Why is Poilievre campaigning constantly? I have a theory to run by you: Because that gets the ugly truth out of the way early and gives upset people plenty of time to forget.

It gets the media off your back during the home stretch since they already reported the story two years ago - why would they want to repeat old news?

It means they can focus their actual campaign on buying people, with their base already reassured about who they are.

 There's that inappropriate use of "free speech" again. Using a private platform - an aircraft in this case - to subject people to your message is not an exercise in free speech. It was simply a speech sanctioned by the airline.

 Further to what I posted yesterday about the political right's stoking of intolerance. Weaponizing public hysteria and creating a culture of vigilantism is Fascism 101 - think Kristallnacht.

Who is banning books, attacking trans rights, committing violence against racialised communities or attempting coups?

Those with power merely express a concern, apply a tweak. It's their supporters that do the dirty work on their own.
