticket?
With your ingenuity, that boat would probably sink before leaving the harbor.
GYM’s going to build that boat with his nail gun.
We are so screwed:
“We need to keep the counter-tariffs in place until the president removes all tariffs, forever, for Canadians,” Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre told reporters.
https://torontosun.com/news/national/poilievre-says-keep-counter-tariffs-in-place-despite-white-house-walkback
It’s ok when we do it. Canadian tariffs on American products pre Trump. Milk, Cheese and Butter are real beauts.
70% chicken sausage
58% Barley
26.5% meat
25% on cars
45%HVAC
35% vacuums
35% cable boxes
45% TVs
25% steel
45% aluminum
48% copper
270% milk
245% cheese
298% butter
Which makes Canadians real hypocrites for condemning Trump’s tariffs. And it also reveals why Canucks pay so much more for so many things.
“…for Canadians.”
Uni-party indeed.
Under the trade agreement that Trump demanded and signed in his first term (calling it the best trade deal ever made in the world) there is a quota on how much of those items can be brought into Canada duty free. Only when those quotas are exceeded do those tariffs come into effect.
This is the deal that Trump himself agreed to. I admire him, I applaud everything he’s doing except when it comes to trade, he’s totally out to lunch. His tariffs not only hurt the countries he imposes them on, they hurt the American consumers who are the ones who have to pay them.
There are times when tariffs are fair, such as during his first term, when he put tariffs on German autos. Germany had a 60% (not sure of the exact amount) tariff on American cars, so he threatened a reciprocal tariff. Germany immediately caved and dropped their tariff.
Those “fair” tariffs you speak of hurt Canadians and Americans.
Your hypocrisy is off the scale.
yeahwell, there is no hypocrisy in anything I posted.
And just what is unfair about the fair tariff example I mentioned?
Allow me to speculate for a moment.
The deal that Trump signed during his first term was probably inspired by the people negotiating it.
Trump himself postulated that he didn’t have enough experience with the DC crowd during his first term, and we’ve seen it all happen for ourselves when, for example, he brought in the likes of the war monger John Bolton.
During his time off during the last 4 years, Trump may have had the opportunity to reflect on those negotiations and realize that America got taken for a ride again.
Trump has resolved not to make the same mistake again, which I would surmise the reason for the tough talk on trade.
My concern now is that Trump is losing credibility with his tough talk every time he postpones the implementing of tariffs.
Thoughts?
“My concern now is that Trump is losing credibility with his tough talk every time he postpones the implementing of tariffs.”
I think he’s trying to ensure that domestic industry is ready for them when they kick in. You can bet that Trump’s cabinet is talking to industry leaders.
Trump had a cut throat trade negotiator in his first term, I had a video back then that showed how he worked. He re-did trade deals all over the world. Can’t find that vid now, too bad.
Burton, do you have a link for those figures?
Not doubting you; I just know if I try to tell that to some lefty acquaintances, they’ll start screaming PROOF! before I even hit send. 😉
Cheers
It’ll take some doing but I’ll rustle it up for you.
Btw…I’ve heard the same numbers from both Canadian and American sources.
Thanks Burton, appreciate that… especially “rustling” the numbers up (play on my name). 🙂
And no rush my good man. I’m retired and no longer in a hurry. 😉
Cheers
Yeah, we got FAFO’ed by Trump.
I take back my remark about him being the least worst. You have nothing but abysmal candidates (yes, including Bernier, who is a joke that goes nowhere).
Idiot is scalp hunting his own tribe FOR the commies using the dullest-knife-dumbest psy-op Canada’s permanent ruling class has tried in generations.
What a POS.
I also heard two “Conservative” MLAs quit the caucus in support of Dalias. The Peace River MLA said he was going to start a new party.
The other MLA is Tara Armstrong in Kelowna. Here is what she posted on FB today.
I’m leaving the Conservative Party of BC.
British Columbia voted for me and other BC Conservative MLAs because we promised to stand up for them and for what is right, no matter the cost.
But under John Rustad’s leadership, one compromise after another has transformed that party into something I no longer recognize.
He’s abandoned the truth and his moral compass in a quest for power. And the reality is, he will end up with neither.
No one was surprised when David Eby attacked Dallas Brodie for telling the truth about Kamloops. But John Rustad’s cowardly decision to stab her in the back revealed just how corrupt he has become.
And, as I will be sharing further in the coming days, this betrayal was just the tip of the iceberg.
British Columbia faces unprecedented dangers. Our economy is soaked in debt. Our businesses are being strangled by taxes, tariffs, and hostile interests within the reconciliation industry.
It is time we break free.
We have never needed courage and truth more than we do today.
And we have never needed each other more either. I am here to serve my community and all British Columbians.
Keep fighting. Fight for the truth. For integrity. And for every business and worker in this beautiful province that depends upon us!
It’s funny as hell to see Conservatives still mincing along to the drum-beats of Joostaihn’s bought-and-paid-for media … the same media that pee-pee says he’s going to defund.
Funnier yet to see them cheerleading our supply management in the dairy sector.
His action was bad, his reaction was ever worse. He tried to use a three second cut of her interview to misrepresent her. He’s not just wrong, he’s crooked.
I had a lot of faith in him, and I donated to, voted for and boosted him. More fool I.
Indeed, NEVER trust a politician, they will turn on a dime.
Look at Polievre right now. He sounded great until 2 months ago, now, if you closed your eyes, one would think he’s a Liberal candidate.
NEVER trust.
Rustad said she mocked the victims of abuse, including child sexual abuse.
SHE DID NOT.
I saw the vid of the words he referred to. They had absolutely nothing to do with abuse of any kind, she was clearly referring to the false claim of dead kids buried at KRS.
Rustad has just become the best friend the NDP could ever hope for, destroying any chance of the Conservatives ever forming government by catering to the Indian industry and the media that supports them. Fool! After acting like a true conservative and gaining so much, he caves to woke pressure and adopts Liberal values.
Canada is lead by people who are willing to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian. Do not doubt that they’re willing to fight Trump to the last solvent Canadian.
“Stupid” and LAZY
PP’s too tired to even talk to Rebel News.
Kamala of the North
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGk2n2IMz_Y
PP should not be talking to Rebel News. Rebel News is a fund raising organization. What grift do you want to donate to this week? Who are they suing this week? PP had more people at his convention in London yesterday than the Liberals had at their so called leadership convention aka coronation. If you are looking to vote in a Trump like figure in Canada, you will lose every time. This country is centrist at best. IMHO
Could’ve had Max! 😉
When do you think your glorious leaders (any party) are going to boycott Made in China? Where will ‘Team Canada’ be? Will you boo their national anthem? Will you cheer when your leaders talk about open war against them?
Will you tell the Chinese that your are not for sale?
https://apnews.com/article/china-canada-retaliatory-tariffs-agricultural-products-trade-d35f11cd9612b25283f202a8a59be859
Or are your leaders (all the way down to dog catcher) already annexed?
A true leader knows that “advisors” – especially 25 year-old poli-sci grads – are not “directors “.
Turdo la first new it, Harris knew it, and so did Levesque and Ralphie. They treated the media with the contempt it deserved … and deserves.
Billboard Chris and MLA Tara Armstrong provide further details of this travesty by BCC and Rustad. I’m a bit floored but resigned to another conservative party drifting left, trying to please its enemies.

“The MLAs who are willing to tell simple truths without fear of reprisal need to form a new party!”
That would be perhaps a Party of one or two. And at the federal level, if we use the wave of ovinity that swept the entire H of C during the Wuhan flu as an indicator, it would be a Party of none.
The litmus test of political success is that as the “party” approaches actual power, the moral cowardice increases exponentially. We have essentially reached the point where brutal honesty makes one either unelectable or unacceptable to electable parties. The captured institutions (including all professional monopoly-granted governing bodies) all tout the same list of lies and myths: indigenous knowledge in “everything” in addition to now forgotten stone-age survival skills; the horrors of residential schools; climate hysteria: Islamophobia and moderate Islam; safe and effective COVID vaccinations, CRT, DEI, ESG, and every other Cultural Marxist weapon against reason and western civilization.
There is no opposition to the Uni-Party of Can Ahh Duh.
Not at the federal level nor at the provincial.
Canadians know this,so party fund raising is flat.
When the Truckers provided genuine political opposition to our fools and bandits,all 338 of them,Canadians rewarded them.
No political Party in Canada can raise $10 million in just 3 days,twice..
Because no Canadian believes anything they say.
The definition of insanity is doing exactly the same thing,over and over again..Expecting a different outcome.
Voting for “The Least Evil”,only gets one result.
More evil.
We’re past the point of elections effecting change.
It’s too late.
Prepare accordingly.
