In 2017 the rules only required candidates to raise $100,000 and get 300 CPC member’s signatures and they had half a year to do it. By lowering the timeframe to raise money to 10 weeks, tripling the donation goal, and multiplying the signatures goal by 10, there is no way of interpreting the CPC’s new rules as anything but a way of keeping out the grassroots candidates.
The number in favour of reducing current immigration levels has increased from 2018. Two years ago, iPolitics’ Anna Desmarais discussed an Angus Reid poll that asked 1,500 Canadian adults to complete an online survey asking their opinions on immigration. The study found 49% of respondents, marginally less than half, wanted to reduce immigration. Migrant families were especially unpopular amongst those surveyed as they have a lower probability of contributing to Canada’s economy.
The Canadian Conservative Party has failed to gain the working class, rural Quebec and Atlantic Canada voters. Constituents that value old traditional views of Canada and have been neglected by Laurentian elites in Central Canada.
I can already predict some environmentalists are going to stop reading this article after the first paragraph and immediately judge me because they have already figured I do not fit into their belief system. For those who are continuing to read that’s great because it is quite dangerous that someone can be that stuck in a belief system that they would be afraid to read someone else’s point of view because they aren’t fitting into the mold of what the environmentalist movement has become. Afraid to read different views is a sign of an insecure belief system. So good on you for continuing reading even if you disagree with me.
The email also went after Walied for being, as the National Post put it, “a key figure in Patrick Brown’s successful 2015 Ontario PC leadership bid”, which is controversial based on Erin O’Toole running as a “True Blue” Conservative despite having a campaign chair who has worked with well known liberal tories.
In a surprising, though welcome multi-partisan display, 12 Canadian MPs called on the Iraqi Ambassador for a stay on the execution of Khaled Shamo Sarhan, 17. Premised on false accusations, Sarhan, a Yazidi boy, was set for execution on February 28th, 2020, for the killing of Faris Mohammed on August 3rd, 2017, despite being some 300 kilometres from the scene of the crime the day of.
It doesn’t stop there. Rapidly growing companies from the east such as TikTok are also potentially getting in on your data. According to a report from the Guardian, the app is potentially open to using your data for nefarious means due to their connection to the government of China.
In a recent meeting with supporters, Conservative Party leadership hopefuls Leslyn Lewis and Marilyn Gladu discussed the need for Canada to allocate 2% of the national GDP on its armed forces. Both candidates stressed the risk neglecting the military has on protecting Canadian sovereignty. China, Russia, and radical Islam are the three greatest exogenous dangers facing our nation, and a solution to subduing the threats is through bolstering the military.
O’Toole had abstained from the compelled speech bill for gender pronouns, Bill C-16, and has recently declared that he wouldn’t touch the law. He had also voted in favour of an NDP precursor to C-16 in 2011, Bill C-389, and then again split from the Harper CPC parliamentary majority to vote for another version of the same bill, Bill C-279.
The Liberal government according to Derek has been extremely defensive of releasing any information on the gender impact of Bill C-16. Derek said that, “A variety of women’s groups have asked for the GPA, but the entire report, if it even exists at all has been dubbed cabinet competence, and therefore they’re not going to release it.” which only raises more questions on the results or existence of the GBA.
A well written report. Thanks for your effort. It raises awareness.
