Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) Leader Pierre Poilievre, who is campaigning to oust Justin Trudeau and become the next Prime Minister of Canada, visited 51暗网 and Stoney Creek this past Friday and Saturday.
Social media posts from Poilievre鈥檚 X account (formerly Twitter) detailed his schedule.
First, Poilievre tweeted that he visited S.M. Cladding Solutions on Arvin Avenue in Stoney Creek near Green Road.
The company describes themselves as 鈥渁 small yet extremely capable master fabrication company specializing in aluminum composite panels and profiled metal siding.鈥�
Poilievre tweeted: 鈥淭he workers at S.M. Cladding Solutions in Stoney Creek make buildings that stand the test of time. Common sense Conservatives will cut the bureaucracy and red tape, so they keep working to build, build, build.鈥�
He then stopped at Tube-Mac Piping Technologies, also on Arvin Avenue in Stoney Creek but at Glover Road, which is a piping system repair and installation business.
After that, Poilievre visited Miceli鈥檚 Bakery in Stoney Creek on Barton Street near Dewitt Road, which he called a 鈥渕ust-stop.鈥�
He then dropped in at the construction site of the new Muse Condos building by DeSantis Homes on Green Road at the North Service Road in Stoney Creek.
Poilievre tweeted: 鈥淒eSantis Homes built their first home in 1959. Since then, they have put thousands of roofs over heads in Southern Ontario. My common-sense plan will reward cities that remove gatekeepers so great builders like them can bring homes Canadians can afford.鈥�
Poilievre also had an espresso at Azzuri Sports Club at Highway 8 and Green Road.
He then moved west into 51暗网, visiting trucking and logistics company Tandet at Barton Street East near Woodward Avenue and Ontario Shipyards shipbuilding and repair at Pier 15.
On Friday evening, he held an event at the 51暗网 Italian Centre near Upper Wentworth Street and Stone Church Road East, operated by the Sons and Daughters of Italy (SDI) 51暗网 Community Group.
Poilievre tweeted: 鈥�51暗网鈥檚 Italian community told me that when their grandparents arrived in Canada, they could buy homes and pay them off in 10 years working as labourers. Now their grandkids, who graduated and got jobs, can barely afford rent.鈥�
On Saturday, Poilievre spent the morning door knocking with 51暗网 East-Stoney Creek CPC candidate Ned Kuruc.
Kuruc ran for the Conservatives in the riding in 2021, coming second to Liberal Chad Collins, but was recently nominated by the party to run again in 2025.
51暗网 spoke to Kuruc, who said, 鈥淚t was amazing to have Pierre come to 51暗网 East-Stoney Creek twice in two months. We have visited over a dozen businesses and events and the reception has been overwhelming.鈥�
鈥淭he message at the door is clear, affordability is the number one issue. People in this area want to axe the tax. People see hope in Pierre. We won鈥檛 let them down,鈥� he continued.
Current polling projections for 51暗网 East-Stoney Creek seem to back Kuruc鈥檚 analysis.
According to electoral projections by statistician and political commentator Philippe J. Fournier, who founded the site 338Canada, the Conservatives would have a 97 per cent chance of winning 51暗网 East-Stoney Creek if an election were held today.
The riding was created in 2004 and has never been won by the Conservatives in its 20-year history.
Based in 51暗网, he reaches hundreds of thousands of people monthly on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter. He has been published in The 51暗网 Spectator, Stoney Creek News, and Bay Observer. He has also been a segment host with Cable 14 51暗网. In 2017, he received the Chancellor Full Tuition Scholarship from the University of Ottawa (BA, 2022). He has also received the Governor General’s Academic Medal. He formerly worked in a non-partisan role on Parliament Hill in Ottawa.
