poilievre is now a DEI hire exactly in the way the cons lie and misrepresent DEI hires

Nauseating. Fuck this fascist POS and his followers. A coward and a hypocrite.

They picked that riding for a reason. The Cons got 81.8% of the vote in the recent election in that riding.

I wish we had the requirement that you must LIVE in the riding you're running for and have lived there the past 2 years at least. Should also have to live there the entire time in office as well.

Sweet another chance to take that one from him too

All the people that thought Poilievre would not continue as the opposition leader need a wake up call. You still don't understand what you're fighting against. Cult of personality is a major pillar of fascism, and loyalty (to the leader, not to the country) is the most valuable trait. Poilievre had a few humiliating defeats but he's still gaining grounds for the CPC, and the conservative wave is still on it sway, bolder and with lots of resentments piled up.

Take this seriously. The enemy doesn't have to be smart or competent, they just need to amass power. https://www.antihate.ca/40ways

Holy shit do they not want him to lose again.

"The Conservatives handily won that riding on Monday with nearly 82 per cent of the vote."

They picked one of the safest ridings in the country so that there's no chance of that happening.

I assume he's being paid off by the Conservative party somehow. Otherwise he just spent a lot of time and money to get re-elected and is now unemployed.

If I just voted for someone and then they quit to allow someone else to run and I needed to go vote AGAIN just for some power play I would be fucking pissed. Hopefully these voters are as well.

Voters rejected PP.

It seems like this other Conservative isn't confident in their own ability to act as an MP. And it doesn't look good to give your seat up to a loser.

Fuck off. How the fuck is this kind of bullshit allowed? He lost! He shouldn’t get to swap out with someone. Wtf

I hope he loses

So the unemployed loser went to daddy for a handout. I want to know how much he paid the other guy for switching places.

On Friday, the Conservative Party announced Conservative MP-elect Damien Kurek will resign to allow Poilievre to run in an upcoming byelection.

Kurek was first elected in the Alberta riding of Battle River—Crowfoot in 2019.

The Conservatives handily won that riding on Monday with nearly 82 per cent of the vote.

Of course it's Alberta and solidly blue.

Something something safe space, something something inclusion, something something participation trophy.

Dude hasn't had a real job, so having things handed to him like this is prob second nature for him.

Where's the Rhinoceros Party when you need them? There's no chance in hell that riding flips for the Liberals, and likely not for the NDP, but an independent running on a platform of "hear me out, this will be hilarious" just might stand a chance.
