There was never much debate about who Alberta prefers between Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Federal Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre — but after Saturday, there’s not even a shred of doubt.
Conservative Party leader Poilievre’s pancake breakfast had about ten times the amount of attendees as Trudeau’s.
To get into Poilievre’s event, lineups could be seen wrapped around buildings. An estimated 10,000 attendees showed up to his event.
On the other hand, the Prime Minister of Canada’s Stampede crowd paled in comparison to Poilievre’s, and this included hecklers who clearly didn’t support him.
One heckler told Trudeau to “Get the WEF out of Canada.”
Poilievre, despite having no official obligation to participate as Leader of the Opposition, was featured on horseback during the annual Stampede Parade. Trudeau dodged the call, and stayed in his hotel room until the parade was over.
