Dude's never worked an hourly wage job in life. He can go fuck himself.
He will be the next conservative leader to defeated by the wise Canadians.
Hopefully he will quit politics afterwards and everyone in parliament would breath a sigh of relief.
He worked a job as a teenager and started his own business before becoming an MP..... this info isn't hard to find.
Neither of these are hourly jobs.
This wouldn't be an hourly job either. The links to the source for him starting this company don't list Poilievre as a director, or any other sign that he actually started this company, or what his role at it was. I've tried searching but can't find anything else that verifies this.
His business where both he and his partner dipped to politics as soon as possible. And was a paperboy, with one summer job in university. I've worked literal years more than he ever has.
*Edit: and working in political parties is not working, that's politics.
Yeah, and so have I. That doesn't change the fact that "has never worked for an hourly wage" is a false statement.
Alright we'll change it to "never really worked a day in his life" then. Better?

This company?
Before entering politics, Poilievre co-founded a short-lived company called 3D Contact Inc., providing robocall services for the Conservative Party of Canada.
