I wasn't going to write anything about Justin and Sophie's sad separation. But as summer slowly changes to fall, I changed my mind.
I wanted to thank them for representing our country in such a classy manner, and for making us look new and exciting in the eyes of the world.
I'll never forget that, nor will I ever forget how the Cons did their ugly best to destroy them.
For it was, and still is, a horror show.
The Prime Minister of Canada surrounded by a howling mob of Convoy Party Cons, waving their vile Fuck Trudeau flags, and looking like they wanted to hurt him or even kill him.
Sophie Gregoire has talked about how she has tried to shield her youngest children from ugly slogans like these...
And way the monstrous Cons have been coming after them since the separation was announced, is just more of the same.
Just as vulgar and evil...
Just as depraved...
Just as threatening...
And just as sickeningly biased...
The Brutes of Belleville were yelling words at the top of their lungs that I wouldn’t want heard by any Canadian, including the nine-year-old Trudeau child or the two Trudeau teenagers. The words “criminal” and “traitor” were shouted. Then there was a word rarely heard in the streets of Canada and even more rarely used to describe the PM, except in the dung-filled dungeons of social media: “pedophile.”
I am not violating the Trudeau’s privacy when I ask my fellow Canadians, how does Sophie Gregoire Trudeau deal with her children asking “Why is our Papa being called a pedophile?”
Adler also wondered whether Sophie is trying to put pressure on Justin to step away from the political scene, which the Cons have turned into an open sewer.
Could anybody blame Sophie Gregoire Trudeau for encouraging her husband to step away from politics, to pass on the baton to the next Liberal leader, to take a walk in the snow after three straight election victories?
I don't know where the Justin and Sophie story will go from here. What I do know is that if the Cons were hoping to demoralize the Prime Minister, they appear to have failed miserably.
For as I’m sure you know, the Prime Minister had fun with his son Xavier, at the big Barbie movie.
He's trolling the Cons, driving their old bigots crazy, and making them all look like sleazy perverts and fools...
And my guess is that without Sophie to moderate him as she has done for years, Trudeau will be able to take on Poilievre without one hand tied behind his back.
And will be able to fight the next election more forcefully than he ever has before.
Which is just as well, because thanks to the Con media blowing Poilievre like a trumpet, he presently enjoys a healthy lead in the polls.
And is spending millions to try to take advantage of that hopefully temporary situation.
"This is not a branding campaign. This is an amplification of who Pierre is and always has been," said Regan Watts, a former adviser to several ministers in the Harper government.
"He's warm, he's kind, he's empathetic and he listens…
From the millionaire who isn't warm, isn't kind, doesn't believe in supporting parents with young children, doesn't believe in medicare and supporting seniors, wants to kill the CBC, and couldn't care less about fighting climate change.
Hugs from the evil Con who did so much to try to destroy the Trudeau family.
Thank you Justin and Sophie for standing up for our values in such a classy way, and helping to show Canadians how low Poilievre and his depraved Con cult can go.
And of course, for encouraging us to demand more than this grubby couple who would leave our beautiful country in ruins.
They must not be allowed to get anywhere near power.
And the only way to do that is by NEVER voting Conservative...

I have been wondering for some time now whether there are any obscenity laws in Canada anymore. After all, it’s obvious what the F Trudeau flags are all about.
And, if anyone claims they don’t imply the obvious, them what is their purpose?
I truly hope that the Trudeau separation is temporary.
As for the National Post? It can go F itself!
UU
I'm not going to do what I wish I could do to the people who either badmouth Justin and Sophie's seperation or brag about their own so called 'healthy christian relationship' with their wife/husband.
It better not be because of those riots because these people don't give a damn about what has Trudeau accomplish. And did I say that for most of them who have a meany attitude, they were divorced more than even Pierre Eliott Trudeau was at that time.
Otherwise, like the first comment said, I just hope everything is temporary as if Justin can feel less restrained by Sophie's philosophy of taking it easy so he can give PeePee a piece of his mind.
Oh please let's hope the party can stick his pants back up and explain to us (NOT DURING A DEBATE) why their plan is convincing and that Poilievre will only enjoy votes to only chew and spit them since nothing will ever change, regarding what's with housing for example. I just can't wait to see if some of my peers will ever get their appartment for only themselves for under 600$ in the next five minutes Poilievre gets his majority. And so as our planet is burning. And not to forget how it's not inflation on groceries that are killing the economy, its the franchises gathering profits by hiking prices.
Oh, and just to conlude, if Pierre wins, it's because voters stayed at home, due to the cynicism installed by all the con media. If anyone voting for him cannot admit it, just they wait until they see that their 'so called victory' is shrinking on them. Just like how they will snap the second they realise that what PP promised them ages ago will take more delay due to some thingys that no one should analyse or die trying.
Hope we can talk more about this. Can't wait for the next post and please Justin and Sophie, let this be just temporary the time we all put those doofus back to their place.
I am so sad that the barrage of hatred that has befallen Canada and its first family appears to have played a major role in the breakup of Justin and Sophie Trudeau's relationship. I am so angry that it appears to have had some success for the vile liar Poilievre, because the amoral lowlifes of the vulture media are too spineless to confront him, and/or willingly complicit in pushing him forward. They are already stalking the Trudeau family on vacation, while Poilievre blasts his 1950s Stepford ad campaign all over the airwaves with no pushback at all, and Ford gets to muscle his way through paving over the Greenbelt.
There is absolutely nothing lower than destroying a marriage and then continuing to turn a blind eye while the most disgusting members of the human race (a loose affiliation at best) continue to harass the affected, and their mentors continue to offend all sense of basic decency with impunity. "Protect the children! Protect the children!" No one cares what effect all this hatred has been having upon the Trudeau kids? Especially the littlest, who is only nine, and was already being subjected to hurtful bullying from Rebel scum when he was just three?
I agree with UU, I hope it is not over. Both their relationship and his career. I haven't been sleeping well and have been suffering panic attacks because of what the prospect of a Skippy "win" would mean: a triumphant and sadistic vindication for the most horrible people whose trucker fuel is the broken hearts they leave in their wake. It just feels like the run-up to the MAGA nightmare all over again. The slow and torturous decline of Canalot. Please, I'm begging Canada, from my perch on the wrong side of the 49th: don't go the route we did. 💔
Hi UU...Never could I have imagined, even in my worst nightmares, the depravity that the Cons have inflicted on Canada with their foul behaviour. There are days,I must admit, when I find it hard to believe they are human, let alone Canadian. It's something that Poilievre and his Convoy Party imported from Trump's America. And as a Canadian I will never accept it, and will use it against them until the day they end up in the garbage can of history. Nor will I rest until I have helped bring down Poilievre's Postmedia propaganda network, which is also a product of its American masters.
As for Justin and Sophie, I would be very surprised if they didn't get back together again after Justin retires from politics. So their fairy tale love story may still have a happy ending...
Hi MyWorld1916...I'm afraid I feel like you, I was raised to be much better than the ugly Cons, and most of them disgust me, and make me feel like vomiting. But what also worries me is the number of Canadians who accept this kind of foul Trump-like behaviour, even as it threatens to tear our country apart. I realize that Poilievre caused a lot of Canadians to turn off politics, alienated them, and he hopes made them less likely to vote. but with Poilievre's disgraceful history of voter suppression more of them should seeing him as what he is, a low life wannabe fascist, and unite to topple him before he does anymore damage. He's got so much baggage no amount of pancake makeup will save him, so when the political season resumes in the fall, I hope to see progressives working harder to save our country. No leader can save it, only we can...
Hi Jackie...I too am sad and angry, and what those Con bullies have done to Justin and Sophie. They really are the lowest of creatures, and the silence of the media is sickening. They all but ignored the Belleville Horror and their indifference to the sewer the Cons are turning Canada into is simply unforgivable. And you're right, the way the Cons are always screaming "protect the children" while going after the Trudeau kids, and exposing other children to their foul and very un-Canadian and perverted behaviour, is simply an abomination. I have read studies comparing the brains of conservatives and liberals, which show that many Con beasts have an enlarged fear gland in their brains. But that's no excuse for their cowardly behaviour. However, what worries me is the number of half decent if not very bright Canadians who are letting themselves be seduced by Poilievre lies. Especially the vote for me and I'll build you a house one, which is absolutely pathetic. The problem as I see it is that the Liberals and the NDP have to counter that lie with a Marshall Plan to construct millions of new living spaces, not just homes but apartments. I know only one friend who lives in a house, Montreal is a city of renters, and we need to build more apartments or Poilievre might just be able to steal the election. And if we don't build those homes the influx of new immigrants and asylum seekers will only make the problem worse.
As for Justin and Sophie, I'm not worried about them at all. Some friends in Montreal who know them, tell me they're sure they will get back together again, after Sophie gets a break from the Con jungle her husband must by necessity live in. It's going to be closer than I thought, but Poilievre is carrying so much baggage that sooner or later Canadians will realize who he really is, and it will be all over. I'm also sure that Trump's evil behaviour and all his legal problems, will rub off on Poilievre, so despite these troubled times, tomorrow will belong to us...
Attention Cons....To those of you who have been bombarding me with comments only perverts could write, save your energy to wank yourselves silly. Nothing you say affects me in the slightest, those comments will never be published, and they only make me even more determined to defeat you. Until you squeal like pigs...
I'm glad that PP is polling so high at a time when it matters so little. However, I do hope that it will jolt the complacent among us into waking up and casting their vote when the time comes. We can no longer assume that JT will win regardless but rather that there's a real chance that the worst possible PM we could ever have could become reality. Wake up Canada or else the creepy PP will destroy this great country while embarrassing us on a worldwide scale to which we've never been before.
JD
Hi JD...You are right to insist that progressives cannot take the next election for granted. We can't do that because Poilievre with the help of our smarmy Con media has brainwashed a lot of dumb Canadians into believing that he's some kind of messiah who can, among other things, build them a home if they vote for him. It's the biggest con artist scheme I have ever seen, and it needs to be held up to the light and dismantled piece by piece. His failure to even pretend to want to do anything about climate change is also another weak point. He can't do anything because he's in hock to Big Oil, and that will come back to haunt him long before the next election. And the list goes on and on. And there is his racism, his misogyny, his convoy love, that can be used to dismember him, as well as the threat, as you point out, that him and his ugly IDU wife will embarrass us all over the world, and disgrace us like nobody has ever disgraced us before. I know a lot of progressives are feeling a bit discouraged these days, but I'm not. I'm excited at the prospect of going after Poilievre and his fascist pole dancer wife, and hearing them squeal like hogs....
Off-topic, but Harper's right-hand man at the IDU, Mike Roman, is one of the now-indicted co-conspirators in the Trump RICO case in Georgia. I just want to thank Simon for keeping an archive of all the CPC's corruption because I went back and shared a couple articles of his about this guy and Scheer from 2019. Interesting that the IDU website has now deleted his profile, and he is no longer listed as assistant chairman (essentially Harper's consigliere, a promotion from having been the guy who maintains the books). What continues to baffle and frustrate me is how all of this information is there in plain sight, yet MSM abjectly refuses to even mention it at all, preferring instead to jaw on ad nauseam about torqued horse race polls, out-of-context Trudeau quotes from a week ago, and boring, repetitive hot takes and opinion angles about a private matter in the PM's personal life. Skippy and Scheer are going bonkers about the WEF when it's the IDU that poses the real threat to Canada. But are the media, in their unwillingness to discuss this at all, blind, lazy, complicit, blackmailed, or just stupid?
No one will report on the IDU unless it actively interferes in governance, which will only happen if Skippy gets elected.
I don't have anything to say on Justin-Sophie except that I hope both of them enjoy some mental heath breaks and wish their unit well.
Polls are funny, Angus Reid (ANGUS. FUCKING. REID.) Has the CPC down to around 36-37% and the Libs up to 31-32%. Which means they are in a dead heat. Angus Reid (!) has LPC at crushing numbers in Atlantic and tied with CPC in Ontario.
What does this all mean? It means it's a minority government unless people stay home. I'll be voting, I'll help bring my fellow condo owners to vote.
Lastly, if Liberals want to get people onside how about some comms? It's not enough to send JT or a Minister out there to make an announcement. LPC should be buying airtime nonstop: papers, radio, Twitter/X, TikTok, BlueSky, Insta nonstop nonstop. LPC should be helping to build a ton of apartments, they should give people housing credits, they should talk to Banks about mortgage rates.
Instead, LPC IS: "Zzzzzzzzz let's go to the cottage."
If the PMO won't care...
Hi Jackie...I have always believed that the real threat to Canada comes from the far right/religious right in the United States. The Chinese meddlers are just a distraction, and are being used by the Cons and their bought media to disguise those who helped make Pierre Poilievre leader, and are doing their very best to make him Prime Minister. You ask whether our shabby media are "blind, lazy, complicit, blackmailed, or just stupid?" And I'm tempted to answer all of the above. But I think we can narrow it down to stupid and afraid. They are afraid that they will soon lose their jobs, like John Ivison has at the National Post. They believe that dark money from Big Oil and other right-wing business interests can keep them afloat. And as far as the stupid is concerned they seem blind to the diseased misogyny that keeps Poilievre going like some ugly doll from Hell. Take the case of the reporter Teresa Wright who asked Poilievre whether he was courting the far right, only to have PP attack her as a CBC stooge, when she actually works for Global. It was a deranged diatribe and if any in our shabby media bothered to check they would have noticed that nothing bothers Poilievre more than being put on the spot by a female reporter. Again and again he has shown his true colours, and nobody has noticed, or put two and two together. I've reported that when working for the Harper regime he used to get a sick pleasure out of bullying civil servants, until he reduced them to tears. But again nothing but but silence. I blame myself for failing to recognize that those civil servants were almost certainly women, but the pervert pattern is too obvious to ignore. It's very discouraging, and I fear for this country, but I will never stop trying to bring Poilievre to justice....
Hi Pierre...as I think I've said before, I don't believe the polls mean anything at this time. However they are a warning that unless the Liberals step up their game, especially on the housing front, they could lead to big trouble down the road. I think we can all afford to enjoy what's left of the summer, God knows we deserve it. But come the fall we need to hit Poilievre and his Anaconda harder than we ever have before. And not just be dredging up their sordid past, but clearly and instructively dismantling Poilievre's lies. Our loser media should be doing that, but unfortunately we can only count on ourselves....
The liberals are out of synch with me on CRTC issues big time.
Failure on the housing front, PET knew what to do.
Aid for the NEOCONS in Ukraine
Bail reform. We cant have people out on bail , getting bail.
Still I will never vote for PP.
I am concerned that we are not seeing some things. The loudest of the CPC are NOT conservatives.
They are a vitriolic faction inspired by Reform Party ideology and being managed by some master puppeteers!
P.P., D.S. et al. are the mouths, NOT the brains.
To those responsible for trying to destroy democracy... this one is for you!
Kinder, gentler P.P.

Abacaus Data's David Coletto is a former CPC/Refore dude. He's part of the U of Calgary gang that generated Harper et al. If you see CPC going waaaaaaaaaaaay overboard then consider his online polling pool is likely in the prairies or people friendly to CPC.
I can believe people are gettign a little tired of Justin but giving CPC a majority? Not seeing it. Just get some rest and get ready for the fight of your life.
P.S. Who answers polls in the summer? Old people and housebond people and..
Hi Steve...Sorry for taking so long to reply, but I have been in Montreal, where summer and politics don't mix. But I'm back in Toronto, and I see you are like a lot of progressives, angry at the Trudeau Liberals but claiming they won't vote for Poilievre and his gangster Cons. And all I would say is save your vitriol for the Cons, if they win the next election you won't have to worry about the CRTC or any other institution with the word Canada in it...
Hi Diane...You are right, their are powerful hidden forces trying to elect Pierre Poilievre as our next Prime Minister, by whatever means necessary. With the Con media part of this sinister conspiracy, many Canadians have no idea what could happen to them and their country. But don't worry, the Canadian resistance is also working behind the scenes to try to save this country, so you should put your faith in them, and get ready to help them as much as you can...
Hi Pierre...It's not just Abacus, I just saw a Mainstreet poll that gives Poilievre a super majority level of support. As I told you before, none of these polls trouble me too much. The problem is that with no reliable media in this country willing to expose Poilievre's lies and moral corruption, a lot of Canadians are just confused and easily fooled. If we can make up for the absence of a responsible media, and if the Liberals can do more to systematically denounce the Cons AND offer Canadians hope on the housing front, the Cons should deflate like the Hindenburg long before the next election...
Hi Simon et. al.,
I'm a pessimist by nature, but when I come down from panic mode it helps sometimes to look at imperfect historical examples as a way of diffusing my innate obsessive tendency toward five-alarm anxiety.
According to Wiki: The Liberals were in the hole by as many as 13 points at the nadir of SNC in 2019. Leger had a C+13, ARI had a C+11 and Ipsos had a C+10. That's in addition to your assortment of C+8, C+9 single-digit leads that were also pretty bad during what could be called the first major disaster for Trudeau and his Liberals.
That deficit was attained just six months before election day. The Liberals have two years to climb out of this one. Even cutting it by half would still make them competitive come election time. Does that mean complacency, of course not, it never does, but it doesn't have to be a foregone conclusion of doom and gloom either. Something that I'm even having to learn through trial and error, as I've been losing a lot of sleep lately over Trudeau's plight.
This thread from Trudeau's former economic advisor Tyler Meredith may give us all some piece of mind. In reply to Quebec-based economist Stephen Gordon, he rattles off three provincial elections where large deficits were overcome.
"No question it’s daunting. But not unsolvable. Anyone betting on an outcome this far out is wasting money right now."
He also lauds Fraser as the right man at the right time who will be a go-getter on the housing/cost-of-living file. So that's just some food for thought and tender mercies of encouragement going forward. Everybody enjoy the rest of your weekend and these last few days of the summer!
The pollsters are trying to demonstrate that Mr. Poilievre's makeover is working. Of course, they and our media fail to ask why the Conservatives believed he needed a makeover in the first place. In general, political parties that are in good political shape do not have their leaders make sudden and jarring changes in appearance and hire a vocal coach to make the leader's voice sound less weeny.
I do not believe the polls for a whole host of reasons but one thing I did note is a few of the polls show the Conservatives up but they also show the NDP down, by at least 5 points off of their 2021 election results. That would reduce them to unofficial party status if that were to actually happen in an election.
So these good summer polls are useless to the CPC because they cannot force an election without the help of the NDP and they will not be doing that anytime soon.
Hi Jackie....Thanks for explaining why despite the bad polls, all is not lost. The Trudeau government still has plenty of time to turn things around, and demolish Pierre Poilievre's house of cards. There is one big challenge in my opinion, and that is doing something to shock the housing situation back to life, and give the millennial generation hope that they might one day be able to afford a house or an apartment. The problem as I see it, is that too many millennials went for homes they couldn't afford, unless interest rates remained extremely low. Unfortunately for them it was only a matter of time before those interest rates started climbing, and now they are in a panic, and instead of blaming themselves are blaming the Trudeau government. To make matters worse, far too many of them have been fooled by the Con man Poilievre into believing that he has a magic formula that will reduce interest rates and magically gift them a home. To correct the situation the government will have to go big or go home. But it can be done, and if Poilievre can be revealed to be a Con man, other big issues like climate change will help finish him off. I admit that I am not as optimistic as I once was, but I'm still confident that the forces of decency will prevail in the end. So yes, I will enjoy what's left of the summer, and look forward to the battles that lie ahead,,,
Hi Ottlib....I agree that the Con conspiracy is trying to demoralize progressives, by making it look like Poilievre is a new man, and that we need an early election before his makeup melts. As you point out, with the NDP not going anywhere it's not likely to bring down the government. So Justin Trudeau still has lots of time for a policy makeover, and hopefully do a better job of exposing Poilievre's many lies. The Liberals have been far too passive, and it's time they went on the offensive. It won't be easy with the Con media so obviously biased, but it's far from impossible. And hopefully when fall and winter arrive more Canadians will be able to imagine the horror of a Poilievre government and will do what must be done to make sure that never happens....
PP is surging in the polls at same time the Con convention is being held to set party agenda. What a coincidence, any chance the miraculous leadership surge is a message to the party base. Pp is telling them he will be the next prime minster if they can just keep their fringe shit off party policy until after the election, after that they will be amply rewarded.
Will they go along with it or insist he has to publicly acknowledge their retro evangelical conspiracy riddled agenda. One thing for sure is that the policy statements will be a masterpiece in double speak. Its one of the few things the Cons are good at, the public hears one meaning while the fringe hears the exact opposite. Freedom from overbearing government bureaucracy or freedom to discriminate against anyone you choose, especially minority groups. So far the public has caught on to the policy ambiguities, will the new make up artists be more successful? Only if we let them

FYI: As of September 29th, Elon Musk is going to be using all our Twitter accounts and DMs to train his A.I. ghost in a machine. Social media is a total mess right now, and Facebook and Google's shenanigans are only making things worse, so anyone progressive who is on the bluebird app, and doesn't want their comments and private communications mixed in with Nazi rhetoric, decide what you want to do with your data. I will be opening an account over at Blue Sky as a holding ground for now.
Someone has also doxed poor Xavier Trudeau and started sending him hateful messages via Instagram, and another Liberal volunteer I was talking to said that she noticed sexual harassment and rape messages being sent to Sophie. I abjectly hate Poilievre and what he has done to Canada, and I hate that the useless lugenpresse media is so chickenshit they are letting him get away with it. The boy is all of sixteen years old. He is a minor. The people responsible for this should be arrested, jailed, and placed on a registry.
I don't know what is going to happen to Justin Trudeau and his beleaguered team. I have been feeling very ill and despondent as of late, like all the life has drained out of me. Whatever happens, I want to say I appreciate all the contributions from Simon and everyone else on this board. I really do love and appreciate all of you, and I hope to talk to you soon. ❤️️
In Sinapore a public house costs less than an Honda Civic. At least that was how it was last time I was there 20 years ago. 80% of people live in public housing. Even Hong Kong that captilistic pig of a country has something similar. The solution is there. Its just like big telecoms, the goverment is afraid to act.
Hi RT...Yes, the Cons and their crappy Con media are in a feverish frenzy, trying to get Justin Trudeau to resign by barraging him with some dubious polls, two years before the next election. It won't work. Poilievre has just revealed himself, the religious fanatics are screaming for blood, and like the ghost from a Con Christmas Past, Stephen Harper has attached himself to Poilievre, and demanded the removal of the man who humiliated him eight years ago. It couldn't be a more sordid spectacle, and it will end badly for Poilievre...
Hi Jackie....I'm sorry to hear that you are ill and despondent over the current political situation. But who can blame you? We live in a scary time, the fascists are closing in on us, and without a decent media to help rein them in, our country is in great danger. If the polls are to be believed a fair amount of young Canadians have let themselves be fooled by Pierre Poilievre with his politics of resentment and hate, and his hollow promises to make everything better. And unless those younger Canadians are made to understand that Poilievre can only make things worse, this country could be in big trouble. And as if on cue, here comes Stephen Harper to help remind us of the horrors of his depraved regime. Thank you Jesus!!! And that could be the pin that pops Poilievre's balloon. So take care of yourself, and save your strength for the big battles ahead...
Hi Steve...I agree with you, governments should have a much bigger role in providing housing for Canadians. Leaving it up to the private sector, won't supply us with the kind of rental units we need. We need a cross country mega plan to build millions of units as quickly as possible. The Liberals can do that, the Cons can't. And if you take the housing issue away from the Cons, and expose Poilievre as the fraud he is, the Cons should fall out of the sky like a lead balloon....
