OTTAWA -- The Conservative Party of Canada has a new leader. His name is Erin O’Toole and he won the party’s leadership raceHis victory came in part due to key support in the prairie provinces and Quebec, a strong social media presence, and his welcoming of the range of viewpoints within the party.
The Ontario MP takes the helm of the federal Conservative parliamentary caucus of MPs at a key time, one that could see him running to be Canada’s next prime minister as soon as a month from now.he made the pitch to non-Conservative voters to “socially distance themselves” from their political affiliations and consider his party.
In his victory speech early Monday, O’Toole spelled out how he plans to lead an effective Official Opposition, including continuing to “point out Liberal failings and corruption.” Expect O’Toole to reconfigure his front bench ahead of the new session of Parliament getting underway on Sept. 23. Typically, new leaders like to shuffle the deck of their critic portfolios, or “shadow cabinet” to reward MPs who backed them in the campaign.
To keep throwing darts at the opposition like the POS Scheer did before him.
He promised to not socially distance or wear a mask and have more than 10 people for a party.
CTVAtlantic Show up for work?
Step one: defeat JT. Step two: crickets
CTV 🤮
I note that AnnieClaireBO's report stated in error that Peter MacKay was 'co-founder of the Progressive Conservative Party'. No, MacKay sold out the 'Progressive' Conservatives to Harper who created the CPC_HQ,aka the Canadian Republican Party. cdnpoli cdnmedia CTVKitchener
Doesn’t matter, he is not getting elected..
CTVAtlantic Promises to complain about Trudeau. 😡
He promises to increase racial profiling and xenophobia and reduce funding to veterans and old age pension, and to stick to dem libtards. Did I cover everything? It's the same with every con government
Defund the CBC and not be princess Trudy. Good enough me.
Bring back manufacturing and resource development so we dont all live in a 3rd world dump
How he gave the Premier's all the credit and the Federal Government nothing is such a disingenuous statement and the reason people are sick of politicians.
'two files close to the former Air Force pilot'. First, O'Toole was not a pilot. He was a Navigator. Second, you might have also compared his promises with respect to veterans to what he actually did when he was Minister of Veterans Affairs. cdnpoli
So a dirtier environment and easier access to guns I figured were a given so I’m out right there.
He promised to DefundCBC. He'll landslide into victory for PM on that alone! Haha
Masks? Social distancing? Holding hands with Andrew 😧, bad on so many fronts!
Where are your masks people?
Nothing, just whined about Trudeau. Same story different narrator.
Same as any other tory leader “to be an asshole”
DO NOT make the same mistake US media made, giving hate-filled, divisive statements from him air time🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘
He promises to take us into the 1930’s!!!
Obviously they have given up on the western strategy. Sorry Alberta the cpc has abandoned you now
So far, all I have heard is the usual political jargon and rhetoric. Example - We will work hard for you....
Defund fakenews CBCNews
Get the country back on track after the disasters of the past 4 plus years?
Nothing?
Well I learned nothing from this article...
Win, then remove CCP spy infiltration in out schools, government and media, looking at you👀CCPTV, would be a good start.
Erin is a dude?
CTVAtlantic Act like Trump and take Canada back.
Can't wait till he kicks Prime Minister Fancy Socks to 3rd party status.
Maple flavoured MAGA is still MAGA.
Is it a coincidence when someone's margin of success coincides with his IQ? Asking for a non-extrapolating Reformacon
Probably promised to start burning witches again.
I’ll take “lose the next federal election” for $200, Alex.
Make Canada Great Again
It doesn’t matter. He won’t do it anyway.
That's a very unfortunate looking family. Hope we wont have to see much of them
Not wear a mask? not social distance?
What's scary is O'Toole has been pretty moderate his entire career, but has now veered sharply right to appeal to the regressive conservatives who he needed to win. How hard will he continue to push that agenda to keep their support, even to the detriment of the country?
No masks! No social distancing!
