OTTAWA —Conservative leadership candidate Pierre Poilievre’s promise to fire the governor of the Bank of Canada divided caucus Wednesday
Poilievre’s pledge puts the party’s credibility at risk, the former Conservative cabinet minister also said. “Ed has publicly stated his support for one of the Conservative party of Canada’s leadership candidates and would like to be able to offer more dedicated support to that team,” the statement said.
Sources told the Star that what prompted that shuffle was a concern similar to the issue that some Conservatives are raising with Poilievre now — his economic rhetoric.
Poilievre is the presumed front-runner in the leadership contest. Among the six contenders, he also has the most MPs in his corner.Several MPs have privately told the Star their support reflects a demand from their ridings, the grassroots members who help MPs raise funds and get elected, and who see in Poilievre a champion for the Conservative cause.
Pierre let loose his brown shirts.
nobody wants to hear the truth these days...look south...
No wonder they can’t win an election.
I tweeted some time ago that the Fed. Cons. would split. Maybe Pro. Cons. vs Cons.?
