The True North Eager Beaver
No Freedom for PeePee's MPs / Nova Scotia Debate — The Daily Beaver Morning Show
Season 4, Ep. 518
•
On Episode 515 of our show, we explore reported tensions within the Conservative Party of Canada as frustrated MPs balk at the iron grip control freak Pierre Poilièvre, who is muzzling them, putting words in their mouths without their consent, not to mention having them monitored and surveilled for "punishment" if they commit political crimes (according to PeePee) such as "fraternizing" with MPs of other parties. All of them appear to be "under his eye". We also explore the Nova Scotia Leaders debate.
We also talk about:
* "Build the Homes (Just Not Now)"?
* Mayor of Butternut Valley, NB, Alan Brown
* The PM Is Asked About Tulsi Gabbard
* Free Trade with Indonesia
* The PM at APEC
* Argos Win the Grey Cup
* A Tonal Shift for the PM on Immigration
* The Therme Spa Lease Allows It to Draw Water
* Nova Scotia Sells Hundreds of Millions of Litres of Water to Corporations for $768.85
* Conservative MPs Called Back From Overseas Summit Without Any Public Explanation
* Focus Nova Scotia: Moments from the Leaders Debate
* The PM on Security Clearances from His Public Inquiry Testimony
The Daily Beaver Morning Show is broadcast LIVE (most of the time), weekdays at 7-ish a.m. Eastern (tech willing).
