Everything isn’t about you.

That is a valid and complicated, but separate discussion. I will not engage with it when it is used as a tit-for-tat.

Have you said anything negative about carney this entire campaign? Can you mention something positive about Poilievre? All you seem to do is polarize this forum and attack people backing Poilievre.

I voted for Poilievre but I respected Carney for some of his policies/actions. See my previous posts propping him for his debate performance.

And yet you keep posting so how are you being “silenced and cancelled?”

Yes that and the PCs released their platform with even more ugly plans.

He probably won't have a choice. this loss falls solely on him. His earlier admiration for Frump will always be an issue for him going forward. the party will want to rebrand after this election.

Similar to JT being "strongly encouraged" to resign, I think we will see the same with PP.

The Conservatives will need to clean house. Someone more pragmatic like Ford will be needed.

I may be slightly biased in my views, but the conservatives are far to right of center to win. We will find out in 10 days if that is correct or not.

100%. Corrupt, far left moderators have taken over and ruined a once-great website and online forum owned and operated by a Conservative voter. It's just sad.

But perhaps it better to raise such a serious issue for Forum Issues subforum? After all, constantly derailing threads with offtopic posts can be considered a ban-worthy offense.

Not only would posting about this issue in the proper subforum be less likely to get you banned, it would also be more likely to get Dylan's attention. You can make an entirely new thread for this serious problem, Conservative Voices Are Bullied or Threatened with Deletion or Banning. You could even send him a PM just to be sure. As a fellow Conservative voter, he no doubt will sympathize with you and take immediate action to crack on the rampant corrupt moderation practices and make SSP great again.

I agree, they have shifted too far to the right because, over Covid they tried to emulate the Frump government of the time. Going forward, the past few months may have shifted more of Canada to the left of centre. They need to tone back some of their American-style rhetoric and listen more to what most Canadians feel. Like the Environment is of importance to most Canadians, something that party don't seem to care about at all.

LOL what a ridiculous statement. It's not that "far left" moderators have taken over anything; Canada is a left-leaning nation. The comments in the Canada forum have always leaned left. If you don't like it here you can always go hang out on Truth Social LOL.

Also you never would have known or cared about the political views of the person running the site. We now live in a time where the "Far Right" deal in lies, misinformation, and follow a criminal rapists off the edge of a cliff blindly. Frump may be the most uneducated and psychotic leader the world has seen since WW2. At least with Putin we know who he is and he doesn't pretend to support or value western norms while raping the wealth from 100's of millions of people even his supporters.

Doady, how is it you need a criminal background check for so many basic jobs in America, but you can be a rapist, fraudster, and perpetual liar and become president?

When are the patriotic Republicans going to start doing their job and protect their constitution and not do everything that the Orange racist disgusting excuse of a human tells them to do from his toilet tweets?

I need to ask, do you support Trump because you like his racist policies, or are you just uneducated enough to believe all he says, which makes you one of his favorite types of people? Or is there another reason for supporting him? So far he's doing a shit job.

Wouldn’t this be derailing a thread?

It’s Canadian federal politics and you’re ranting about trump and telling people, who have expressed they don’t feel comfortable, to leave?

You’re literally proving his point.

That's pure misinformation. That kind of thing is actually not tolerated on SSP, FYI.
