Recording link of the quote there’s also a link in the article but it goes to Breitbart Soundcloud account :
“Before the tariff war, I would say yes. I mean, Pierre Poilievre is the name of the Conservative Party leader, and he was miles ahead of Justin Trudeau. But because of what we see as unjust and unfair tariffs, it’s actually caused an increase in the support for the liberals,” Smith responded. “And so that’s what I fear, is that the longer this dispute goes on, politicians posture, and it seems to be benefiting the Liberals right now. So I would hope that we could put things on pause is what I’ve told administration officials. Let’s just put things on pause so we can get through an election.”
Pierre would bring would be very much in sync with, I think…the new direction in America,
I think that’s extremely reasonable. I’d love to have MMR or another form of PR but sadly we do not have that. It’s extremely reasonable to vote strategically to keep the CPC out of power. I live in BC and my district is competitive for the LPC and NDP so I’m sure as fuck not voting LPC… but if I were in the interior I’d definitely vote for whoever had more momentum to beat the CPC candidate.
On that note… this is a time to make your voice heard advocating for voting reform to make sure the CPC never threaten a national victory without seriously reforming their platform.
