Pierre Poilievre talks about his father being gay.

I'd like to assure the Catnadian people and their staff that this government is working to help unfreeze @Number10cat's Twitter account. Please continue to spread the word, especially the members of the press and Parliament who follow me. #FreeLarryTheCat

If Alberta wants to separate from Canada, you don’t get to keep Canadian land, Canadian resources, or exploration rights. You don’t get to hate the country and still profit from it. Want out? Pack your bags. Go. 🇨🇦

Historical fact: Canada joined World War 2 ten days after the start. America entered 2 years and 3 months later. Let’s remember that in our next speech…
