Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre painted a gloomy picture of Canada in his closing pitch to voters on Thursday, saying life will get worse if they return a Liberal government in this election.
After sounding a more optimistic and hopeful tone earlier this week around the release of his party’s platform, Poilievre reverted to form at a news conference in Halifax. He said the country will face nothing but “despair” if Liberal Leader Mark Carney is the next prime minister — signalling he will go negative with his messaging in the final days to try and keep his opponent out of power.
