Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre on Friday morning told the Western Standard he’s fighting for “freedom and prosperity” in the Alberta riding of Battle River–Crowfoot. Poilievre, who stopped for an interview during the Stampede Parade, has been campaigning in the riding touring Drumheller, Stettler, Camrose and other small towns across the riding. .“It’s been going great,” said Poilievre.“People want to fight for oil and gas, for farming, for our soldiers in Wainwright.”“And it's so great to be back in my hometown to fight for the values and the people that I love.”“They want us to produce more of our oil and gas. Hardisty, which is in Battle River-Crowfoot is probably the biggest energy hub in Canada, maybe in North America, and they could be pumping more oil into more pipelines if we could get them built.”“We need to repeal the gun laws. Let people legally enjoy their property in a responsible way. They also want to lock up the repeat offenders. Rural crime is on the rise.”“It's not safe like it used to be. They want safety, freedom and prosperity.”
