The "reporter" in question is Teresa Wright, who was recently fired by MSM: https://archive.is/TzM8M
I tried to ask Pierre Poilievre whether he is trying to court the far-right vote. He would not answer the question, saying my question sounded like a CBC smear job and a distraction from the real issues.
Of course our pal Rachel Gilmore came to her defense in a big way:
Put some goddamn respect on @ReporterTeresa’s name. Teresa is the woman who broke the Mike Duffy story. She is tenacious and smart as hell. You’d shrivel like a raisin trying to achieve a fraction of what she has while dealing with a shred of the adversity she’s faced.
Personally I’d expect any political leader (yes, including Trudeau) to be willing to answer a question about an issue that’s been reported this widely without requiring me to have memorized the academics who said it in order to do so: cites articles written by Trudeau-funded media, half of them written by HERSELF
She then says she can tell PP is aware of the “enormous support” to be gained from tapping into extremist communities by deadass citing a book called "Men Who Hate Women: From Incels To Pickup Artists: The Truth About Extreme Misogyny And How It Affects Us All": https://archive.ph/SrA8e
No, really: https://archive.ph/9gE6X
why shouldn't he court the far right if they're being underserved?
What's funny is the "far right" hates him for being a centrist cuck.
PP supported making the Proud Boys a terrorist group, voted to outlaw "conversion therapy" (ie questioning people who say they're trans), claimed actual right-wing Bernier was "as woke as Trudeau" and a ton of other examples of him being not right wing enough let alone "far right".
COVID-19 injections are also an elephant in the room for him.
Covid everything, he didn't stand up for damn thing until the freedom convoy came.
He didnt stand up then! He showed up when it was advantageous to him and disappeared at the first whiff of controversy. The CPC courting the far right is true insofar as they'll try to get anyone to vote for them as long as they aren't expected to do anything in return.
oh, this isn't the based one?
No that's far right terrorist(tm) Maxime Bernier
Supported freedom from covid tyranny from day 1 and has faced nothing but the most rotten and cowardly accusations since
Including from noted opportunist Pollievre
Based compared to the red high heel wearing cuck last "Conservative" leader, yes. Based compared to most of the establishment "conservatives", sure.
Compared to Mad Max, Trump or DeSantis? Not really.
"All the liberal rags wrote about it, therefore it's a legitimate question"
And Trudeau is on video refusing to answer questions from Rebel News, in fact refusing to even call them journalists.
By "reported widely" she of course means from MSM liberal outfits who get Trudeau bucks.
And with a single question the reporter forces PP back into the Overton window, making him essentially disavow those radical extremist that don't want men in the women's bathroom.
This is why the right loses. They let the left frame the question. His denial is punching right. He should have replied with something along the lines of " so what?" or "That is a good idea."
Correct. Ideally, you spin the answer into cliche talking points like reaching all citizens that will listen.
FYI he did push back on the "extremist" part a bit in that press conference: https://twitter.com/RebelNewsOnline/status/1691890043626074258
His retort was fine, but he should have added "Define 'far right'?" & "Give 1 example of you asking a left-wing politician about courting the far-left".
Sometimes I wonder if Liemore is just a Brittany Venti-level troll, it's hard to believe anyone is this combination of stupid, dishonest & Liberal party shill.

I love when feminists reveal their internalized misogamy. She just knows a straight, white male like PP is so smart he knows every so-called "expert" who writes bad things about him but just accepts the wammin reporter is so dumb she can't possibly think of a single "expert" she herself sourced her own question from. She can't be expected to name someone she's citing- she's just a dumb, silly little girl!
Another thing is what kind of "expert" decides if someone's "courting the far right"? Do you get a doctorate in "far-right courting"?? At least with the covid bullshit there were people who were doctors and supposed to be (in theory at least) actual experts on disease & medicine.

"Which experts?"
"Wife-beating experts."

I think 'Shillmore' suits her better.
It's good to see you praise PP for a change.
It's good to see him deserving it for a change. To bad it's certainly fleeting.
I love that this "reporting" doesn't meet the stanards of...Wiki fucking Pedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Words_to_watch#Unsupported_attributions
