It's funny how everyone here thinks I support the Conservatives because I understand practicalities and different viewpoints.Even though I've never voted conservative in my life. I've voted in the last 6 federal elections two of which were for the NDP. This is exactly why people consider the left radical. No room for rational practicality, just dogmatic adherence to a narrative.
Get with the programme. People aren't buying it anymore. It's almost like you want leftist ideology to flounder. It's unfortunate that good leftist policies are going to be thrown out with the radical ones but hey, at least you'll have a villain to fight and add some faux meaning to your lives.

Getting security clearance should not be a partisan issue. Intelligence agencies have reported credible foreign interference going back years and all but one party leader has the ability to act on that knowledge.
Nobody has claimed you support the conservatives in this thread up until this comment at least, they've only debated the points you have and happen to disagree with your stance because it doesn't hold up. Don't fall for the trap narrative of thinking everyone here hates you just because they think you're conservative. They are annoyed because while there have been some good posts and points in favor of him getting his security clearance and instances of previous conservative opposition leaders being able to act on the information provided by CSIS, you have provided nothing but the same points Pierre is trying to use to convince us it's better if he doesn't. You said it yourself, dogmatic adherence to a narrative. If this has never been an issue for past conservative leaders, never been an issue for other opposition party leaders, why is it for Pierre?
