The Conservative platform says an O’Toole government would implement the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) calls to action 71-76 as well as finance investigations “at all former residential schools in Canada where unmarked graves may exist, including the sites where children have already been discovered.”
An Ontario PC MPP, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Rebel News that all party MPPs suspected of not having been vaccinated against COVID-19 are being warned by party leaders that they have until Thursday to get the shot. Failing to do so, they face being kicked from the PC party caucus.

Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole doesn’t believe the budget will balance itself, but he has faith that his economic plan will eliminate the federal deficit within 10 years if he becomes Canada’s next prime minister.
With support for the leader in freefall, others — such as Pierre Poilievre — begin to shoe-horn their way toward the top spot
The only political communication to break through my self-imposed summer news blackout was an online ad by Pierre Poilievre that railed against price hikes on homes, food and gas. “Trudeau’s plan to borrow forever means inflation and bankruptcy,” the MP says in an effective walk-and-talk slot that ended with the curt message: “Pierre Poilievre: Fighting for You.”
Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole pitches his position on free trade as a stand against the failed policies of the Liberal government. In reality, his battle is with the ghosts of his own party.
In a short video posted to Twitter last week, Mr. O’Toole railed against a government “that chases bad trade deals with countries like China,” and the greed of the corporate “power brokers” who support those trade pursuits at the expense of workers at home.
“I believe that the goal of economic policy should be more than just wealth creation,” he said.
Is he listening? Go Incognito.
Conservatives outline plan for ‘bold’ new international human rights agenda
Erin O’Toole and the Conservatives say that if they form the next government, they’ll make it easier for newcomers to Canada to find work in their fields while transforming Canada’s role in promoting international human rights.
“… Helping newcomers maximize their success by allowing them to work in their field of knowledge will be good for Canada the corporate class, good for the economy our globalist backers pocket books and, most importantly, suppress wages for these workers Canadians and their families,” said O’Toole in a media release.
In a recent article at The Epoch Times, “Erasing, Misrepresenting Canada’s History Erodes Foundations of Society,” a group of well meaning and harmless conservative historians are cited at length expressing concerns about the tearing down of statues, renaming of buildings and streets, and overemphasis on Canada’s “racist past” without an acknowledgement that this nation has been “constantly improving” away from its “racist past”. I don’t wish to speak slightingly of the historians interviewed for this article. They seem sincere in their angst about the obliteration of Canada’s past from the public sphere. But these historians speak from a defeatist standpoint and they readily accept the premises of the “progressive” Left. Their argument is essentially that Canada’s “historical trajectory” can’t be categorized as purely racist since this past eventually produced a non-racist Canada that welcomes millions of nonwhite immigrants. Canada is now a nation of “justice,” “prosperity,” and “equal rights for everyone”.
OTTAWA—The poles holding up the federal Conservatives’ big blue tent are wobbling, raising questions about whether the huff and puff of the next election could just blow it down.
Multiple party sources tell the Toronto Star discussions within their ranks these days bring to mind the early 2000s and a fractured right that rendered conservatives incapable of taking down the governing Liberals.
“Everyone is mad on all sides,” said one senior conservative operative speaking on the condition of anonymity due to their work on campaigns.
What can I say that hasn’t already been said? The CPC has been turned into LPC 2.0.
Men calling themselves women? Erin is for it and mind those pronouns h8tr!.
Free trade? The 3rd world needs your jobs and Erin will make sure they get them.
Carbon tax? Our green-scam is not a tax says Erin.
Anti-Abortion? Not in the CPC you aren’t.
Multicult & Diversity? Faggedaboutit! The CPC is as vested in identity politics as Trudeau. Now step aside as we erase your heritage.
Mass immigration? No different than the Liberals. The goal is to swamp the nation with whoever they can convince to come here, all to please their corporate masters desire to suppress wages and profit from shortages and maybe finagle a few “ethnic” votes for the party.
“A smaller piece of a shrinking pie for you” may as well be the CPC election slogan, it would be the only honest one.

“… The taxpayer-funded contracts, to Outhouse and the others, are a cause for concern among some Conservative MPs and Conservative campaigners who, speaking on the condition of anonymity, believe that the contracts may undermine Conservative charges that the Trudeau Liberals are behaving unethically with federal funds. Some also voiced concerns about the fairness of a top aide to the leader working in nomination fights.”
Canadians don’t seem to like early elections, at least not those called just for the political advantage of a sitting government.
I offer as exhibits David Peterson’s Liberals in Ontario in 1990 and Jim Prentice’s Tories in Alberta in 2015.
I would not be surprised.
The Liberals remain poised to regain a majority government in the next federal election, a new poll suggests, while support for the Conservatives appears to be dipping to worrying levels.
The latest Ipsos poll conducted exclusively for Global News found 38 per cent of decided voters would cast their ballot for the Liberals if the election were held tomorrow, a number unchanged from last month.
They have an opportunity to reconsolidate some of the lost conservative vote, and focus the attention of the nation on a true debate over freedom of expression and the limits of government power.
You can forgive yourself if you’ve never heard of the Canada Infrastructure Bank (CIB); the largely useless, ultra-expensive federal government boondoggle set up by the Liberals to boost the economy by funding infrastructure projects – “green” projects preferred.
Most people in the infrastructure industry have probably never heard of the CIB, or wish they hadn’t.
Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) MP Michelle Rempel Garner, currently the shadow minister for health, wrote: “I humble myself and ask forgiveness, and seek to make things right. I have privilege; I am cis/straight/white. But I am also a woman who works in a system dominated by white maleness.”
