Hi, it's Sandy from Ontario. Hey Sandy. How are you? I'm doing well. How are you guys? good. What's on your mind? yeah to bring attention to the new conservative leader of the federal Party of Canada. Pierre Poilievre. who is speaking in fascism? yeah, he's actually I think Matt Binder might be interested in him. He wants to make Canada the crypto capital of the world. ah yes. and he he's huge into cryptocurrency even had like when he was running to be the leader of an ad campaign of him using cryptocurrency to buy shawarma. and yeah he has a lot of ties with a lot of white nationalist groups. he tends to support them but people are always like oh but he's not a fascist you know. he's not a white supremacist. and it's like no it's kind of like saying I'm not going to burn the house down I'm just going to get the gasoline and the matches to the people who will. yeah, a lot of he's a full populist his popularity is actually surging because there's no one on the left to counter him. There's no populace left in Canada. and so he's appealing to younger people. He's appealing to desperate people. and he'll say all the things they want to hear.
