I know Bernier has come out strongly against all lockdowns. Would be nice if the CPC could support basic freedom.

Your whole notion of "standing up for" is the virtue signaling I'm talking about. What do you actually mean by "stand up for"? Forget the sentimental nonsense for a moment and tell me exactly how you want O'Toole to "stand up for" that.
You want him to tweet against the lockdowns? That will make you "feel" better?
Well I hate to break it to you, but election outcomes don't care about your feelings. O'Toole doing that would alienate the vast majority of voters and ensure Trudeau remains prime minister forever. And how exactly are Canadian civil rights going to be served under permanent Trudeau rule?
Honestly what is so hard to understand about this? How are you not able to reason these things through to their conclusions?
Yet somehow, as a person who wants the lockdowns to end, you think the way to achieve that is to keep handing elections to Trudeau???
This is what I mean when I say I can't wrap my head around your thought process, and am therefore skeptical of whether you're a genuine "ppc supporter" or a Liberal shill posing as one. Because your logic makes zero sense. You claim to be against the lockdowns, but you're advocating for a course of action that will result in continued lockdowns i.e. begging the CPC to hand Trudeau the next election by publicly opposing lockdowns (which have wide public support).
Buddy. You're the one demanding the CPC hand permanent rule to the Liberals by pandering to fringe opinions that will guarantee they lose elections.
Let's play a game.
If polls told you Canadians want massive wealth distribution, a 75% tax rate, critical race theory and transgender theory taught from kindergarten, mandatory race quotas for hiring, etc, would you want the CPC to also take those positions?
Where do you draw the line, Ham? Freedom has always been a conservative position, yet you're against it now because a poll says it isn't popular.
You stand for nothing. You cede everything. It isn't virtue signaling to stand for concrete positions that your party has supposedly stood for since its inception.
No. You're going to answer the question I've repeatedly asked you:
How exactly do you think O'Toole tweeting against the lockdowns is going to improve your situation?
....while driving more votes toward Trudeau, making their hope pointless and futile because you're putting salvation out of reach.
Again, you're putting feelings before reality. You'd rather "feel good" for a few seconds reading a tweet than to oust Trudeau and actually restore sane governance? Seriously?
No, you're fighting against it by stupidly aiding Trudeau through naïve, poorly thought through ideas:
Maybe bold caps will help get it through your head:
YOU'RE LITERALLY DEMANDING O'TOOLE DO SOMETHING THAT WOULD GUARNETEE TRUDEAU WINS A MAJOIRTY IN THE NEXT ELECTION.
YOU'RE DEMANDING O'TOOL ALIENATE 75% OF THE VOTE BY PUBLICY RAILING AGAINST LOCKDOWNS.
YOU ARE HEPING TRUDEAU, NOT CANADIANS.
I would say that percentage is bogus. Unemployment is scarily high right now. I highly doubt that many people want to continue to not have a job.
