  1. The only chance the Conservatives have is someone like Michael Chong. Many Canadians would not be able to stomach someone like Poilievre.

  2. You're talking about areas with million dollar homes (Greely, Manotick) and other suburban areas (Metcalfe, Stittsville) where most of the people work in Ottawa and live further out because it's cheaper and they have families. And while it doesn't include Barrhaven it does have Riverside South, which is growing like a weed. Yeah, there's still some farmers further south and east, but it's a wide mix of people. Sorry if not everyone is a hip, young downtown, multi-ethnic singleton since you seem to believe these are the only reasonable and intelligent people out there. And probably there IS a greater percentage downtown that are non-white. That's GOOD, right?! The less whites the better! Because they vote for bigger government to take care of all their problems? Because unlike other folks they can't imagine having a sense of personal responsibility and turn to 'mommy' to solve every problem? Because masses of them pay no income tax anyway, so will always prefer the party that offers the most 'free' goodies?

  3. And they are on welfare. Let's not forget that. The Syrians, like other refugees, have no job skills to speak of, and little or no language skills. What jobs they can get are for largely for unskilled labour. This is not a reflection on who they are as people, but merely the reality of transferring a largely rural folk from a third world country to another land with a vastly different culture and language and with an economy driven by technology and communications. Here is a report from Macleans. Only 25% of them are employed. And for the government sponsored refugees it's a mere 5%. Less than half the Syrian refugees have a high school diploma. https://www.macleans.ca/news/canada/how-syrian-refugees-to-canada-have-fared-since-2015/ We would be far better off using the money to take care of them back in Turkey than bringing them to Canada. It costs ten times more to fund a refugee in the West than it does back where they come from.

  4. Wow. You have talked me into it. I'm running for Parliament. Why haven't you, Doug? You make it sound great. As for gold plated pensions, don't you get a pension after all those years in the Forces? McKay stabbed the Progressive Conservative Party in the back. He would continue to alienate the Red Tories. Who could trust him? The CPC will have to come up with a realistic policy to fight climate change that is better than the other parties. The Party will have to attract people from the right wing of the Liberal Party. It will have to attract Quebec Nationalists. The Leader will have to be an eminent person of integrity, vision and courage. Once elected, the Party will have to sustain all of this.

  5. Supply chain economics in Canada has been protecting small farmers since Canada started in 1867. It is as much a part of the fabric of Canadian politics as is medicare and gun control. These 3 things plus strong regulation of banks which Americans call communist tendencies Canadians of all political parties embrace. Its a non partisan issue. We won't allow Americans to dump cheap milk in Canada, put out of business are dairy farmers, then yank up the prices once they have destroyed our milk producers and have no competition. We protect our farmers no differently than the US does its own. The US engages in the very same predatory pricing tactics as China when it comes to dumping or what I call Walmart Cancer Marketing,

  6. I think he is strongly identified with the previous Progressive Conservative Party and so to pick him now, might alienate the former Reformist wing and cause a schism. Me personally I think he would be a good candidate. I think he could sell himself across Canada very well and has the qualities Sheer does not. Marcus mentioned Michael Chong. He is another middle of the road or progressive Tory but I am not sure he would carry nationally and I never did understand why he did not do better in Toronto. He was a pretty middle of the road inoffensive politician but voters tuned him out. I really do not know why.

  8. No i'm not pretending anything, jacee, it's fact that the left is more racist than the right...atleast if we were going to judge that by facts, liberals fired 6 candidates for racist and homophobic remarks, Maybe these guys tried out for the PPC but they said nope....or maybe the left are hacks, and divert attention by accusing everyone else..... Erik Schomann (Simcoe North) over a social-media post that talked about sending pig meat to Muslims.(green party) ept. 11: Dock Currie (Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo) over online comments. NDP Olivier Mathieu (LaSalle–Emard–Verdun) over domestic abuse allegations.NDP A Liberal candidate has resigned after criticising a woman who said her husband had raped her, saying the husband was the "real victim". A spokesman for the Victorian Division of the Liberal Party said Scullin candidate Gurpal Singh was asked to step down after a series of offensive Facebook posts were made public. Mr Singh is the seventh Victorian Liberal candidate to be disendorsed by the party this federal election. Mr Singh had previously linked same-sex marriage with paedophilia. there is a lot more this is what I found in 5 min.....and those are not counting all those released for other reasons.....other than being racist...OH for the record there has only been 2 PPC candidates asked to step down...for racist remarks, or other activities ….

  9. Ok so you know that Richmond, Munster, Goulbourn, Kars, North Gower, Greely, Metcalfe even Manotick have a lot of old white conservative Lowell Green-listening spunkers like yourself living there, even Stittsville, though it's growing a lot with new houses, same with Manotick. And a lot of rural types live in these places who like living outside the dense burbs of Barrhaven and Kanata. The riding doesn't even include Barrhaven anymore as it did before 2015 under Nepean-Carleton. Much of the rest of the riding is straight-up rural farmers. The rest of Ottawa closer to the core and denser suburbs vote Liberal and sometimes NDP for a reason.

  11. Go look at the border of the riding and tell me it's not rural. He's a POS. It's a strong conservative riding, he's won every election since Harper got in. They could put a retarded zebra as CPC rep in that riding and they'd win.

  12. I never forgave Scheer for selling out to the socialist milk cartel from Quebec, that was the last straw for me, same as Bernier.

  14. As the article(and the rest of world) say, center is american. Centre is British. Where you go the idea of French is beyond me. I know it's legal here but lay of it, stuff rots your brain.

  15. Keep our rights endowed by the Creator. Abolish Commie Canada. The position of Canada is not a requirement so no tyrannical nanny state is needed. Just follow the American constitution and have the freedom from speech banning, gun grabbing and thought policing.

  16. Are you really trying to pretend that the PPC - with their openly white supremacist 'security' thugs - are not racist? Why pretend?
