EXCLUSIVE: Man Says Pierre Poilievre Was His Childhood Bully — But Still Plans to Vote for Him

A Calgary man comes forward with allegations against Conservative leader @PierrePoilievre, claiming he was physically and emotionally bullied by him as a teen.

“Mr. Poilievre was one of my childhood bullies.”

“He picked me up on my face and lift me up — which was not very good for the neck and the back.”

“He gave me a beatdown on more than one occasion... he was quite the terror to most of the kids on the block.”

The man says Pierre Poilievre disappeared from the neighborhood for several years:

“One day, he up and vanished. And then he came back. But we didn't have any other interactions.” This raises the question whether there may be other reasons why Mr. Poilievre has not applied for a security clearance.

Despite the lasting impact of the alleged abuse, he still says:

“I haven't forgiven him. I haven't forgotten about it. But I do believe Pierre is the best choice of the candidates out there... I’m going to be voting for him.”

The interviewee estimates Pierre Poilievre was 4–5 years older and had already left high school when he started. While they weren’t in school together, they lived on the same block — raising concern that Poilievre was targeting someone significantly younger during the alleged bullying.

I reached out to Mr. Poilievre to ask whether he disputes these allegations and whether he plans to address them in a manner befitting someone seeking to be Prime Minister. As of publication, no response has been received.
