Another political campaign misses the mark! (1.Viewing)

Looks like Pierre Poilievre’s campaign failed to register an important domain when they decided to use Pierre4PM.ca. On the same day Pierre4PM.ca was registered, someone scooped up PierreForPM.ca. It now forwards to an old article from the CBC from 2008:

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/cons...urtful-comments-on-aboriginal-people-1.712106

You would think the campaign manager or whoever does the domain registration would see that “4” and “for” could be easily mistyped into any browser.

I do not own the domain nor do I know who owns it but I think a for sale lander would be better. Unless the owner is not looking to sell it.

Nice find!

The "for" COM also goes to the same CBC article.

Best part is, I think, is that their actual logo on the site uses "for" in it

This is the order the domains were registered:

pierreforpm.ca registered 2022-02-01T16:00:49Z

pierre4pm.ca registered 2022-02-01T18:34:24Z

poilievre.ca registered 2022-03-16T19:00:00Z

So the first two were registered 2.5 hours apart, with the "ForPM" going first. Interesting....
