In America, this has meant firing people whose job it is to know things, targeting black and female officers to deny them promotion, and promoting people on the basis of vibes and politically correct recitations instead of competence.
The first war fought with this ethos was the most humiliating defeat of the USA since the turn of the 20th centurt.

US Warrior Culture: Start a fight with someone weaker, destroy some things but achieve nothing, realize your opponent has more stamina than you, then try to bribe them to stop fighting so they won’t embarrass you in front of your friends.
I think we can do without that.

This is more meat for his base, and in particular for the sort of person that is also a target for „*active clubs*“ and „*manosphere*“ influencers. Those that hold the idea that *empathy* is an immoral, non-masculine trait; and believe that *violence and aggression* are the strongest expressions of masculinity.
Whereas Canada has long been a leader in peace keeping, de-escalation, and progressive morality in a world of violence. What Poilievre is suggesting is that we abandon the role we’ve held since Korea, and instead become *more American*.

He should really clarify what he means with this parroting. Would it include the causal racist pettiness of erasing the historic contributions of CAF members and denying promotions for members who don’t match his loyalty or purity tests for example?

Is he going to intimidate or force out non-white male officers and lose conflicts? Because that’s what Hegseth is doing.
Why is the Conservative Party of Canada constantly issuing MAGA rhetoric ?

Fight against the woke agenda? Anything that comes from the Trump administration is racist and bigoted. PP maybe it’s time for you to hang up the gloves. You are unelectable

He just can’t help himself can he….
PP tries to pivot publicly but he somehow can’t follow through and actually make it stick.

Cringe bro. Honestly he keeps making worse and worse PR moves. I guess that’s to be expected when most of his campaign advisers worked for Trump 2016.

Canada has never had a warrior culture.
We have had good soldiers, we are good diplomats and wonderful friends. But never in our history have we had a warrior culture. Nor do I think we need one.

„the fight against the woke agenda“ is clearly a grift down south. To echo that to Canadians should ring so many alarm bells but obviously it won’t.

PP plagiarizing Pete Hegseth is hilariously on brand. Next year, he should get a crusader tattoo & pray for Jesus to vanquish his Muslim opponents on the battlefield.
I bet there are a lot of Women & Minority officers in the Canadian Armed Forces who are thankful he’s not Prime Minister.

Again with the anti-woke rhetoric. It’s obvious that it plays into his base, but will reasonable Conservative-leaning voters care that much?
I’m honestly tired of being right about the Republican-CPC pipeline. We shouldn’t need to worry about crypto-fascists infiltrating our government and enacting the same disastrous policies that we’ve seen in the US.
