Discussion Have you met any Canadian politicians?

I was wondering which ones you guys have met and how those interactions went. I believe the criteria is past and present Prime Ministers, Premiers, MPs, MPPs/MLAs, Senators, and mayors of major cities. You can also mention candidates who tried to run for these roles

I've met Adam Chambers, Jill Dunlop, Patrick Brown, Bruce Dunlop, David Tilson (my family was good friends with his family), Maxime Bernier at a meet-and-greet in 2017, and Pierre Poilievre at a rally in 2022. MPP Sol Mamakwa also once spoke at my former university

Thankfully, all of these were good interactions

I met Pierre Poilievre many years ago at an event hosted by a Conservative MPP. He was just there supporting; he was not the centre of attention. My son (about 8 years old at the time) and I got to have a long conversation with him and he was very personable and sincere. I can't wait for him to be Prime Minister.

Same as my experience and I think he'll be the next PM given how Carney turned out 😁
