You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:
This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 98.80.0.0/16 has been blocked by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 07:31, 6 August 2027. Your current IP address is 98.80.247.165.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

After [[Justin Trudeau]], leader of the Liberal Party which controlled the [[List of senators in the 41st Parliament of Canada|second most Senate seats]], began implementing his Senate reform plan of making senators independent with a non-partisan appointment process, Poilievre dismissed the measures, maintaining that Senators should be elected.<ref>{{cite news |title=Mr. Trudeau's Senate surprise|newspaper=The Globe and Mail|date=January 30, 2014 |page=A14}}</ref>

In a small cabinet shuffle, instigated by the decision of Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird to not seek re-election, the prime minister promoted Poilievre, on February 9, 2015, to a ministerial position. He replaced [[Jason Kenney]] as [[Minister of Employment and Social Development|minister of employment and social development]] and took on Baird's role as minister responsible for the [[National Capital Commission]] while keeping his duties as the minister responsible for democratic reform.<ref>{{cite news|title=Pierre Poilievre takes charge of one key to Conservative election win|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/pierre-poilievre-takes-charge-of-one-key-to-conservative-election-win-1.2951826|access-date=September 10, 2020|archive-date=October 16, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231016171104/https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/pierre-poilievre-takes-charge-of-one-key-to-conservative-election-win-1.2951826|url-status=live}}</ref> Also at that time, the National Capital Commission was pursuing the development of the [[Memorial to the Victims of Communism – Canada, a Land of Refuge]] and trying to decide where to locate it; Poilievre advocated for the site adjacent to the Supreme Court of Canada building.<ref>{{cite news |title=Anti-communism memorial better than building an office, minister says |last1=Curry |first1=Bill |last2=Bozikovic |first2=Alex |newspaper=The Globe and Mail|date=March 25, 2015}}</ref>

Poilievre and the Conservatives put forward a motion in November 2022 to audit federal COVID-19 spending including the [[ArriveCAN]] app. The motion passed resulting in an audit of the federal government's spending.

In December, Liberal MPs criticized the audit for being done for partisan reasons and "political games" while Conservative MPs defended the independence of the auditor.<ref>{{cite web |last=Levitz |first=Stephanie |title=Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives defend auditor general as Liberal minister says critical report was politically motivated |url=https://www.thestar.com/politics/federal/2022/12/06/pierre-poilievres-conservatives-defend-auditor-general-as-liberal-minister-says-critical-report-was-politically-motivated.html |website=Toronto Star |date=December 6, 2022 |access-date=March 8, 2023 |archive-date=March 8, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230308212958/https://www.thestar.com/politics/federal/2022/12/06/pierre-poilievres-conservatives-defend-auditor-general-as-liberal-minister-says-critical-report-was-politically-motivated.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

Poilievre has since argued that Canada should pursue reductions on immigration and asylum intake.

In June 2024, Poilievre stated that if he became Prime Minister he would significantly reduce the numbers of asylum seekers and temporary residents, citing the high amount of new arrivals compared to Canada's housing supply. During a speech in [[Quebec]], Poilievre said that current levels of immigration into Canada are too high and in government he would link immigration numbers to the number of homes built, citing lack of accommodations and the capacity of the healthcare system to support current migrant numbers.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://financialpost.com/real-estate/pierre-poilievre-pledges-tie-immigration-levels-homebuilding |title=Pierre Poilievre pledges to tie immigration levels to homebuilding |access-date=2024-08-15 |quote=The Conservative politician who’s trying to take down Justin Trudeau said that if he’s elected, he would link Canada’s immigration levels to the number of homes being built. |archive-date=January 21, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240121210156/https://financialpost.com/real-estate/pierre-poilievre-pledges-tie-immigration-levels-homebuilding |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://nationalpost.com/opinion/pierre-poilievre-housing-crisis-runaway-immigration-levels |title=John Ivison: Poilievre signals he's willing to take a hatchet to runaway immigration levels |access-date=2024-08-15}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Immigration: "Le Québec est au point de rupture", dit Poilievre |url=https://www.tvanouvelles.ca/2024/06/20/immigration-le-quebec-est-au-point-de-rupture-dit-poilievre |access-date=27 June 2024 |agency=TVA Nouvelles |date=20 June 2024|quote={{lang|fr|«Ça va être beaucoup plus bas, surtout pour l’immigration temporaire.

Poilievre has also called for a tougher policy against illegal immigration and has accused the Trudeau government of allowing illegal border crossings at [[Roxham Road]] to continue.
