If you want to jump on X to tell me it’s been hot before so there’s no need to warn people about the heat, please don’t. 619 people died in B.C. In 2021 due to extreme heat. I will also continue to warn you about blizzards even though we’ve had them before.

I'll show you weird.

Here is @PierrePoilievre finishing one of his fake press briefings.

He then wonders off, can't find his way back into the Parliament buildings, waves to non-existent people, and shambles off, stage left. pic.twitter.com/L12HuvsfM4
