During question period, faced with a question over soaring vehicle thefts, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau switched the focus to Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s campaign manager, Jenni Byrne, and her alleged ties to Loblaws. “If Canadians are going to believe this leader of the opposition, he needs to come clean with who is funding his organization,” he said. In response, Poilievre said Trudeau was “desperate” and listed several people in Trudeau’s orbit, including his marketing director Max Valiquette, who he said had ties to the grocery giant. Poilievre also repeated his accusation that carbon pricing has contributed to food inflation – a claim which Trudeau said there is no evidence to support.
