    Does the CPC have any intentions of making policy and doing something for Canadians? We have a housing crisis, crazy inflation, and climate change that should be areas of focus for any government, but they want to get off attacking trans people. He is not a leader, he is a snake oil salesman and 30% of the country is too brainwashed to act and think like human beings.

      He IS doing something about the terrifying future threatening Canadians: he’s doing fascism. His base doesn’t want nuanced policy that address root causes. They want a simple scapegoat that they can unburden their fear onto in the form of hatred. That is what PP is providing.

      I guess not. I just went to their site out of curiosity. I couldn’t find any policy statements. Just a vague mission statement type thing.

      Update: they have a policy document from 2021 under their ‘governing documents’ heading on the website. The document doesn’t address this issue at all.

        I remember when parties had their platforms in a book that they would make before every election. Now some parties don’t even bother having a platform and win elections. People are voting for representatives that not only don’t care about representing them, but in some cases straight up have comptent for their constituents.
