So he's saying that Carney has good policies that Polievre would support implementing?

Copying policies that resonate with people isn't plagiarism, it's good politics. In fact, it's real good politics if those policies are actually good, since no matter who wins, Canadians will win. PP is only complaining that he can't come up with anything to distinguish himself beyond attacking anybody and everybody in the hopes that people will hate them more than they hate him.
Though I don't think these policies are actually that amazing, that's beside the point.
Referring to New York as “Donald Trump’s hometown” is hilarious. Yup nothing else going on there at all, just a small town.
Poilievre has been having a meltdown ever since Trudeau resigned and it’s funny as hell.
Severe case of French mouth on the right. Peculiar thing, French mouth.
Are the policies in the room with us right now?
They are more ethereal, more like concepts of policies
😂
Hilarious. It is like a 5 year old accusing a historical figure of copying them.
Polierve has policies?
Maybe he should have been talking about those for the last year instead of just repeating "Trudeau bad" and "axe the tax" constantly.
He's adapted his message... Now it's "Carney has met Trudeau before and that makes him bad".
Dude really has no ideas.
I see he has finally learned object permanence, before his line was 'Carney is Trudeau, Freeland is Trudeau, they're all Justin Trudeau!!!!'
If his ideas are so good and he’s worried there’ll be stolen, he should say them. That way they’re on the record of him saying them.
He needs to wait for Carney to say them, so he can then say they were stolen.
Vibes of "Whatever he says, I said it first, honest! Trust me bro."
Carney's policies might be taken from Conservative playbooks, but they certainly aren't yours, Poilievre.
How do I know? They are more than three words long.
If you want to hear it from the horse's mouth: PP's 3 word platform. it's like a limerick except every sentence has to feature prominently a three syllable phrase.
Checking Pollievre's facts: (spoiler it's basically bullshit)
Brookfield Asset announced in October that it had moved its head office to New York as part of a strategy to gain inclusion in more US stock indexes and attract more investors. Its parent, Brookfield Corp., still has its headquarters in Toronto.
So yes, a move completed before the US election even happened.
As of October 2020, Carney was vice chairman at Brookfield Asset Management, where he led the firm's environmental, social and governance (ESG) and impact fund investment strategy
Also Carney's role is not even an operational role
Carney, also 59, said at a press conference in Edmonton, Alberta, that he has resigned all of his corporate roles, including as chair of Bloomberg Inc., to focus on politics. His resignation means he’s no longer the head of transition investing at Brookfield.
Carney no longer works for Brookfield.
Brookfield did purchase a pipeline in 2021, and Carney worked there then, so that's not a lie.
Where Carbon Tax Carney?
Man maple millhouse is such a fucking loser.
Now that I've posted the transcript and link to the original video, I can't beleive this isn't the Beaverton!
I know Mr. Carney is going to try to plagiarize my policies right before the election
"I claim your good ideas as my own! I had them first. I won't tell you what they are, but those ideas will be mine!"
In just a few months ago, did you hear about this, Mr. Carney moved his company headquarters to New York, Donald Trump's hometown.
Before Trump won the election and became president, a finance company opened an office in Manhattan. What does that have to do with anything?!
New York: you mean that US state that was suing Donald Trump? The one that he fled from to take up residence in Florida? The one that successfully sued their ex-mayor Rudy Giuliani for the part he played in supporting Trump?
See, that innuendo can go both ways, PP. why not actually share some of your policies with us instead of claiming your opponent stole all their good ideas from you?
