Thomas says Pierre doesn’t pass the daughter test and talked about Pierre being ne of the reasons why he won’t be voting for Pierre even as a (former) conservative Deputy Premier. Dean and Thomas dug into foreign interference including the India BS. It’s kind of a shocking show to be honest. There were some bombs in that Podcast and Thomas has some spine. That’s his former party and he swings in the same circles as a lot of these guys and calls he basically called pathological and how he wouldn’t trust either Smith or Poilievre isn’t compromised. Pierre Especially. I’m sure this will piss some people off. Enjoy.
