Scheer: It’s up to Liberals if Bernier should be at debates

Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer was noncommittal when asked if Maxime Bernier should be allowed to participate in debates organized by the Leaders' Debates Commission, after a report alleging a former neo-Nazi was among the People's Party of Canada signatories.

Scheer says it's "up to the Liberal government to explain the criteria" because they "established the debate commission."

    1. Craig Hossack …..nice try with the scare tactic. The true vote split are the ones that vote for what they don’t want instead of voting for what they want. I don’t want liberal and I don’t want liberal lite in the cpc. I’m voting for the PPC……Canada to the Max! ™

  1. Just another politician who won’t answer a direct question. Ask Mr. Bernier a question. Experience the difference. Vote PPC.

    1. @Mac From a casual observer point of view it seems that way and you can be forgiven for thinking so, but if you look closer at Scheers policy, his parties pandering and outreach to non traditional base, you will notice that the Conservative party of Canada has shifted to the center left and is not a right wing party.

  2. Well Sheer; your immigration policy, I mean the Liberals immigration policy that you back, is hatred towards real Canadians and as such, maybe you shouldn’t be at the debates yourself.

    1. Lol look at every online discussion Max and PPC name is everywhere. New tactics is call the party haters or racists, NPCs all the way.

  3. He’s right. It’s not up to Sheer. The Trudeau regime set the criteria and it’s their mess to deal with as to what will happen with Bernier and the debates.
    Just another reason to say NO TO TRUDEAU.

    1. Allen Crawford ….you are correct, but did you notice that he didn’t say I encourage the liberals to let the PPC leader into the debates.
      Scheer the steer, did not have intestinal fortitude to say …..let Maxime speak……..he’s knows that will hurt him and the cpc. Coward!

  4. Need to change the names of these networks to propaganda channels or NPC channels. When was the last time they actually reported the news?

    1. @Mac Seriously though, I can’t vote for Scheer knowing that he relied on fake conservatives from Quebec to win the leadership. It shows how devious and unprincipled he (Scheer) is. If Scheer wins, he will disappoint his base, I have no doubt.

    2. @Mac I think Scheer proved that he’s power hungry through his actions in securing the leadership. Max only left the CPC after Scheer would not defend Max about his tweets on the dangers of extreme multiculturalism. Sorry, but the CPC is corrupt.

  5. PPC has my vote 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
