I do not like the reporting in the Toronto Star, I’m ok with bias (everyone has that) but they’re simply not objective with their reporting and this article is a prime example.

For anyone who only reads headlines, that’s a big AH HA moment but there’s absolutely nothing there. Pierre Poilievre bought a broad based Vanguard Canadian ETF that happens to have Brookfield stocks in it, it’s not like he purchased them directly himself. By the headline’s logic, I’m a Nazi because I buy Vanguard VFV every month and it holds Tesla. It’s so bad that the article rebuts the headline, so what was the point?
Unfortunately most people don’t read past the headline and will assume Mr. Poilievre is a hypocrite when that’s not justified (in this case).
