Rick Peterson: Bernier and Michael Chong

rick peterson: Bernier said the policy, which heavily subsidizes farmers, reduces competition and results in higher prices for Canadian consumers, according to CTV. He also said that language skills were paramount. Maxime Bernier, arguing on his home turf in his mother tongue of French, proved to be the target of most of his rivals especially over his pledges to abolish supply management. The only way to beat Justin Trudeau in 2019 will be to have a leader who is able to express himself fluently in our two official languages, said Bernier. Michael Chong argued that the party needs to regain the support of immigrant communities, a position that was echoed by Rick Peterson. Steven Blaney, the other Conservative candidate from Quebec, argued that First Nations reserves should be restructured, saying the isolation of rural communities has enabled drug and alcohol abuse.
