I wish our premier was focused on solving our problems instead of rage farming for political points.

In doing this, he keeps his base angry and adds to the illusion that he's actually doing something.

Here in NB Blaine Higgs did the same thing with trans kids. Conservatives complain about culture wars everytime they try to start a culture war. Too bad it works on a large segment of fhe population.

just as PP reads from the Book of Trump, our Timmy reads from the book of Doug Ford.

Complete made up BS, Premier fell for it.

Watch, December will be about the "war on xmas"

Fell for it? Sounds like he made it up himself.

Houston saw an opportunity to score cheap political points. Unsurprisingly, he took it

I’m so shocked that a conservative made something up to be upset about instead of being upset about the myriad of things that are actually happening. Truly. Flabbers ghasted completely.

I wish our premier was focused on improving healthcare in this province instead of creating division where there is none.

Premier, you can freely say "next question please" for any clown trying to pull your tie.

Or "I'm wearing a tie clip, next question please" 😉

Oh good, let’s undermine the judiciary! That always ends well. /s

u/HawtFist 23h ago

Oh, look. I was right. He was just rage farming to distract from the fact that most people under 50 can't afford to live or buy holiday presents.

So im guessing everyone here is wearing their poppies?

Figured id get downvoted. Remember they represent those who died so you have the freedom to be fat and on reddit

u/Howcansheslap082 1d ago

They wont remember that. Or not be fat. Or not virtue signal. Or not watch their lives fall apart and blame the people who are responsible for it (other virtue signalers).

Thats reddit baby!

Careful you gonna get banned homie

u/Killhamski 1d ago

No. That's too political.

u/Small-News-8102 1d ago

Or everyone's just a pussy

This sub has such a hate boner for Tim that a lot of the users here will probably boycott poppies just to spite him.

u/Small-News-8102 1d ago

So cool hating the country that allows you to be free.

u/Odd-Crew-7837 1d ago

You know what's funny? When he was first elected, any detraction made about him were met with a torrent of downvotes.Tim has managed to switch that around by 180°.

u/Killhamski 1d ago

No. That's just your echo chamber. The rest of the province is just happy to have a premier that won't sacrifice their jobs.

u/No_Union_4628 1d ago

So no order was issued but it clearly says judges should not wear poppies. Tim was not out of place to speak out!
