When the Conservative party adopted the slogan “Bring it Home,” it was a catchy phrase reportedly inspired by Leader Pierre Poilievre’s wife. It signalled a return to fundamentals, to a familiar place of security and prosperity. It’s now clear that the promise of bringing it home has not fully materialized.
Despite the slogan’s apparent simplicity, it was so diluted by multiple meanings that it took a four-minute video from Pierre Poilievre to explain what it actually meant. One of those meanings has become even more relevant now that the party has failed to form the government and its leader has lost his seat: “You know, when a sportscaster is broadcasting a game and the home team is up two points and there’s five minutes left, they might say ‘they’re up two but can they bring it home?’ So it really means getting it done.”
Always take Star advice to conservatives with a truck load of salt.
