the chasing of left wing voters with liberal policies by the CPC is too much of a risk.

They shift left to cater to the centrists, and they leave the right right-wing fringes behind, who then vote PPC.
They shift right to re-capture the right-wingers and they leave their moderate centrists behind, who then vote LPC.

It's a no-win scenario for the Conservatives when there's another right-wing party out there splitting the vote. History has shown this. Canada is a 65-70% left wing country, with the left-wing vote spread over a couple of parties. The only reason conservatives ever get to govern is because there's only one conservative party, consolidating that whole 30-35%, which is sometimes enough to defeat the highest polling left-wing party. Introduce another right-wing party, even one that just polls at a few percent, and that's it. Liberal rule forever.

And Benrier knows this. He knows he's never going to win a seat, and that he's condemning this country to perpetual Trudeau rule. He just doesn't care He's getting paid and that's all that matters.

And PPCtards call themselves "patriots". Amazing.
