I hope old Pierre sells the CBC.

A real leader.

If you want ALL carbon taxes scrapped, it's important to get that into platforms before the ink dries.

Ending one carbon tax isn't enough.

Liberal leadership front-runner Mark Carney says he will end the consumer carbon tax. But he is going to keep the hidden carbon tax the government hammers businesses with. And when the government hammers businesses with carbon taxes, those businesses pass those carbon tax costs on to YOU through higher prices.

Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre has shown leadership fighting the carbon tax. Poilievre deserves credit for that.

But there's already industry lobbyists, green activists, academics and media pundits pressuring Poilievre to keep the government's hidden industrial carbon tax.

The Liberals have had 10 years to run Canada so perhaps it's time to give Conservatives the chance.

However if he gets in I hope Poilivere stands up for Canada and has it's best interests at heart. Don't sell us out to the US & continue Stephen Harper's initiative to strengthen ties with Europe.

The best conservative Prime Ministers Canada has ever had were pro Canadian & staunchly anti American

All the Liberals have to do is negotiate a deal to strengthen border security and there are no tariffs. Instead of doing that they want a trade war.

I don't think so Brent Brent.

Even if Poilivere becomes PM he will have to stand firm against Trump.

I hope for our sake that PM Poilivere is as tough and strong as the pit bull image he likes to project.

Liberal or Conservative I just want the next PM to stand up for Canada & prevent it from being swallowed up by the US.

I'm not pro conservative nor pro liberal party really.

Just pro Canada

This was written by Tom Harris, Executive Director of International Climate Science Coalition – Canada.

The Conservative Party of Canada's (CPC) "Axe the Tax" campaign has succeeded beyond their wildest dreams, turning millions of Canadians against the carbon tax.

But scrapping the carbon tax alone is not enough. Canada must break free from net-zero policies. As political landscapes shift, so too must strategies. "Axe the Tax" no longer cuts it.

Pierre Poilievre and the CPC must offer Canadians a climate policy that benefits, not burdens, our nation. The party must now shift focus to "No net-zero!" to save us from a multi-trillion-dollar catastrophe that will do virtually nothing to affect global emissions, let alone climate.

Net-zero is marketed as a reasonable goal, but in reality, it is all pain and no gain. It demands that greenhouse gas emissions equal removals. Despite Canada already generating 82% of its electricity without carbon dioxide emissions, the federal government still requires net-zero in the power sector by 2035. This target is economically reckless and scientifically meaningless.

Canada's net-zero strategy has targeted the oil and gas sector, crippled investment, driven up energy costs, and stifled job growth.

European nations, having aggressively pursued green energy, offer a sobering warning. Their rising costs, increasing taxes, ballooning subsidies, mounting debt, and surging inflation have fueled deindustrialization, forcing jobs overseas as European manufacturing becomes uncompetitive.

The financial burden of net-zero is staggering. Canada's 2022 capital commitment to achieve net-zero by 2050 is estimated at $3.6 trillion over 28 years, or $90,000 per Canadian, on top of the existing $30,000 per person national debt. Now that the U.S. has exited the UN Paris Agreement, Canada must rethink its approach to keep businesses competitive. Otherwise, younger generations will inherit crippling debt they never requested or approved.

But the carbon tax is just one symptom of the broader climate alarmism infecting Canada. Poilievre must reject the naive belief that humanity can control "global temperatures" like a thermostat. Instead, he should prioritize real-world adaptation projects that protect Canadians from extreme weather while rejecting costly, ineffective net-zero schemes.

Canada is in crisis. Fundamental necessities like food, housing, and energy are unaffordable for many. The standard of living has plummeted. The CPC must act decisively by prioritizing Canadians' safety and well-being, championing a "No net-zero" policy, and explaining why this is the right path to restore economic vitality, energy security, and climate resilience.

Net-zero policies have already damaged our nation, and it is time to reject the climate cult, put Canadians first, and focus on real solutions to repair the harm done.

....doesn't seem PP likes Trump very much:


Relations with US could be even worse with PP.

PP says Trump doesn't like him  very much


....and that he is not a MAGA Guy.

What Mr Poilivere's "relations" with Donald Trump are, are irrelevant Sweetipie. What matters is if he will reduce the size of the bloated federal civil service, make sure new energy infrastructure gets built, balance the budget, reduce immigration to manageable levels, cut taxes, reduce red tape, and put more money in Canadians pockets.
