Trump is demanding universities change policies or face defunding. Would Poilievre do the same?

U.S. President Donald Trump has been threatening to cancel funding for some universities unless they accede to his demands to change ideological policy, similar to a pledge Pierre Poilievre has made for Canadian post-secondary schools.

But so far, the Conservative leader has been sparse on details of exactly what kind of action he might take.

Poilievre, meanwhile, has also threatened to defund universities over what he perceives as their ideological slant. In a Christmas Eve tweet on X, formerly known as Twitter, Poilievre said he would "defund wokism and fight antisemitism."

That tweet was linked to a telephone interview he gave WinnipegJewishReview.com in which he was quoted as saying he won't tolerate and will defund "all of those with a woke antisemitic agenda," including universities that receive federal funding and all federally funded museums.

Surprise, surprise, more proof he is nothing but a trump clone, not that we should need any more proof.

1. No matter the lies coming out of his mouth,

Count on PP mirroring everything Trump is doing, only without as much bluster. He is getting his marching orders from IDU (which Harper heads) and includes dictators Orban, Modi and Putin. They are all one in same.
