I am not talking about the Conservative Party. I am talking about Pierre Poilievre. I have stated that I do not like career politicians. But this is not his own doing. Why should he turn down a potential pension 30 years before he can receive it? What if he leaves office and later on returns? Why should he limit himself? Again, I am only talking about Pierre Poilievre. The Conservative spending is another issue entirely.

Just as a note, Andrew Scheer also comes up for this... I don't really see a problem with the pension thing to be honest, possibly make the amount of time you need longer, but c'est la vie.

Poilievre did not milk the system. He happens to now be eligible for the benefit. He did not ask for it. I'm not quite sure what he is supposed done here. Ban the MP pension system? MPs work exceptionally hard, and we want the best and brightest to work in public service. Nortel is a public company, and sometimes bad things happen in industry. We acknowledge these hardships that can occur in a capitalist society. Maybe MP pensions are too high. That doesn't mean it is the fault of any party.

I'm not defending any party here. I'm defending this MP because he did absolutely nothing wrong. He simply qualified for a program he won't be able to access for 30 years.

Pierre earns his keep and does his job unlike Justin.

Garbage. Every politician receives a full pension if they serve 6 years or more. We should be more incensed about the politicians receiving raises each of the last 3 years on average of $3700 , yes even through covid when trudeau said we were all in this together.

If Rick has a problem with the federal government having setup of pension system that rewards a two-term MP a pension regardless of their age, he should have directed the message at them. Instead he make this strange suggestion that Poilievre has done something wrong. It's also rich to hear this from the CBC given that everyone involved in making this will be on a fat pension supported by taxpayers because the monetization value of their content is lower than the mid-tier KZreadr operating on their cellphone from their kitchen table.

A couple "clarifications"... 1. Contrary to Mercer, Poilievre does NOT qualify for his pension NOW; having served six years he is now *eligible* for an MPs' pension - WHEN he turns 55 (in June 2034). Until then he'll never see a dime, even if he were voted out in the next election. 2. As for Mercer's allegation that Poilievre never held a "job", he should've looked a little harder. According to Wikipedia, Poilievre worked for Magna International and owned a polling and consulting firm.

Concerning this video, what would you expect from the Liberal entrenched CBC. The mouthpiece for the Liberal party. Sell the CBC. Its outlived its usefulness and is no longer impartial.

@@SenorMeinKrafter You mean honestly working for decades you can't acquire a $ million in the Western country like Canada used to be? Well, it was possible. But doesn't it bother you that Trudeau was born into millions, a family of "elite"? It does not bother me what he inherited btw, but he is not a specialist in anything except of demagoguery. What concerns me is that he gets away with all scandals (more than anybody in Canadian history!), and his ideology inherited from China Communist Party and Castro - regimes that killed millions. He definitely follows their tactics demonizing opposition and imposing "emergency" act when people peacefully opposed his tyranic policies. What bothers me is that he controls the court (Jody Wilson-Raybould exposed the SNC-Lavalin scandal), appeases terrorists (for example, paid 30 mln to 3 Islamic terrorists), bribes media (example $600 mln to CBC), uses non-profit organizations for his own family profit (example WE scandal), breaks the rules he imposed on Canadians (lockdown, masks), that he is a flaming racist (Mr. Blackface), mysoginist (assaulted a female reporter), hypocrit (crying about residential schools which were blooming under his father's leadership, apologized on behalf of all Canadians, but never on behalf of his own family! Flying 2 planes for his campaign, when everybody has one, to teach people about carbon footprint!). And the most important things - poisoneous education system similar to Soviet - pure ideology, brainwashing kids from the very early age. As for his views on the budget, we see the result! Justinflation is raging, life in Canada is not affordable any more. If you live in Canada and you watch his Q&A sessions, where he avoids every direct question, then I question your analytical abilities. If you are not in Canada and/or judge by the MS media that is covering for him, your opinion is not based on realily.
