I like Pierre but let's not get too excited. He is not a bitcoiner. He is a politician that has some allegiance to bitcoiners.
I don't care, he is the best we have atm.

Genuine question, what's appealing to him ? Seeing him talking in the parliament didn't gave me a super good vibe about him
reply
not sure what parliament speech you heard.
But the guy have very good speeches about the history of money and theoretical capitalist things.
Also of course he already used bitcoin on daily transactions and for hodling. he have a video buying shawarmas on bitcoin. which is way more than any other politician in Canada.
To finish, keep voting for the guy who sold all the gold of the country and doubled the debt doesn't seem very smart to me. (Trudeau in case you don't know).

I have to admin that I heard more about his rhetorics like the Justinflation or the foreign probe than his view on bitcoin or finances. Thanks for taking the time :)

Unfortunately, politics is getting dirtier and dirtier and it seems to be good for them to insult each other instead of focusing in their own good points and merits.

I think this is fair. It would be nice if politics in general was less of "why he is bad" and more of "why I am good".

He at least purports to care about freedom and fiscal responsibility which sets him apart from the two goofballs right there.

Guessing you aren't a wannabe despot Trudeau or champagne socialist Singh fan? Haha. Pierre is by far the best of the bunch.
