Pierre Poilievre hosts meet and greet at United Supermarket
Plenty of Conservative party supporters came to United Supermarket Thursday afternoon to show their support for Tory leader Pierre Poilievre.
In an opening speech that was also translated into Mandarin, Poilievre reiterated many of his campaign promises, such as "axe the tax" and "jail not bail for violent criminals."
Many attendees were holding "Ban the Drugs" signs as Poilievre alleged that the federal Liberals and NDP are moving towards decriminalizing hard drugs.
Dozens of supporters then got in line for a photo opportunity and a handshake amidst grocery shoppers in the store.
