The Conservative Party of Canada has deleted a video that was meant to promote its Canadian values but featured images of what the Defence Minister’s office says are Russian fighter jets.
The video in question was posted by the party on X on Saturday with the slogan “Canada. Our Home” and featured a speech delivered by leader Pierre Poilievre from the Calgary Stampede. “They’re doing a training mission in the sky, getting ready to defend our home and native land,” Poilievre said.The two jets that appeared in the video as Poilievre delivered that line were Russian Su-17 and Su-27 jets, according to Defence Minister Bill Blair’s spokesman.“Shockingly, Mr. Poilievre’s dream for Canada includes Russian fighter jets flying over our glorious Prairies on a ‘training mission,'” Daniel Minden said in a statement Monday.
