I would argue that Pierre isn't mean. He's just unelectable as party leader. He needs to fire his campaign manager. When Carney became leader people saw him with his multiple credentials and his ability to speak in more then three word slogans as a better option. The Conservatives are also having a big problem with how they are seen as no better then the Republicans in the US. Parties like the UCP are not helping with that image. Also remember that the vast majority of Canadians don't give a shit about us and our guns and would be quite happy to just let the current situation continue. By that I mean our guns are stuck in our safes and the government isn't even going to pay us for them. One last note Pierre may have lived here his entire life, but he hasn't done anything but be a MP. Even worse is he has said that people shouldn't be a career politician, and yet he is one.

I didn't vote Liberal and never will. I also won't vote Conservative because they don't represent what I want to see governing our country. I vote NDP but even they are hard to vote for as they have dropped the working class as a priority. Maybe Avi will change that.

I stopped reading after the three word slogan part. Absolutely false. What a bunch of slop

That's all I heard when he was campaigning after he lost his seat. I live in his riding (Alberta). I attended a couple of his rallies. Sure he spoke about how bad the liberals where but there was nothing of substance in his speeches. But then again running in the safest conservative seat in the country he doesnt even need to try.

All I ever heard from him was how bad the Liberals where and nothing of substance. That and I just dont trust the conservatives to do anything good for the people. Much like the liberals they are only in it for the power and money.

Never vote for someone who only belittles and blames others and doesn't even offer up a game plan or a damn alternative
