Earlier today, during Question Period, this exchange occurred between the Leader of His Majesty’s Loyal Opposition, Pierre Poilievre, and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

“But speaking of misinformation and disinformation any responsible leader that recieves and endorsement and support from proven conspriacy theorist and liar Alex Jones would have immediately denounced that but that’s not what the leader of the opposition did. He did absolutely nothing because those kinds of endorsements fit within his political strategy.” – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau

Prime Minister Trudeau was referring to Alex Jones’ recent tweet endorsing Poilievre.

Investigative Journalist Rachel Gilmore tweeted about it:

Huge congrats to Pierre Poilievre for securing the coveted Alex Jones endorsement!!!!

It can’t have been easy to dogwhistle conspiracy theories often enough to clinch the support of a Sandy Hook shooting denier, but my god, Poilievre did it. pic.twitter.com/LADuBQcxre

Alison Creekside reminded everyone that this wasn’t the first time Jones showed support for Pierre Poilievre:

This isn't even the first time Alex Jones has boosted Poilievre.
"During an interview with John Birch Society Robert Owens, Jones identified Poilievre as one of the leaders of a “rising” global far-right movement that is challenging the “New World Order. https://t.co/fbKzfb1VU6

Here’s the Press Progress article from 2022 by Emily Leedham:

Far-Right Conspiracy Theorist Alex Jones Praises Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre

According to Jones, those far-right leaders include Canada’s new Conservative leader as well as Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro and Italian President Georgia Meloni.
“As negative as things are, we got Bolsonaro, we got Georgia Meloni in Italy, we got the new Canadian leader who’s set to beat Trudeau — who is totally anti-New World Order,” Jones said on his September 30 broadcast.
“You look all over the world, we are rising right now.”

After that exchange in the House of Commons, the Prime Minister answered questions from the Bloc Quebecois and NDP leaders.

Then Poilievre rose to ask this question.

The Prime Minister had left, so the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, Jonathan Wilkinson, once again called out Poilievre on his Mis/Disinformation.

It sounds to me like Poilievre was knocked down a peg or two after Trudeau wiped the floor with him.

All PP can do is rage farm, spread lies and repeat the same silly slogans over and over and over again.

The gloves have come off, and Pierre can’t think on his feet.
