Anaida Poilievre says she's writing a book in Montreal
After dedicating a chunk of her summer to a rural Alberta byelection campaign to get Conservative Party of Canada Leader and husband Pierre Poilievre back in the House of Commons, Anaida Poilievre is poised to spend a month in Montreal writing a book. Poilievre, editor in chief and frequent contributor to the Pretty and Smart Co. lifestyle platform she founded, revealed her intention to take her authorship to the next level in a Facebook post about accommodations in the city's Griffintown neighbourhood. In the late July message in Nous sommes des citoyens du Griffintown (We are citizens of Griffintown), Poilievre said she was in search of a short-term, furnished rental with a gym and swimming pool.

'A little getaway while I write a book,' she wrote. 'I will be coming in and out and at times bring my two kids for a weekend with me, etc. But it's mainly just me parked at a desk writing all day.' Poilievre said she'd had 'no luck' because many buildings in the area have bylaws that explicitly prohibit short-term rentals, such as Airbnb or Vrbo. Earlier this year, Montreal restricted such rentals to operating solely in the summer months , except for a small zone. The former political staffer and mother of two didn't say what the book was about, but later replied to the post that 'It's full of hope and positivity, and I think you'll love it. 'After all, kindness doesn't cost much.' National Post has contacted Poilievre for comment and to learn more about the forthcoming book. Under her bio at Pretty and Smart, it describes her as the 'author of Strong Pillars: Building an Unshakable Foundation (coming soon).' Monday night, the Poilievres were in Camrose, Alta., celebrating Pierre's byelection win in a safe Conservative seat vacated by Damien Kurek, who stepped down to make way for the party leader. Across her social media channels, Poilievre shared a 'We're back' message along with a collage of photos featuring kids Cruz, 3, and Valentina, 4, and one of her and Pierre. In her note, she addressed the 'up and down' nature of political life and the sacrifices it takes. She also talked about the 'ugly side.' 'Friendships come and go as if dictated by the polls,' Poilievre stated. 'Just like the weather, people come and go. So remember, family is everything and fighting for hope is still worth it all.' We're back. 🫶🏻💙 Poilievre, who immigrated to Canada from Venezuela with her family in 1995, obtained a bachelor of arts in communication from the University of Ottawa. At 19, she began working as a parliamentary affairs adviser for Senator Claud Carignan, during which time she met her would-be husband. In 2015, she began working for Alberta MP Michael Cooper, but resigned after the 2022 leadership convention.
