Opinion Althia Raj: To hold off Pierre Poilievre, Justin Trudeau has to counter a familiar — and effective — playbook

“Everything feels broken,” laments Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre each time he’s in front of a microphone.

If this sounds familiar, it is. Poilievre has borrowed from Trudeau’s successful 2015 campaign slogan “better is always possible.” He’s also appropriated from David Cameron, the former Conservative leader in the United Kingdom whose “Broken Britain” campaign saw the Tories successfully argue Labour’s big government promise had failed to deliver.It may be tempting to dismiss his over-the-top rhetoric. Liberals may want to argue things are better for a lot of Canadians.

Add to that the fact that Trudeau’s caucus is increasingly restless ; that a recession is on the horizon, and that a likely strike by public servants may impact the delivery of services .

althiaraj Jacinda Trudeau has worn out his welcome. You would have to be lobotomized to believe one word that comes out of his lying and corrupt Pie Hole.

althiaraj Toronto Star media propaganda go back to your drawing board on this onw.

althiaraj Trudeaus election playbook involves accusing the other candidate of being racist and wanting to open up the abortion debate. It’s that basic. And basic people Fall for it. All the while Trudeau mismanages and leaves Canada in a worse place.

althiaraj To hold off Justin Trudeau, Pierre Polievre has to counter a familiar — and effective — playbook: propaganda “opinion pieces” by fawning fan-girl althiaraj published in the liberal_party house organ the

althiaraj Pierre should use ‘I can’t be any worse’

althiaraj The next federal election could occur as late as Oct 20, 2025, 994 days from now. Is Canadian media being sucked into covering PierrePoilievre's campaign already 142 days in, if one ignores his leadership quest of another 217 days? No more making fun of America's 2 year cycle!🤦‍♀️

althiaraj TorontoStar PP is “holding off” himself with the help of Canada Proud Boys

Trudeau is the epitome of liberal retardation.. the most vile despicable and hated PM in the history of the Canadian Federation

Ah, yed, Althia needs to defend her pay cheque yet again.

Effective playbook- subsidize flakey media like the Trudeau Star so they feed their readers nothing but liberal propaganda. Yes it works.

Altha Raj is a known Liberal insider. Therefore her news is not news, it's biased media.

He(JT) had better hope this time next year things will show improvement on the economic front and worst is in the rear view mirror.

althiaraj … you raise good, and scary points. IMO, apparently but ONE SOLUTION - $$$$$$. Which has ONE SOURCE - taxes, and payers thereof. You and me. PeePee is not wrong - per se - about the many issue$ we face. BUT. ‘Tis easy to bitch. We. Need. Achievable. Solutions. 😡

JustinTrudeau is done. Worst PM in history and will be remembered as a stain on Canada

All he has to do is throw bullshit at a wall, and you in his owned, controlled, fascist media will assure no Canadians hear anything except that bullshit.

Trudeau is all flash and no substance. Poilivere is all logic and no flash. Problem for Trudeau is he is now just unlikable.

effective? how many elections have they lost against Trudeau now?

Everyone knows what team the Star... are on. You got some time to shit on PP before he shuts down funding of liberial supported news outlets. Get busy

Poilievre challenges Trudeau to fix 'broken' Canada or 'get out of the way'At a caucus meeting, Poilivre told his MPs a Conservative government would cap spending, reduce waste and \u0027fire high\u002Dpriced consultants.\u0027 Wow, the arrogance of this man. Another demigod waiting in the wings..No ONE person can fix all that is 'broken' in Canada or the world. This 'I alone can fix it mantra needs to take a step back. It takes a village. Honestly, fed up with these testosterone authoritarian types. Or else what? He'll undermine Democracy by supporting a lunatic fringe group of thug truck protesters, funding through US by alt-white provacateurs? PierrePoilievre? Canada Canada is NOT broken. We, Canadians, all the freedoms we want... including doing these protests. PierrePoilievre is an unintelligent embarrassment, who uses Trumpian/GOP tactics of preying on his supporters' fear and emotions.
