They changed the headline on this article. It originally read, “Polievre launches campaign with a pitch to heal, ‘a divided country’” which made me laugh because he’s spent so much time whipping up the white grievance that carried Trump to power in the US and trying desperately to ride the same wave of populist bullshit with the same message as Trump. When he’s railing about the, “woke” and “political correctness” that suggests that we can expect an all out assault of LGBTQ+ rights, brown people, books, and anything else they don’t like.

    He appeals to the same aggrieved white people that Trump appeals to with the same message about smart people, progressives, and the woke making them feel bad and telling them that they aren’t better than women, the gays, trans, drag queens, and brown people.
