A threat to what? The liberal party? Political parties that run on platforms of lying, misleading, media control, ethic violations? And that Poilievere commercial, learn anything?

Well, this is it. Eighteen months ago, Alberta businessman Rick Peterson started Centre Ice. A project with one goal: to return evidence-based politics to Canada’s federal scene.


Through months of conversation, we learned some valuable lessons:


When you talk to Canadians about our politics, there’s a level of fear and anxiety I’ve never seen before. From housing to healthcare, the war in Europe, the cost of living, the threat from China, the crime crisis… the list of threats is growing all the time. Canadians know those threats are real and feel the insecurity they bring, but they don’t feel the political establishment is paying attention.


When you talk to Canadians about rage-farming –Liberals and Conservatives embracing extreme positions to get more clicks, engagement, and donations through social media – we hear real anger from citizens who want their government to fix problems, not blame others.


We heard that the old parties have abandoned principles for focus groups and policies for algorithms.


That’s how we ended up with Liberals encouraging mass immigration without a plan to house people. It’s how you end up with Conservatives amplifying Republican conspiracies about the World Economic Forum instead of Canadian solutions to Canadian problems.


We heard a desire for something new.


Today, we are trying something new. The voice of the people who support Centre Ice was clear: start a new party.

Unfortunately, history informs us that any party can be a threat to Canada if it tells the right lies and can find a pretty leader with lots of hair.

What about if the current leader is a conservative from Alberta who has a bit of hair and is not Jason Kenney?

Oh wait! What if the new leader was an X NDP who walked the floor and then became an elected Conservative? Huh, huh, huh?

Okay, I understand.
