The Conservative leader has called on Trudeau to “come clean” about the evidence behind the allegation against India, saying Canadians deserve more facts.

Singh said Tuesday he does not support that call.

“They’re matters of national security and so information cannot be released beyond the general statements that were released,” he said.

Oh look, Poilievre's taking childish populist shots while Singh is acting like a grown-up. What a surprise.

Pierre is that "I dont want solutions I want to be mad" meme incarnate.

The guy was invited to see the evidence and won't go. What a joke.

He's a one note pony. The Fuck Trudeau show.

When he talks policies he tanks because people realize he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

When he talks common sense people get to fill in the blanks with whatever they want and when he criticizes Trudeau his base loves it.

I’m looking forward to the debates but I think he’s going to skip them to circle jerk with Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan.

I don't think it's even that. Policies his base would support are noxious to everyone else. Having no substance is the main path to power that sidesteps that, and then he can just do what he wants until next election.

That's the modern Conservative Party of Canada. There's a fundamental split you get to see played out every time a new leader is elected. I'm reminded of the vote for the ban on conversion therapy (the Conservatives were the only party that was divided), O'Toole's attempt to address climate change in the CPC policy convention, and of course Joe Clark's admonitions back at the merger of the PCs and the Reform Party.

They interviewed the former head of CSIS and he said the same thing. Can't reveal your sources because it puts it at risk.
