Description of Pierre Poilievre: Canada’s Donald Trump?
This episode is all about Canada's political situation, Canada's "right-wing" shift, and the rise of Pierre Poilievre, leader of the Conservative Party and most likely Canada's Next Prime Minister. For this episode, I am joined by Rose, Matthias, and Umer, three members of the Democratic Socialists of Canada (The DSC).
In the Backroom on Patreon, we talk about the prospect of "Left Nationalism" in Canada, "Red Toryism," and socialist strategy more broadly. Become a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/OneDime.
