A Liberal-appointed commissioner has blocked Maxime Bernier from participating in the federal leadership debates.
Maxime Bernier is the leader and sole MP for the People's Party of Canada. With the next federal election scheduled for October 21, the governing Liberals prepared by creating something called the Federal Leaders' Debate Commissioner. Inclusion in the debates is now under the control of former Governor General David Johnston.
You may have watched Ezra's coverage of these new rules which seem above all to be written to protect Trudeau from criticism. While Bernier is out, Elizabeth May is in, even though the Green Party has only 2 MPs. Since May will attack Conservative leader Andrew Scheer, not Trudeau, it's good to have her on board.
And the whole situation is unfolding quite differently than Minister for Democratic Institutions Karina Gould assumed they would when these new rules were first legislated last year.
He confuses and conflates anti Islamist and anti Muslim. In a free nation we must be allowed to speak out against an ideology, especially a theocratic ideology.
In Andrew Scheers own words sitting across the table at a meeting with high profile Political Islamists now residing in Canada…..

I would like Bernier to be able to bring this up in the debates, in order to illicit a response from all of the leaders so that Canadians might understand how much or how little they actually understand about Islam, and the Islamists they are defending and how little they understand about secular, cultural, and ex Muslims who they throw under the bus along with the rest of us. This is awfully exclusionary for such a supposedly inclusive nation. Canadians deserve better.
No one will watch more than 5 minutes of it. Canadians deserve to hear some DIVERSITY of opinion in the upcoming debates.

✅PM office, Trudeau, Scheer, May
✅Lib, Con, NDP, and Green party accounts
✅Lots of Lib mins: Freeland, Gould, Morneau, Goodale, McKenna, Bains, Sajjan, Duncan, Garneau, etc.
✅Gerald Butts!!!
❌Me and PPC

No wonder the PPC isn’t even on the radar for Johnston, the Leaders Debates Commissioner. Look where he gets his info from. Is he even trying to inform himself so that he is able to make a fair and informed decision?
Over 40,000 memberships, not fringe, growing popularity, often not even included in phone surveys so how can they show in the polls?
One way or the other the PPC won’t be ignored.
This process sounds suspiciously like the CPC leadership election fix.
More elitist gerrymandering.
Now I know why Junior couldn’t walk a straight line yesterday, he knew the hammer was coming down.
-———————-Is that the hammer that John Wick was yapping bout? He got hammered because of the hammer coming down. He’ll give Sir John A a run for his money.

12,000 so far says Max, and counting. We could make the support impossible to ignore. The outrage needs to drown out the debates themselves if Max is excluded. Send a message. #LetMaxSpeak

This corruption is madness.
It might be something to consider. It is definitely time to think big.
ROTFFLMAO
Trudeau is a goof and Scheer is just so damn boring. Not good TV.
Of course barring Bernier is undemocratic but isn’t that the a good talking point.The more the Liberals look like tyrants ,the better it is for us.
Of course we’d have to recall the last PM to steward our country through the turmoil and cleansing, and until we could have another, legitimate election…
The only reason I’m even considering a vote for the PPC is based entirely on what Max has been saying, well that and all the PPC candidates…the Conservatives will not get my vote under Smilin’ Andy and their far left of center policies…cause and effect.
The problem is, I’ve been participating in the democratic process in Canada since the early 70’s…and that’s all I’ve ever heard, really…is a lot of talk.
Some kind of big change is needed…
Regardless, the elites should be taken to task for keeping Max out, whether it helps get them to reconsider or not. They should know how we feel. Please consider signing Max’s petition.

Short, sweet, relaxed and to the point.
Jan, I must admit I am surprised that we are being allowed to hear anything about the SNC LAVALIN / Trudeau, Butts, Werner scandal again before the election.
I bet those backroom boys are ticked.
have a reada:

trudeau PRETENDS to be worried -just as he was “worried” a while back about Venezuela HOWEVER the fact remains THIS IS HIS PLAN FOR CANADA AND WE CANADIANS!! FACT!!!
on another note, have a read (not that the mainstream will cover this nor will it affect the upcoming trudeau re-election:

If the people hear Max speak it will be over for both the Libs and the Scheer Cons.
-————-Durward Saar, exactly right!
If you’re on twitter tell Johnston how you feel. If not just enjoy the other tweets questioning the decision to exclude Max.

There are things in the works, don’t lose faith.
