Pierre Poilievre’s support of the trucker convoy in 2022 helped him win the Conservative leadership, and, ever since, he has stuck with the people whose fury fueled his rise. But that same approach is hurting him ahead of this month’s federal election.

    I live close to Parliament and I’ve already seen idiots with “F🍁CK CARNEY” flags waving them out front. Theres a few people who never really left after the convoy and I gotta wonder how they have the free time to spend every day out there.

      You’re assuming they’re doing this in their free time. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were being supported by foreign interests hiding behind a gofundme campaign—in other words, this is their job.
