Canadians are concerned, friend.

On the same day that Donald Trump won the Iowa Caucus, the Angus Reid Institute released a survey showing around two-thirds of Canadians are concerned that American Democracy can’t survive another Trump Presidency.
It’s clear that Canadians fear the impacts of the American far-right, but Pierre Poilievre is continuing to rip a page out of their playbook. Pierre Poilievre wants to rip up our climate plan, cut taxes for the rich and services for everyone else, put guns back in our communities, and roll back all of the progress we’ve made together.
But don’t take our word for it – look at how he mimics the American far-right to attack our free press:
Justin Trudeau and our Liberal team are staying focused on delivering on the priorities that matter most to Canadians – like creating good middle class jobs, making life more affordable, boosting support for seniors, delivering stronger public health care, and taking strong action against climate change. That’s why we’re moving forward with $10-a-day child care, the Canadian Dental Care Plan, increasing the Canada Child Benefit, building more affordable housing, and so much more.
But Pierre Poilievre and his Conservative Party are trying to make deep cuts that will gut the middle class and import far-right American politics here to Canada.
The best tool we have to stop Pierre Poilievre and his Conservatives from taking Canada backward is working together. That’s why we’re counting on you, friend.
If you’re able, chip in now to ensure Justin Trudeau and our Liberal team can continue our work to keep Canada moving forward.
