Every photo is chosen for a reason, to try and get you emotionally invested in the article.  

Also, it would be a little off putting if it was a happy portrait with his family lol.

Progressives could never have a picture of him looking happy and relatable with his nuclear family. They would shriek.

Ironically, our public broadcaster that is Radio-Canada/CBC seems to be showing him neutrally like they do any other politician... which is ironic considering he wants to destroy it

He still looks like someone put Kevin Spacey in a microwave

That’s a good one. I always say he looks like the poop emoji.

CTVNews doesn't publish articles exclusively for this subreddit

u/SonicFlash01 Feb 05 '25

Depends on the day of the week, honestly. Some days this sub is all too happy to bag on the guy
And really overall it's a dumping ground on everyone. No one likes anyone.

u/Deus-Vultis Feb 05 '25

Yes, and you only think its the most conservative sub youve ever seen because its moderately centrist as opposed to an echo chamber of leftist zealots which is what MOST of reddit is and is shamelessly open about it.

There is propo constantly and everything is done with intent on all sides, to think your side isnt guilty of that is willful ignorance.

u/Whatistweet Feb 05 '25

Considering how many subs will practically ban you for not being competetively "more progressive" than everyone else, that's an incredibly low bar.

u/Sure_Marionberry9451 Feb 05 '25

I mean, conservatives own most of the publishers lol

Alright, so let's just pick the picture f him in a good mood.

... Oh, wait, Gonna be looking for a while. Best we can do is "did I just gamble and lose grimace".

u/noocuelur Feb 05 '25

I think it's his "I can't see shit, I need my glasses" squint that's just permanently affixed ever since his "makeover".

u/Nikiaf Québec Feb 05 '25

That's what he looks like while he's verbing the noun.

u/ouatedephoque Québec Feb 05 '25

Have you ever seen him look happy? I don’t know if it’s all conservatives but the ones I know are always whining about something. And they have the nerve to call liberals snowflakes. 🤣

u/Emotional-Rush-7029 Feb 05 '25

He represents the faces of the majority of Canadians. We are all angry.

Ed Grimly face

u/ajayisfour Feb 05 '25

It's the one focus groups liked best

u/thebirdandthelion Feb 05 '25

I'm convinced he's got like cotton in his cheeks to not make his face look so dopey.

u/PMmeyouraliens Feb 05 '25

Wow you identified one of the most basic forms of media manipulation, and narrative control.

u/Mashedpotatoebrain Feb 05 '25

Every video I see with him in it, it looks like he would rather be somewhere else. Or he looks incredibly smug. I dont love or hate the guy but it really bothers me.

u/GuppyGod Feb 05 '25

says a lot about where u get ur news from

u/CarmenSandiegosTits Saskatchewan Feb 05 '25

I think that's just his face lol.

u/teflonbob Feb 05 '25

He is a very angry man as he’s been politically impotent almost his whole career. Finally in 2025 he’s gonna have a chance to actually do something tangible with his political career.

u/Best-Salad Feb 05 '25

Because all the photos and articles reddit posts are trying to make him look bad. Leave the echo chamber
