Default Bernier and Scheer...neck and neck

Turning into a real nail biter. Hoping Bernier can pull it off

Thumbs up Maxime Bernier

To take out the Liberals, we need the 'Alberta Quebecer' !

Libs are already going after Scheer for being social conservative. Trudeau will get in for a second term if Scheer slips in.

They're going after Bernier for being a "radical" libertarian, but that will play better with a lot of people than getting trapped up in abortion and gay marriage discussions.

Quite surprised, hopefully he can make it work. I think by the time we go to the polls, the world will realise that Trump is not as bad as the clinton funded press would have us believe and a Conservative government just might save the country from further travel down the drain. I backed Lemieux with money and vote, oh well.

I believe Rick Bell says it perfectly .

You have to appreciate that most Canadians do not possess the genius
Of AO board members nor the ability to decipher eastern Canadian idiocy.
I thought Harper was the best PM in my lifetime , so if this guys a little
Stevish ( Stephish) I m ok with that . I wouldn't worry about his social
leanings , not here in western Gomorah , where we just outlawed prayer
in three northern schools , shame I say .

Default There is a bright side.

First he is an RC same as JT so there is no advantage one way or the other. Speaks both languages well, and maybe best of all has a chance to appeal to young and new voters in the East. He already has all the voters here, so to grow he needs to appeal to new voters, youth and immigrants.

I don't see any reason why he can't be successful. In spite of what Rick Bell wrote, he doesn't need to appeal to bed rock conservatives he has to appeal to the new voters.

He doesn't seem to be bring any baggage with him either and that is a plus.

In the past, and I go back farther than most, the problem on the right has been internecine rivalries. Alberta being a case in point. If the Feds avoid that they may surprise their doubters.

As far as the government of JT is concerned, they have many advantages in an election, so over confidence must be avoided.

What did Rick Bell say? Probably the worst editorial I've read in a long time.
