Leadership Race: Climate Change and Quebec Mp

leadership race: It will be a phoney discussion where they attack each other on their superficial differences, according to CTV. The Quebec MP, who represented the Conservatives for a dozen years and placed second in its 2017 leadership race, said the Liberals, NDP, Greens, Bloc Quebecois and his former party all share similar views on things like immigration, climate change and supply management in the dairy sector. It won't be a real debate if I'm not there, Bernier, the leader of the People's Party of Canada, said in his closing speech to his first national convention in Gatineau, Que., on Sunday, where candidates and campaign teams spent three days learning how to attract and motivate voters. He also dismissed those political rivals as espousing varying degrees of left-leaning views. Those other parties have all qualified for the debates, to be held Oct. 7 and Oct. 10, under criteria established by the federal government. While the other parties look at polls and focus groups to decide what they stand for, and pander to every special interest group, we follow our principles, said Bernier, adding that his party does not do any polling.
