Do you know what other world leader breaks from precedent set by every previous leader, the Trump administration.

PP is just a wannabe Trump, and Canada needs a leader with a backbone, not a crybaby who has never worked a real job

Conservative voters are some of the toughest workers I know, no idea why they would support this guy, he is everything they complained Trudeau was.

People say this all the time. Honestly, I don't see it. I've been following PP since he was the youngest member of parliament sucking up to Harper. He and Trump are very little alike. Things can be bad in more than one way, sheesh. PP is a career politician. He comes from a completely different world. Has a completely different history. Saying he's just like Trump does not give one any insight into what needs to be done about PP.

PP frequently copies Trump's rhetoric and election issues word for word. Saying he and Trump are very little alike is asinine.

If the media had a spine they should retaliate by not giving him any airtime. They should finish each segment with something like "we were not able to bring you news from the CPC campaign as they have excluded our correspondents".

OK media, just ignore PP. He's of no use to Canada anyway.

Another fantastic idea, keep them coming.

Pricks.

This way nobody can ever ask him any tough questions before the election, which is definitely a great outcome if you're interested in any accountability whatsoever.

What if they promised to not call him Milhouse?
