Last Updated Friday, October 4, 2019 8:11PM EDTOTTAWA -- One of the shiniest stars in Canada's conservative constellation is in Ontario this weekend in support of federal party leader Andrew Scheer.
His efforts particularly in ethnic communities are often cited as a reason the Conservatives became a competitive force in the highly diverse ridings, and for helping them win their first -- and only -- majority government in 2011. The Tories lost Willowdale and several others like it, and hope to regain them this time around. Willowdale will be one of Kenney's stops on his Ontario tour this weekend.
Scheer's announcement Friday was on gun crime, promising to get Canada's border agency to do more to try to stop illegal guns from crossing into Canada from the United States. But he decided to enter provincial politics instead, first uniting the conservative movement in Alberta and then running and winning the premier's job earlier this year.
"He'll be under attack, because I think he's leading in this campaign. So my advice to him would don't become too defensive. Get our there, communicate your message -- that's what worked for us."
Kenney seals it for me. No thanks. Feels like a threat if he doesn’t get his way. Sound familiar?
Forgotten in this headline: Alberta Premier Jason Kenney Campaigns in Ontario for Scheer ON THE TAXPAYER DIME Just like Harper did Still trying to forget Harper's FakeEconomicActionPlan elxn43 cdnpoli
Where’s Douggie?
I'm afraid he's going to need more than that to get elected. We need a bomb shell to hit Trudeau not something that just slides off of him.
Two brains are better than one.
You might as well have two career liars together.......he and Scheer are a real pair. Throw Ford in and you have a hat trick of liars....
Things are getting tough. Send in the Harper minions.
KEEP HIM, PLEASE. He has not helped Alberta one bit.
Sounds weird, but weird like greed is good, nope?
So where is Doug Fraud?
We think it's hilarious that he's here. Who wants to tell CPC_HQ that Ontario has hated Jason Kenney even more and longer than we've hated fordnation . CDNvote2019 cdnpoli elxn43 NeverConservative ScheerDisaster
Get this loser out of Ontario and back to his own province. TheoFleury14 This must be real good news for the PC party. Sheer doesn’t even trust one of his own premiers so has to bring the Alberta guy in. Lol.
how can you support an American he should of not been able to run shows how crooked the democrat party is letting an American run in a Canadian election
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ontarians don't give a damn about Kenney. He should go back to the prairies. Where is Ford? Why isn't he door knocking with his federal cousins? Why can't he face Ontarians instead of hiding? He has not been seen in Etobicoke. I heard he's been in Chicago all this time cdnpoli
He's not even popular here and those who do know him despised him when he was in government. I also find it strange that he is visiting ridings where the Conservatives have no hope of winning like Ottawa Nepean and Ottawa-West Nepean. cdnpoli
I guess Donald Trump was busy
Geeeee if Shreer so self righteous . How come does not talk about the RCMP looking into Kenny campaign . Shocker he has blinders on for Conservative 👿
He has a great story to tell, I am glad he is in Ontario.
Kenney is under investigation by the RCMP and is an illegitimate Premier.
Where is Premier of Ontario?
So the Alberta Premier has to come to Ontario to help because the Ontario Premier is too unstable a genius? And they want to elect someone else of the same suit of political colour? Heck let just ask Donald Trump to be PM... he is looking for another job anyways
Like we in ON care about this scammer
Why isn’t Ford? Ohh yeah, nvm.
while neglecting his duties in Alberta. Ask him why schools don't have their budget yet..go on ask him.
It doesn’t matter most Albertans want to separate from this dysfunctional country
All the hypocritical racist Liberals are again showing they have no integrity. Wynne did not shut up the entire 2015 election
Great.. a pair dweebs on the move.
I'll take: 'Angry Wanna Be Prime Ministers' for $100 Alex.
Alberta taxpayer dollars hard at work...in fucking Ont?
Isn’t he being investigated for election fraud.
How about taking care of your own province squirt?!!
Why do you always make him look angry Liberal news I guess.
Why ? go back to Alberta! Where is FraudNation onpoli
Wtf where is our fat boy Too embarrassing to bring out in public ! What a whipping boy you are
he is just getting away from the RCMP for awhile … Kenny and the UCP are under an RCMP investigation from the last election in Alberta … 19th century man stuck in the 21st century … meanwhile the amerikan scheer can hide in the background for a few days
Why the desperation Andrew..?
Because he thinks that he is more popular in Ontario than Doug Ford? That is not exactly a ringing endorsement.
Doesn't he already have a job?
