  1. I hear a a game of Jean Charades beginning. Imagine a cooked turkey on a platter. Pierre is roasting Charade a d now Charade is WELL DONE

  2. Pierre is savage that’s what a strong leader we need. Charest is too old and not to be trusted, he act like liberal pretending to conservative.

    1. You can clearly tell Charest actually agreed with him deep down when he called him an undercover liberal he just stood and there awkwardly laughed without projecting any distraught facial expressions.

  3. Pierre for PM! He destroy liberals in parliment, glad to see hes doing even better in an actual debate. Trudeau doesnt stand a chance

  4. If Mr. Charest really agrees with Trudeau and the liberals on the issue of the trucker convoy/emergency measures act , then he should be running for NDP or Liberal.

  5. Charest is a Liberal and has about as much business as Trudeau running for Conservative leadership.

  6. Charest gets a pass in Quebec because In 2018, Quebec received $11.7 billion of the total $19-billion federal program funds, which is the largest of all transfers to the provinces and territories. Quebec will receive the most from equalization payments in the 2019–2020 year. Nice gift from Trudeau on behalf of the best of Canada.

    1. quebec has always been pandered to. to bad they didn’t totally separate when they had the chance. they must of realized they would loose alot of Canadian taxpayers money if they did.

  7. Bravo Pierre. Charest is accusing Pierre of supporting what he declares an illegal convoy, but is guilty of being on the take himself.

  8. The truckers are Canadian citizens.. it the mp job to talk, listen and understand what their constituents want. Listening to what the “convoy “ had to say in their judge approved LEGAL protest is what needed to be done. And had more mps and the pm chose to listen to them it would have been over in 4 days.

  9. Beat it Charest.
    Step aside and let an actual leader, an actual Conservative, LEAD.
    The only choice is Pierre!

  10. We didn’t hear about charest since 1995 and all of a sudden he’s coming out of the woodwork. Jeez I wonder why?

  11. Let the other leader hopefuls keep raising money for the party but they haven’t got a chance Pierre all the way

  12. Charest is done, he blew it. We all know he IS a Liberal.
    Pierre knows the facts.
    We are proud of him.
    We All Thank him for it.
