Spy agency said in December it would give Conservative leader briefing without him needing security clearance
Back in my day, a traitor got the rope
He rejected the security clearance because if he mentions anything they show him he can be charged criminally on national scecurity grounds, even as a sitting member of parliment he can be charged and his seat would be in jeopardy if he talks.
The Liberals push for him to get a security clearance was all a tactic to force him into silence under threat of arrest if he mentions what he reads or sees.
Not exactly a ringing endorsement of lil PP
So he can’t keep his mouth shut ABS he’d rather complain about factually wrong things than try and help the country?
The Liberals push for him to get a security clearance was all a tactic
Or the rules.
Probably the rules.
You think other people have to do the same rigamarole? If so, then it’s the rules.
Even when they make Milhouse sad, they’re still rules.
Sure buddy… How is the weather in Northern most capital?
So the Liberals want him to get security briefings so that if he talks about them he will get into trouble?
Couldn’t he just talk about other things but not talk about the briefings? Is the leader of the Conservative party so unable to keep things to himself that he can’t be trusted with secrets? What happens if he is actually put in charge, as PM he gets the briefings then would he have a press conference and read out all the countries secrets?
That doesn’t sound like a very competent leader.
The Liberals wanted Poilievre legally silenced because his arguments were winning against the Liberal talking points. So if he is now forced to stay silent then that allows the Liberals to lie to the people, lie to the public, and Poilievre can’t explain why what they are saying is false. But with him not getting security clearance he can point out falasies in their statements and argue against their logic and there is no legal danger for anything he says because he has not seen anything.
If Poilievre sees some secret information and fires a member of his own Conservative party that is mentioned in the information, Poilievre violated the security act and legally he’s out. Without that security clearance he has full reign as leader without confines or legal restrictions.

No, he doesn’t. Go peddle your dictatorship fantasies elsewhere.
That is the dumbest take.

Nobody is forcing PP to stay silent. He doesn’t want to get security clearance because then he wouldn’t be able to lie about shit he’s been privy to.
If you can’t speak to facts, sit down.
Such a weird refusal.
I initially thought there was something weird he didn’t want to tell the RCMP, but he held top secret clearance as a minister, so I guess he’s just being obstinant.
Yeah. I don’t know how you could read his actions as anything but “having something to hide.”
Or being on side with those that do.
His feelings don’t care about the facts so what difference would actually receiving the briefing make?
This guy can’t be a serious public servant.
You better believe he is.
No he is, just the public he serves isn’t the Canadian people…or at least not 99.99% of them…
