He recently gave a speech about Israel to a synagogue in Montreal which shares his views on Israel and presumably anticipates what government policy will be when he becomes PM. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/pierre-poilievre-middle-east-synagogue-1.7160436 A pretty reasonable set of principles in my opinion, with perhaps one exception. I'm sad to see that he still supports a two-state solution, an idea that seems completely unrealistic since the failure of the Oslo Accords, but I suppose the idea of unconditionally supporting Israel is a little too "out there" to be politically possible just yet. Poilievre is clearly heading in the right direction, in sharp contrast to Trudeau who is hewing ever closer to being an outright supporter of Hamas and the other Iranian proxies. -- Rhino
