well it looks like red deer /mtn view does have a PPC candidate. I'm not a big fan of Earl Dreeshen -CPC, need to take a look into the PPC candidate Keely Lorencz and see what he has to say.

My wife & I had an very good chat with our PPC candidate when he him self dropped off our very large sign. Not a seasoned politician by any means, has been involved enough to understand the cartel old boys club mentality that has engulfed our present political system.......that has to change. That won't happen with any of the three that are currently leading. There is not any unreasonable expectation from the PPC's & nor are they a fart in a wool mitt. It is time for fresh eye's & ears.

This kinda like watching wrestling as a kid. They wrestle and at the end of the night they all leave in the same car and go out for supper together.

Maybe they are involved with the Trudeau trust fund.

Holyfack.....

Right, I have explained this minority government scenario to a couple of PPC supporters. Opened their eyes up a bit.
Unfortunately After watching the debate the other night, I find a similarity to the BQ attitude, and the PPC attitude.

I wish I could vote this weekend, I’m working, I will definitely get it done on the 20th regardless of a the lineup.

I didn't realize the Rhinoceros Party was still a thing, seen a candidate on the ballet here today, they have a pretty solid platform, probably should have just voted for them:

If elected, the Rhinoceros Party of Canada has promised to:
  • Repealing the law of gravity[25][26]
  • Providing higher education by building taller schools[17][27]
  • Instituting English, French and illiteracy as Canada's three official languages[17]
  • Tearing down the Rocky Mountains so that Albertans could see the Pacific sunset[26]
  • Eliminating unemployment by abolishing Statistics Canada, thereby eliminating the bureaucrats that measure unemployment.[28]
  • Making Montreal the Venice of North America by damming the St. Lawrence River[29]
  • Abolishing the environment because it's too hard to keep clean and it takes up so much space[17]
  • Annexing the United States, which would take its place as the third territory in Canada's backyard (after the Yukon and the Northwest Territories—Nunavut did not yet exist), in order to eliminate foreign control of Canada's natural resources[30]
  • Ending crime by abolishing all laws[31]
  • To provide more parking in the Maritimes and to create the world's largest parking lot respectively, paving the Bay of Fundy and the province of Manitoba [17][26]
  • Turning Montreal's Saint Catherine Street into the world's longest bowling alley[17]
  • Amending Canada's Freedom of Information Act: "Nothing is free anymore; Canadians should have to pay for their information".[32]
  • Making the Canadian climate more temperate by tapping into the natural resource of hot air in Ottawa.[32]
  • Storing nuclear waste in the Senate: "After all, we've been storing political waste there for years".[32]
  • Adopting the British system of driving on the left; this was to be gradually phased in over five years with large trucks and tractors first, then buses, eventually including small cars, and bicycles and wheelchairs last.[19]
  • Selling the Senate of Canada at an antique auction in California[26][30]
  • Putting the national debt on Visa[33]
  • Declaring war on Belgium because a Belgian cartoon character, Tintin, killed a rhinoceros in one of the cartoons[27][34]
  • Offering to call off the proposed Belgium-Canada war if Belgium delivered a case of mussels and a case of Belgian beer to Rhinoceros "Hindquarters" in Montreal (the Belgian Embassy in Ottawa did, in fact, do this)[27][34]
  • Painting Canada's coastal sea limits in watercolour so that Canadian fish would know where they were at all times[29]
  • Banning guns and butter, since both kill[29]
  • Banning lousy Canadian winters[17]
  • Building a bridge spanning the country, from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland.[35]
  • Making the Trans-Canada Highway one way only.[35]
  • Changing Canada's currency to bubble gum, so it could be inflated or deflated at will.[36]
  • Donating a free rhinoceros to every aspiring artist in Canada[30]
  • Counting the Thousand Islands to see if the Americans have stolen any[15]
  • Knocking down the Rocky Mountains and building giant bicycle paths sloping downhill in both directions, so Canadians could coast from coast to coast.[37]
  • Take Canada off the gold standard, opting instead to use a snow standard to boost the economy[66]
  • Repeal the law of gravity[66]
  • Promote higher education by building taller schools[66]
  • Pave the Bay of Fundy to make more parking for the Maritimes[66]
  • Count the Thousand Islands to make sure the Americans didn’t steal any[66]
  • Change Montreal’s rue Ste-Catherine into the world’s longest bowling alley[66]
  • Ban crappy Canadian winters[66]
  • Abolish all laws to end crime[66]
  • Tear down the Rockies so Albertans can see the Pacific sunset[66]
  • Abolish lawn mowing in Outremont, QC[66]
  • Ban guns and butter—both kill[66]
  • Reform the retail lottery scheme by replacing cash prizes with Senate appointments[66]
  • Forget having two official languages; replace with having two official ears[66] (In French, the same word is used for "language" and for "tongue")
  • Seat the Queen of Canada in Buckingham, Quebec[66]
  • Privatize the Queen[67]
  • Tax the black market[67]
  • Nationalize Tim Hortons[68]
  • Transport oil and gas in blimps instead of pipelines.
