And that's a compliment.<br /><br />Yes, those of us who supported Bernier will be described as bigots by the media/ Left cabal, that can't be helped.

Winning , so you can implement your ideas. It’s fine not to give a shit what people think of you, but in politics you have to.

Canada is by and large a centrist to centre-left country so you go too far to the right you have a limited appeal. It is the Red Tory/Blue Liberals who the Tories need to win over to win in 2019 and Bernier would not be able to do that.<br />2.
