Pierre Poilievre cheerleads for the Ottawa Occupation

from NOW and NEXT · host Dave Trafford

Pierre Poilievre says he's running to be Canada's next prime minister, skipping right over the need for him to win the leadership of the Conservative Party of Canada. He's either ignoring or taking for granted the will and intention of the party. His candidacy announcement flirts with the fringes of facts and and champions the language of the Ottawa occupiers. It's a string of cliches and bumper sticker tactics. What does it mean to be "the freest people on Earth?" What's clear in all of this, the fringe among the "freedom" convoy aren't listening to the fact checked mainstream media. They are listening to Poilievre. And he's already setting media as the enemy. Buckle up. This is going to be one of the messiest periods of politics in this country.You can watch OR listen to this episode on our YouTube Channel (Be sure to subscribe!)Follow Dave on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and XAnd you can leave us a voice comment here!For more information go to Dave's website.
