Pierre Poilievre is a populist politician — there’s that demonizing word again — and, as a result, he scares the bejeebers out of the political elite.
The elite — all the progressives in the media, in the Liberal Party of Canada, in the mush of the NDP, in the anointed corporations — want the populace to believe that, without its oversight and care, the world of ordinary Canadians would go to hell in a handcart.
It’s why they demonize populists. Populists make it sound so simple. So simple to fix the housing crisis. So simple to fix the high cost of living. So simple to cut taxes and still provide services, so simple to defund the CBC, so simple to audit the federal bank, Poilievre’s latest salvo.
