Polievre is cruel

Conservative leader Pierre Polievre said he would cut "wasteful" foreign aid if and when he is elected prime minister.

And he said he would work towards increasing Canada's defence funding to two per cent of Gross Domestic Product. That's the same announced goal of every Canadian prime minister over at least 30 decades.

Polievre seems to think aid that goes to countries ruled by dictators and to United Nations agencies qualifies as wasteful.

What about the poor people that are being helped with Canadian foreign aid.

I guess he would throw them into the trash.

That's cruel, Polievre.

Cruel.
