The Conservative Party of Canada elects pro-Bitcoin leader Pierre Poilievre as party head

09/12 07:05

Pierre Poilievre won the leadership race by a landslide and plans to make Canada the “blockchain capital of the world.” The Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) elected pro-Bitcoin Ontario Member of Parliament, Pierre Poilievre, as the party’s new leader on Saturday – and it wasn’t even close. Poilievre garnered over 68% of the conservative vote, miles ahead of his closest rival, former Quebec premier, Jean Charest, who only managed to scrounge up 16% of total votes. Poilievre not only dominated in vote count, but was also the preferred candidate in almost every single riding (electoral district) across Canada. Poilievre has been a vocal proponent of bitcoin, going as far as buying a shawarma with bitcoin on camera at Tahini’s London during his spring CPC leadership campaign. He owns at least $10,000 in units of Purpose Bitcoin, a Canadian bitcoin exchange-traded fund, as per his political disclosures.
