Good. We need to protect parliament from the moral decay of the conservative party. Ad homonym attacks are not part of civil discourse and we shouldn't accept it just because the conservatives want to lower parliamentary proceedings to the rhetoric level of a barroom brawl.

If you wanna hit him where it hurts make those irritating attack ads illegal. You shouldn't be allowed to make your shitty party look good by making every other party look bad. Not to mention how 90% of attack ads are outright disinformation or intentional misrepresentations.

Trudeau deserves much stronger words than "wacko".

EDIT: I accept your downvotes. I was wrong. What the nazi loving fucker deserve is not words at all, it's bashing.

Why?

He's a member of the ruling class who benefits from the exploitation of the working class. This is all just theatrics to distract you from the fact that while Trudeau and Pollivre may have minor disagreements regarding policy, their class interests are aligned. These people have way more in common than they'd like you to know. And pretty much nothing in common with you or I.

Maybe, but a) polievre is much much worst b) do that outside of parlement. We need to keep that place somewhere to debate policies, not personnal character. Insults are not allowed there for a reason and a basic respect should be required.

Never forget he was considering (on the conservatives suggestion no less) mowing down indigenous pipeline protestors protecting their illegally occupied land and the took the NDP talking him out of it. Yes, that pipeline which genobiden ended up shutting down anyway. They were willing to shoot and kill their own citizens to build a pipeline that nobody wanted and literally wouldn't've been able to complete anyway. Ignoring the morality of the situation it still would have been economic suicide, all because Liberals let oil fascists do whatever they want.
