I enjoyed that so much. The moron was so completely unprepared to be challenged on anything.

Kicking a journalist in the shins over and over then turning the exchange into a social-media flex is telling on yourself
So this guy is the 'health columnist' for the Globe and Mail. Shall we look at his gems when it comes to health?

Yes, this health columnist actually branded the Nobel prize winning medicine Ivermectin as 'livestock dewormer'...
Both DeLorey and Marland said there's a lesson there for journalists. DeLorey said the whole scene could have gone down differently if the reporter had asked different questions or cited specific examples.
That's buried at the very end, but the fact it's even in there is a rare win by CBC standards.
The couple of times we got mired in a testy, go-nowhere exchange, it seemed like Mr. Poilievre retreated to debate-club fisticuffs because he couldn’t or refused to respond to the underlying question. I think that’s what was going on with Mr. Urquhart, too, only with an added layer of performative apple-crunching disdain.
"Why won't he just answer our heavily slanted questions that are designed to make him look bad?!"
Instead of asking Poilievre about Okanagan issues the local reporter decided to ask about Trump and populism. All without a clue what either question even meant.
Wow! He totally owned that lib! He destroyed him with facts and logic! Let's all vote for him!

Unfortunately that's all conservative politicians are good for (because being actual opposition to the left is too much work).They make some reporter uncomfortable or write some zinger on Xwitter and have right wing voters fawning over them.

That journo was the embodiment of an NPC. He blindly regurgitated all these buzzwords but when asked to define them he short-circuited.
Regular reminder that you must fail at ever academic subject to become a journalist.
This is why reading the comments is 100x more useful than reading the article.
Show this video to anyone who claims Ivermectin is just "Horse Dewormer".

At this point, I don't even try to refute them, I just point and laugh.
Never interrupt your enemy...
CBC actually has a half-decent article about this: https://archive.ph/bFbOy

CBC can smell their future under PP.
Haha yah, I've noticed they're actually starting to ask libs harder and tougher questions in the recent months
"Why won't he just answer our heavily slanted questions that are designed to make him look bad?!"
he didn't even ask a question, he just spewed a bunch of shit leftist blood libel at him and then finally asked him a question

Here's a direct video link to the linked video, since the unarchived link seems paywalled, and Instagram is weird to navigate.

How much did Zuckerberg pay for this trash heap again?
It's free thinking versus regurgitating info that is considered true by people who do the thinking for you.
