Charlie Angus on Standing Up to Trump and Poilievre's Disinformation

[@jjjenkins2008]

Why is the Canadian media not amplifying this speech?

[@Lin-Lin2559]

Because they are chicken sh*t just like the American media and it pisses me off. Most people will never hear this speech unfortunately

[@bluehibiscus502]

Because they're all anti Trudeau. And I'm not defending him btw.

[@hopesprings4967]

The Americans are. Meidas Touch did a nice piece on this! Typical of our Hedgefund American owned media. While the Cons are busy eviscerating JT and using DJT and his Merry band of kooks tactics Canada is a failure…Canada is shit line, Trudeau is not respected by world leaders. Baloney watch the stink eye Trump got in France. NO ONE likes or trusts him and I imagine it would be much the same with the member that lives in Stornoway…the 19 room mansion😅 I am soooo sick of listening to the putdowns of Canada by Pollievre. All the man can do is bitch. He only ever says negative things never comes up with a positive alternative. The whole strategy of the conservative is the same as Donald Trump… apocalyptic.

[@josephsmith594]

Today’s media has abandoned intelligent and complex discourse. They’d rather spend an entire week on Trump making a dumb joke. Why does Poilievre want to axe the carbon tax, which disproportionately impacts large companies instead of individuals, but have no interest in reducing income taxes? No one even asks. And the public just consumes manipulative social media driven false narratives, as the media abdicates all journalistic integrity in favour of ratings and appeasement to the openly hostile Conservative Party.

These are challenging times for Canada. As Pierre Trudeau aptly observed, "Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant... one is affected by every twitch and grunt." Unfortunately, Pierre Poilievre is not acting in Canadians' best interests. As Charlie Angus pointed out, Justin Trudeau's policies often fall short. Now is the time to set politics aside and assert to Donald Trump that Canada is a respected and equal partner with a strong history of collaboration with the U.S. Above all, we will act to protect our sovereignty and serve Canadians.

Hell yesss👏👏 We.are.not.americans. We are Canadians💪🇨🇦

[@bryandoehler8962]

Very well said. Pierre Poilievre's recent actions are a disgrace. The one thing that a politician should never do is to put their career ahead of the good of the country.

[@ultime321]

Yes politicians should not put their career ahead of thr country. Unfortunately we have a narcissist for a PM who puts his own goals and interests ahead while actively destroying Canada. Then we have the leader of the NDP enabling him so he can get his pension. And you think Pollievre is disgraceful?

[@bryandoehler8962]

@ultime321 Nonsense. Trudeau did the exact opposite. Remember the Trans mountain expansion? Trudeau got it built dispite the objections in BC. That cost the Liberals support in BC and gained them little in Alberta. Politically it was a bad move for Trudeau, but it was good for Canada.

[@philiplee1235]

Shameful behaviour by a so called leader of the Conservatives.

Thank you Charlie. I deeply appreciate you standing up for Canada, it's values, and the Canadians who continue to embody them. We will stand up for those values. We will not be bowed by the vicious stupidity and spiteful hatefulness and hypocrisy of PP and his supporters. Not on my watch. I stand behind you. I stand with you.

[@nil7148]

Thank you for saying exactly how I feel and PP very bad and I hope that he never ever becomes our PM.

[@ScooterMacduff]

🇨🇦✊ I freakin LOVE this guy! ❤

[@bobbobofalberta9058]

Got your back Charlie! Right man...in the right place...at the right time. You are saying the right things. Keep Going!

[@carlosdelpozo1886]

Thank you Mr. Angus, your words speak volumes and need to be heard and amplified, please continue to speak up so many more Americans can hear your message. I am still recovering from the results of our Elections here in America, but the better half of America will take back our country sooner than later. Hopefully those who voted for Trump will learn a lesson and hopefully next time they will vote for a someone that is good and decent, but for now we all will have to pay the price until we can take this type of cancer out of our politics. God bless you and your country.

Very well said, Mr. Angus! 👏👏👏 Thank you!!! 🙏❤

[@pokonono1]

Canada is pissed off. Last time around, the retaliatory tariffs helped. We will do that again with even better results. Any way this works out it will be bad for Canada. If we feel we are fighting back you will have Canadian support.

[@ryancarley]

Charlie is the genuine article. Let's do this.

[@Boomsterblak]
