The Illusion of Consensus Jailed Political Dissident Maxime Bernier On Canada's Economic and Immigration Disaster
In this new podcast, I interview Maxime Bernier, leader of the People's Party of Canada, discussing key issues in the upcoming federal Canadian election (April 28). Max was arrested in 2021 for attending an anti-authoritarian rally in Manitoba in 2021. He has been an ardent defender of civil liberties and free speech throughout the pandemic.
We delve into economic policies, taxation, trade wars, government spending, immigration, and the party's vision for Canada in our conversation. Bernier emphasizes the need for fiscal responsibility, a reduction in mass immigration, and a focus on Canadian values and individual freedoms. Bernier argues for a clearer Canadian identity that promotes unity over diversity, while still valuing the contributions of various cultures.
Bernier explains here why the Conservative party of Canada is weak, unprincipled, and ultimately powerless in undermining the Liberal Party.
