Dickish comment from a dickish guy.
Tell us Poilievre, what would you do if you were PM & first nations had concerns about pipelines going through their traditional land?
Would you just go ahead & do whatever Danielle Smith/Trump wanted?

Oh my gosh, how adorable. Love to see these juvies with their big feet & bright eyes. I've seen an occasional new bird variety or two around my backyard too leaving me puzzled on an i.d. House Sparrows bring their kids to show them off & some of them do the flapping wings, open beak pleading at me.

Yup, and he pretty much let everyone know that while he was campaigning. "If you vote for me you'll never have to vote again."

It was at a library so not sure what their capacity is - I know there's support for separation but percentage wise, I honestly don't believe they have the numbers. Most of those supporters are 51st staters anyway. They can head South & don't let the border hit them on the ass on their way out.
