The only reason why a number of Conservative politicians and affluent influencers complain about affordability, housing and groceries is that they are desperately trying to recruit ignorant Canadians to vote Conservative. They most certainly would not want their wealth to drop!
I can’t believe Rob is falling for Eva’s grift. I’m sure she knows full well why she was given the boot but is too embarrassed to share the private details. It’s better to gain sympathy through Twitter by showing the letter, knowing full well it will rally the misinformed.
What the hell is this about @RBC …explanation now please. Is Ms. Chipiuk a criminal or just a conservative with opinions you disagree with politically? I’d like to know so I can decide whether my business with your bank is still warranted.
This indeed, there was a level of rational thought in their discourse. There were always nutty ones, but now the nuts are ruling the party and influencing us daily!
For me, conservatism is about nostalgia and melancholy and I can’t fault them for that. It’s a comfortable place to retreat to. What we have today, isn’t that in my opinion.
This has nothing to do with fairness and the comparison to violent crimes. It has everything to do with the national post trying to radicalize Conservatives all while letting them know that they are special and better than the rest of Canadians.

I guarantee that all the Conservatives complaining about cost of living and house prices will be really pissed if the market corrects itself and they loose money on their properties. They will be upset and blaming the government on that too!
I know Veterans that now refuse to wear the poopy for various reasons. PTSD, political reasons, anger, are you going to scold them too? Or do only immigrants get this treatment?
Don Cherry was right all along. Canadians should expect people who move to our country to wear a poppy on remembrance day, respect our traditions, and learn & share our customs & values. It’s dead simple, if you want to come live here in Canada— learn to behave like a Canadian.
The Conservatives are right, there are 2 tiers of justice in Canada. They want special treatment for crimes that the rest of us would have to accept. They want to be able to grift and misbehave with little consequence. They turn themselves into victims for propaganda.

The right wing strategy, tell only half of the story on social media, whether it is about a Christian singer, or a lawyer whining about the RBC. Play the victim for attention and the post spreads like wildfire to push their propaganda and agenda of a broken country. #Canpoli
You can sure bet if an environmental group was pulling similar shady crap with their accounts and were shut down the convoy folks would approve. This MAPLE MAGA demographic most certainly sees themselves as above any consequences for corruption and shady dealings!
Now, I don't know the facts, so a measure of caution is in order. I do know communism (one of the rare privileges of growing up in a revolution) and banks (trust me on this one). 1. This ain't communism. Whoever thinks that is either a fool or a charlatan. Debate closed. 1/
Hey @erinotoole this is the dangerous hyperbolic rhetoric that is dividing us. When you have MPs spewing conspiracy garbage to an anxious base the damage only grows. When will level headed Conservatives start fighting and calling out this crap! #canpoli #conspiracycrazy
You will own no car and be happy! The reality is that Canada doesn’t have the infrastructure or power grid capacity to accommodate the Liberal EV mandate. Conservatives believe that Canadians should have the choice of which car they own and drive.
One things that the current Conservatives and right wing influencers have managed to do is make a relatively comfortable middle class demographic that has more than the essentials feel cheated as ripped off.
Well Eva Chipiuk the occupation lawyer got all sorts of attention today playing the victim because the Royal Bank booted her. So much for the stoic tough Conservative taking responsibility. All it ever is, “how can I blame all the bad things that happen to me on others”
The majority of the loudest non Influencer Conservative that is online screaming about how they are struggling are the middle and upper class. The one that have a home, wealth and comfort. They likely can afford trips to Vegas and Cabo.
What has to happen is many current Conservatives in government along with moderate Conservative influencers need call out the poor behaviour of right wing agitators and disrupters. Much of the polarization is crafted propaganda making a certain middle class demographic angry.
Good column. Growing inequality is a major contributor to polarization and declining social cohesion. This is why I advocated for doubling the Canada Workers Benefit & disability supports rather than a general tax cut. thelogic.co/comment/carmic…
What is with the Occupiers always trying to play victim. They pretend to be stoic and tough but anytime life gets hard or they have to take responsibility they make out that it’s tyrannical. They are always looking for sympathy.
Well, I wasn’t expecting this, @RBC. Welcome to Canada, where tyranny has great customer service.
You can bet if David’s life was held back for weeks by environmentalists, people he deems as far less important than the occupiers. He would have wanted them busted up within the first week. If they had lasted any longer than a week he would have wanted the book thrown at them!
At the Freedom Convoy trial and not believing what I'm hearing. Not only has this charade wasted millions of dollars but it remains an exercise in punishing political prisoners. The Crown has no sense of reality or what's important.
This exactly!
Evoking “God’s Plan” is manipulative and deliberate - it’s to rally her base and set the conditions for her to become a martyr Korash, Jones, Warren Jeffs - all did the same before their fall. She’s not a hero to be admired - she’s a cult leader who wants chaos. Pure evil.
So much for being the party of responsibility. Let’s say Nadine when you were a police officer, you pulled someone over. And they thought it was unjustified, and decided to harass you, your family and neighbours for over 3 weeks solid. Would that be your fault?
If Tamara and Chris are going to be jailed over the convoy then so should Trudeau as a party to the offence. The convoy would have never happened in the first place if it wasn’t for Trudeau so he should be held responsible. In fact give him both Tamara and Chris’s sentence…
Now we get to sit through a month or two of bots and attention seekers trying to capitalize on the death of Ozzy by sharing awful AI images. They will beat this too death milking gullible fools on social media. Either through the simple monetization of posts or through grifting!
This one is perfect for an Oddball!
Thank you, Pierre, we've been waiting so long for elected officials to speak up.
No it isn’t, if they were land defenders or environmentalists that shut down a city for 3 weeks and used the same insurrectionist rhetoric against a Conservative government you would have wanted them locked up for life. This is about you continuing to radicalize the right.
This is political persecution. x.com/LichTamara/sta…
