Pierre Poilievre flies economy, but is it a photo op? We expose Poilievre’s $307,700 salary, $8.8M spending, and the $1,875 Conservative Convention Calgary 2026 tickets. Is Pierre Poilievre really a "Man of the People," or is the economy class photo just a massive PR stunt? Tonight on The Political Orphans, we go beyond the viral images to look at the hard receipts. We break down the numbers the mainstream media won’t: The Salary Gap: How Poilievre’s $307,700 income compares to the average Canadian worker. The Pension: Why the taxpayer-funded $8 million pension payout is a far cry from the CPP. The $8.8M Office: Why the Leader of the Opposition is the highest spender in Parliament.

The $300k Gate: Why regular Canadians are financially barred from running for Conservative leadership.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just torched Prime Minister Mark Carney on CNBC: "Do what's best for the Canadian people, not your own virtue signaling." Fresh off Davos posturing, Carney gets schooled ahead of brutal USMCA talks. Meanwhile, starting TODAY (Jan 26, 2026), federal guidelines allow permanent auto-deletion of chat messages after 15 days – and emails after 30. Transparency? More like a cover-up. We break it down, play the clips, and expose the elite games. Plus: Surrey's extortion emergency, Law Commission warning of "democratic decay," and live with Rob Anders on the Conservative convention chaos – is Poilievre safe? Don't miss it.

Carney flat-out denies U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's claim he walked back his Davos comments during an Oval Office call. Classic deflection.

Meanwhile, Conservative MPs cheer Bill C-9 being "on hold" for bail reform priority. So WHAT? This delay means nothing. Bill C-9 would still define "hatred" in the Criminal Code as an emotion involving "detestation or vilification stronger than disdain or dislike." The Code has no hate definition now—and that's how it should stay. We don't need Canada turning into the UK, arresting 13,000+ people yearly for social media posts. This threatens religious freedoms (especially Christians) and free speech for everyone. Conservatives need to stop high-fiving and fight to scrap C-9 entirely.
