    1. 100% of the “Conservative” MPs including Poiliviere and Bergen voted for Trudeau’s authoritarin conversion therapy bill because they were afraid of being called names. They can’t be trusted to stick to their principles when the heat is on.

    1. SHE WENT OUT AND CONNECTED WITH THE BRAVEHEARTS OUTSIDE PARLIAMENT DOORS!!! That means SOMETHING to the rest of Canadians. 🇨🇦🇨🇦

  1. Awesome!! She was so candid and real I enjoy her debates it’s refreshing to see someone speak up with a back bone.. and she knows the real Canadians.. ❤

    1. @Ted Poplawski You are absolutely right. But one could expand that cluelessness beyond Canada’s Conservatives. It is typical of almost all Conservatives.

    2. @Herb W and you think the lieberals under the corrupt, unethical blackface have a clue? As clueless as a Canadian government in history, economically, socially etc.

    3. @garry w that would be kind of pointless. If she was going to run for the leadership, she wouldn’t have bothered to put her name forward as interim leader. Think about it…

    1. @Ted Jones ….and will take every opportunity to explain to them why they should accept him as one of their own….

  2. Congrats, great news. Hope she and Pierre together can win the hearts and MIND of Canadians voters so we can see a change in a Canadian government and leadership of the whole country. Finally politicians that have a spine and defined position

    2. @Lillian Matthew no they havent. You mindless drones dont get a hero cookie for sounding close on issues.

      You should get a therapist though.

    1. I’ve never commented so much before. I am excited for her to start. We need some competency in the government to get things back in order.

    2. I like how Trudeau and his followers claim to be fighting for women but whenever a woman stands up against him him and his followers will say/do things they claim to be fighting against.

  3. Every person O’Toole kicked needs to be invited back, and O’Toole needs to be kicked right out of the party.

  4. This is a wonderful moment where we have someone that we trust being our mouth piece. Candice is brill!

  5. So glad to see this. You deserve it, can’t wait to see how you will move through this time. I have been so impressed by both you and Poilievre over these past few days.

    1. Pierre is a JT killer.. been watching him for about a year.. Candice is a awesome speaker.. the 2 of them are awesome

  6. So glad to see this happening! As a Canadian small glimpses of hope are starting to shine through the cracks! Candice is a firecracker, well spoken, strong woman! 👍🇨🇦👏👏

  7. She’s more than qualified. She doesn’t back down, respected by the West and isn’t scared of Trudeau.

  8. Finally picked a conservative to lead the conservative party. Congratulations to you on a well deserved promotion. There maybe hope for the conservative party after all.
