On the eve of Canada's federal election, Pierre Poilievre wrapped up his final campaign rally in his home riding, drawing a massive crowd that defied headlines from outlets like The Globe and Mail, which suggested he might lose his seat. Despite such speculation, at the time of publication, polls give him a 93% chance of winning.

On Sunday, I spoke to supporters about the mixed signals from the media — and what the future might hold if Liberal leader Mark Carney wins on Monday.

I spoke to a @PierrePoilievre supporter here at the leader’s final rally before tomorrow’s election.

He calls out the fake news claiming the riding is lost to the Liberals, and warns the country will be “in disarray” if Mark Carney is elected Prime Minister.

For many, showing up was about more than politics. “I just want to show my support on the last day and hopefully this really goes our way,” said a local from Smith Falls. Another added, “I want to hear what he has to say myself. Legacy media spins everything.”

The size of the rally offered reassurance. “This is the most important election in my lifetime,” said a father. “Being surrounded by others who care gives me hope.”

Addressing reports Poilievre could lose his seat, most supporters scoffed. “He’s won here for decades. Why would that change now?” said one woman. Others cited overwhelming support on the ground: “I counted ten Poilievre signs in a row. I just don't buy what the media says anymore.”

He goes on to say he hopes to see Canada united, but understands the frustrations from the West if the Liberals are re-elected.

When asked if Poilievre should stay on as Conservative leader even if the Liberals win, the answer was unanimous. “Absolutely,” one man said. “He’s the strongest opposition we’ve had in years. There's nobody better to keep fighting.”

Looking ahead, many expressed deep concern if Mark Carney becomes Prime Minister. “It'll be disastrous,” said one supporter. “Western separation isn’t a joke anymore.” Another warned, “If Alberta goes, Quebec might follow. Carney could end up king of a broken country.”

As for media portrayals comparing Poilievre to Donald Trump, supporters flatly rejected it. “He’s anything but Trump. He’s his own man and he’s always been respectful but firm.”

As thousands gathered here in Carleton, the message was clear: no matter Monday's outcome, Poilievre’s base is ready to stand with him — and to fight for the future they believe in.

Please help me stop Mark Carney — before it’s too late!

Mark Carney wasn’t elected — he was installed by the global elites. And now that he’s in charge, they think they’ve won. But not if we have anything to say about it. While the bought-and-paid-for media slobber over their new golden boy, we’re hitting the streets, digging into his World Economic Forum playbook, and calling out the radical agenda they’re trying to ram down Canada’s throat. This is the fight of our lives — and we’re not backing down. Help us keep our reporters on the ground, our billboard truck on the move, and our message uncensored. Pitch in now if you want to stop Mark Carney before he does irreversible damage.
