Gaston Lagaffe! Woof, what a shot of nostalgia. Don’t think I’ve seen one of those strips since high school

I’d say Poilievre is a 80% match, Maxime Bernier is 95%

Everyone’s ragging on the Christmas retail ambience songs, but at least you can mitigate the risks of hearing those ones by staying the fuck out of shopping malls. My top three:
