Spent a few hours going thru PPC`s platforms and I can see now why the other parties do not want him in any debates.
Hopefully Rebel Media will be doing interviews to let Canadians see a way out of Trudeaus ruining of Canada.

Billboard- "Say No to Mass Immigration"

It was decided that it was 'racist', and that billboard has to come down. When a political party is no longer allowed to express their views , it is clear to see just how far things have gone by being censored by the thought police nanny state.

I wanted a change last election, so I voted Liberal...I regret that decision. ( I apologise to my fellow Canadians). I had no idea my country was going to be just given away. I had no idea that people in other countries were more important to the Liberals than their own citizens.

I was going to give my vote to Elizabeth this coming election, but after what happened to the Peoples Party's opinion being silenced like that- I have no choice but to vote for them now...just out of principle. They don't seem to have any policies on the environment-which is disappointing, but it may not matter in the big scheme of things for now if we are going to lose our country anyway.
It may already be too late.
Too late? ...when a political party can't advertise or voice their position on national issues anymore without being silenced- it's then too late. Maybe I had forgotten the sacrifices and sweat it took to build this country when I voted the way I did- and I don't deserve Canada. Or...maybe the true agenda was withheld from us from the start.

The billboard wasn't racist...at all. It is a opinion on immigration-that's it.
The censorship is crystal clear,...as is my vote.

I voted Green last time, but this time around it will be PPC for the same reason as you, out of principle over censorship of free speech. Personally, I'm not really even a fan of the billboard, but taking it down because of hurt feelings during an election year makes me kinda warm up to the slogan.

This billboard censorship opens a can of worms so big it has yet to reveal itself completely.

The billboard 'company' received some complaints, so they decide what is right and wrong, what is politically correct or not.

I've used that billboard 'company' before a number of times in and out of this area for billboard advertising rental for sometimes things that could be considered questionable, but they never refused the advertising we were doing. At $1700-$2000 month they would rather take the money.

Billboard advertising is still the(almost) most effective way to bring a message to people- even in this day of social media. If it is going to be censored by the company that owns the billboard because of opposing political opinions...slippery slope.

[oldtrucker]

The PPC is at just under 3 % in the polls. It will be interesting to see if other people are going to switch their vote to the PPC just because of this billboard censorship.
This whole billboard issue could prove to be a good thing for the PPC, and they could end up with 6% by the end of the week.

I think they should stay up, aren't the billboards heading to Falkland from Swan Lake (ProLife) still there? Kinda politicized subject.

[RustyCrayon]

Taking the PPC billboard down was censorship...pure & simple. We are heading into a very dangerous direction when it comes to freedom of speech and what we can and/or can no longer say, because someone who disagrees might have their feelings hurt. Whether we agree or not with any of the candidates platforms, we should be allowed to decide for ourselves. But that's difficult to do when some of them are being censored.

Maxime Bernier is not anti immigration or racist...as the media would like everyone to believe.

The PPC platform regarding immigration: Reducing Overall Levels and Prioritizing Skilled Immigrants

https://www.peoplespartyofcanada.ca/immigration_reducing_overall_levels_and_prioritizing_skilled_immigrants

Issue

The primary aim of Canada’s immigration policy should be to economically benefit Canadians and Canada as a whole. It should not be used to forcibly change the cultural character and social fabric of our country. And it should not put excessive financial burdens on the shoulders of Canadians in the pursuit of humanitarian goals.

Despite Canada already accepting more immigrants than almost any other country, both the Liberals and Conservatives support an unsustainable increase in the annual immigration intake, and are using mass immigration as a political tool to buy votes among immigrant communities.


Facts

Right now, only 26% of all the immigrants and refugees who come to Canada every year are directly chosen because they have the right qualifications and work experience to fulfill our economic needs. The rest are dependents (spouses and children), come through the family reunification program or as refugees, do not work, or do not have the skills that we need even if they find work.

Immigrants generally have lower wages than non-immigrants. They pay on average about half as much in income taxes as other Canadians but absorb nearly the same value of government services. A study puts the cost to taxpayers in 2014 at roughly $5,300 per immigrant living in Canada, for a total annual cost of somewhere between $27 billion and $35 billion.

Demographic studies have shown that newcomers are a bit younger on average than Canadians, but not enough to have a noticeable impact on the rate of aging. The Liberal government has made matters worse by increasing the number of parents and grand-parents accepted under the family reunification program.

Mass immigration also inflates housing prices. More than 41% of all immigrants to Canada settle in and around Toronto and Vancouver, which have some of the least affordable housing among big cities in the world.
Our Plan

Our immigration policy can benefit Canadians only if we welcome the right kind of immigrants. It should prioritize Canada’s economic interests and be calibrated in a way that does not jeopardize Canadian values and the maintenance of our national identity.

A People’s Party government will:

• Substantially lower the total number of immigrants and refugees Canada accept every year, from 350,000 to between 100,000 and 150,000, depending on economic and other circumstances.

• Reform the immigration point system and the related programs to accept a larger proportion of economic immigrants with the right skills.

• Accept fewer resettled refugees (see Refugees policy) and limit the number of immigrants accepted under the family reunification program, including abolishing the program for parents and grand-parents.

• Limit the number of temporary foreign workers and make sure that they fulfil temporary positions and do not compete unfairly with Canadian workers.

• Change the law to make birth tourism illegal.

• Ensure that every candidate for immigration undergoes a face-to-face interview and answers a series of specific questions to assess the extent to which they align with Canadian values and societal norms (see Canadian Identity policy).

• Increase resources for CSIS, the RCMP and Canadian Immigration and Citizenship to do interviews and thorough background checks on all classes of immigrants.

Amazing that a humble grass roots party like the PPC has come under such intense critisism and now outright censorship. Bernier ought to have been the leader of the Conservative party. However some funny business went on making Scheer party leader. So here we are today. 4 main parties all way left of centre. Vs Bernier and the PPC.

I will vote PPC unless it is close and the Western votes actually count for something. In that scenario i will vote Conservative to save Canada from 4 more years of race baiting . 4 more years of say lots do nothing. 4 more years of legal weed being more illegal than illegal weed ever was. 4 more years of budgets in the toilet. 4 more years of pride parades. .. we could be so much stronger as a nation if we worked on the 99 percent of stuff we all agree on. Focusing on Trudeau division we all end up fighting with each other.

Thanks for the link featfan.

Took me about 3 min of reading to decide that PPC will have my vote.
