Best thing that every happened for oil and gas was this guy losing the last election..
Absolute slug feast and project dead locks had this man went marching around the country with federal mandates and Smith barking over his shoulder.
The push for separatism isn’t because their numbers are strong enough now , its because when Pierre lost, the environment that thrived their growth in numbers disapeared.
Carney was worth that alone , the political landscape has not only change in the liberal party , but the conservatives aswell .

>“Whenever you do a big project where you got workers, investors, governments, local communities and First Nations, everyone’s going to have to make some compromises in order to get things done,” Mr. Poilievre told reporters on Monday.
It would be nice to hear how he thinks *investors* should compromise. Truly, I suspect he doesn’t mean *everyone* so much as he means *everyone who opposes oil and gas development*. He *probably doesn’t* mean that Canadians should compromise and accept more wind and solar generation in lieu of natural gas power plants, and support EV over ICE vehicles.
>Mr. Poilievre said the best way forward on the legislation is to win buy-in by ensuring Indigenous people benefit from the projects. That includes allowing businesses to divert a share of their federal corporate taxes to the local First Nation whose lands the projects go ahead on, he said – reiterating a Conservative election campaign promise.
That’s not businesses compromising. That’s a redirection of tax dollars they would be paying regardless. Why not suggest *requiring* First Nations ownership, instead of simply giving them a slice of the profits at the expense of the rest of Canada?

I totally agree with PP.
Alberta will need to compromise on ghg emissions, for example, admit that climate change is real and transition toward green energy. 🙂

This is rich from the party that steamrolled the first nations over the transmountain pipeline causing chaos and lawsuits for years and in effect scaring off investors so that the Trudeau govt had to buy it outright.

I’m happy to actually be able to agree with Mr Poilievre on anything. On this, we agree. Compromise is necessary to get any big projects moved and I hope the will is there.

Everyone… except Québec. We’ve been forced to compromise for centuries. We are done. PQ will win in 2026. We’ll vote yes in 2028-29 and be done with this failed experiment.

We already compromised him from his seat in Parliament, now if only he’d compromise himself from free government housing.

The problem with this guy is he’s literally the anti-compromiser lol Couldn’t compromise with Jagmeet Singh to force a fall election; couldn’t compromise with Trudeau (at least on message) to counter Donald Trump’s annexation and tariff threats; couldn’t compromise with the PC premiers Ford and Houston during the election; and couldn’t compromise with the grassroots candidates, staffers, and volunteers telling him and Jenni that what they were doing wasn’t working.
The funny thing is compromising with at least *one* of these aforemention people would’ve made him Prime Minister. That points to a person who fundamentally believes that every proposition is zero-sum and there’s no such thing as a mutually beneficially relationship (even if one helps you win at the end). Time for someobody else who does lol
