When one of your platform planks is to defund the CBC, I wouldn't expect any favors from them. Or even equal and fair representation.

The CBC shouldn’t be picking sides politically. Outside of HNIC I’ve all but boycotted their programming with all the leftist BS they pull. Their radio programming is unlistenable

The ppc is polling at around 2.8 percent. That's why they are Getting so little coverage on the CBC and other networks.

According to these pollsters?
https://mobile.twitter.com/angusreid...527424?lang=en

They didn't know how many candidates they were fielding? And they're conducting polls?? Hmm

If Google and social media analytics is taken into consideration, the ppc often has much more activity than the greens and ndp.
These "polls" are not an accurate representation. Not in my opinion

Between hearing 'Brownface' and 'Climate action strike' all week, my reaction to the news headlines was pretty straightforward

Out of Justin Trudeau’s multiple blunders (groping, SNC, $$$ vacation, etc) during his tenure, blackface is the first time I think he’s shown real remorse. Either way, I hope his time is up.

And scheer has never shown remorse for comparing dogs to gays. The guy still believes all gays and lesbians are going to hell.

What someone believes is different from what someone does. I personally don't give a crap about a candidate's religious beliefs as long as they keep it separate from what they do. If a candidate hates gays, that's fine as long as what they do still reflects the will of the people who elected them. Any religious person is going to believe in some backwards crap, it's how they're brought up and I don't fault them for that.

It's fine to elect someone with ingrained hatred and "backwards beliefs"??

What?

Anyone with automatic hatred (your word) of people for their sexual orientation, gender, race, religion, anything - should be shunned by society and removed from any position of authority. "reflecting the will of people" who share these feelings is the last thing Canada needs.

I want a leader that believes in what he/she is doing. Not someone who believes in one thing but says something else just to get votes then changes his mind when they get elected.

As long as they keep church and state separate, I don't care what their personal beliefs are.

Like I said, I would never elect someone who has ingrained hatred in them.

Not sure what your point is though... Is the person posting those signs a candidate for Prime Minister?

The thought of someone not letting their personal beliefs dictate their actions is fucking absurd.

Every day. I work for a medical research company even though I believe animal testing is wrong. Same goes for defence lawyers, they can believe their client is guilty as fuck but when they're on the job, they better do it to the best of their ability or find another line of work.

Lawyers also believe every person has a right to a fair trial.

I guess you are one of those types of people who will do anything for a buck.

Sure are quick to judge... I may be against animal testing but I know it's necessary and any discoveries benefits the human race.

But you don't believe you are going to hell for what you are doing.

sheer believes homosexuals and people having abortions are going to hell.

stockwell day who was the head of the Canadian alliance party a party scheer was a part of believed man hunted dinosaurs.

scheer has multiple times tried to stop gay marriage and abortions in the house of commons. What's going to stop him from trying again when he is p.m.
