@MaximeBernier's Threads
1/ One of the reasons the @peoplespca exists is that over a year ago, I denounced Trudeau’s cult of diversity: the divisive practice of categorizing everyone according to their ethnicity, skin colour, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, etc.
2/ This provoked hysterical reactions. But instead of agreeing with my conservative position and defending me, @AndrewScheer and several Conservative MPs disavowed me. They were afraid.
That’s when I finally decided to leave this intellectually and morally corrupt party.
That’s when I finally decided to leave this intellectually and morally corrupt party.
3/ All the other parties support the cult of diversity.
The PPC is the only party with the courage to push back. The PPC is the only one defending the dignity or each individual and focusing on what unites us as Canadians.

1/8 @GretaThunberg est devenue la mascotte internationale de l’alarmisme climatique.
Le but de la gauche verte est de transformer radicalement notre société en provoquant une peur hystérique de la fin du monde à moins d’abandonner nos libertés et notre mode de vie.

2/ L’objectif est clair. Thunberg: «Nous devons changer presque tout dans notre société actuelle.»
Ils veulent nous rendre plus pauvres et tout restreindre, du logement au transport en passant par l’alimentation, les voyages, ce que nous consommons, et même se reproduire.

3/ Ils se foutent de la démocratie. Nous n’avons plus de temps pour débattre. Tout doute ou opposition doivent être éliminés. Il faut ces changements radicaux MAINTENANT.
Greta est un bouclier pratique. La meute accuse ceux qui la critiquent d’«attaquer une enfant autiste».

1/8 @GretaThunberg has become the international mascot for climate alarmism.
The goal of the green Left is to radically transform our society through hysterical fear that the end of the world is coming and we have no choice but to give up our freedoms and way of life.

2/ Their agenda is clear. Thunberg: “We must change almost everything in our current society.”
They want to make us poorer and restrict everything from housing, transportation, food, travel, and what we consume, to even having babies.

3/ They don’t care about democracy and say there is no time left for debate. Opposition or expression of doubt must be silenced. We must make those radical changes NOW.
They use Greta as a convenient shield. The mob accuse those criticizing her of “bullying an autistic child.”

1/ EC is interpreting a bad law as best it can, but this rule is still absurd. Not because we’re the only party with a different perspective which climate alarmists believe is not legitimate. But because it is arbitrary, draconian, and cannot be applied consistently.
2/ Free speech is a fundamental value for the PPC.
With its changes to the Elections Act, Lib gov has put in place a series of measures that curtail it.
The law should only regulate real partisan advertising, which is when there is mention of a candidate or party by name.

This excessive regulation of free speech has no place in a free society.

1/ People I know nothing about said to belong to Far Right extremist groups take pictures with me.
I have made it clear extremists are NOT welcome in my party.
Media reaction = Two dozen hysterical stories

1/ Another unprofessional and intellectually dishonest CBC “journalist,” @JonGatehouse, claims to have refuted a key part of my speech on immigration by selectively quoting from it and making me say something I did not say.
2/ He writes: Per Bernier, that means "only 26 per cent of all the people who come to Canada every year actually fulfil our economic needs," and that the remainder are "dependents" who "may not master any of our official languages, or are too young or too old to work."
3/ This gives the impression I said that 74% of immigrants – those who are not directly chosen on the basis of their skills and work qualifications, but come as spouses, children, under family reunification, or as refugees – are ALL dependent children or seniors who won’t work.
1/ Diane Francis offers several good arguments against accepting 1M immigrants in the next 3 years, as the Trudeau government is planning to do.
But our leftist elites don’t want a rational discussion. Their only argument is that it’s “racist” to want lower immigration levels.
But our leftist elites don’t want a rational discussion. Their only argument is that it’s “racist” to want lower immigration levels.
2/ Francis: “This 1M — half of whom are family immigrants and not economically free-standing immigrants — is unsustainable. Equivalent to the population of both Ottawa and Edmonton, that’s a lot of health care, educational costs, infrastructure pressure, and housing shortages.”
3/ Francis: “The Liberals claim that the huge increase in immigration is required to fill skills shortages. But nearly half of those admitted won’t be working, perhaps ever, and wouldn’t qualify to be admitted as economic immigrants with skills.”
1/ Plan climat de Scheer:
-confirme qu’il appuie l’alarmisme comme les autres partis
-se vante d’avoir plus de mesures et de meilleures chances d’atteindre les cibles de Paris mais sans donner de chiffres précis.
Comme Trudeau, ce n’est que du SIGNALEMENT DE VERTU HYPOCRITE.

2/ Le plan de Trudeau est taxer-et-rembourser.
Scheer veut TAXER-ET-SUBVENTIONNER.
-900M$/an en crédits pour rénos
-subventions inefficaces aux voitures électriques
-subventions et crédits aux entreprises pour la techno verte alors qu’il y a déjà des dizaines de programmes.

3/ Scheer veut aussi «lutter contre les changements climatiques à l’échelle mondiale».
Comme Trudeau, il veut dépenser des milliards dans d’autres pays.
Conclusion:
Avec Scheer, les Canadiens vont payer pour un autre plan
COÛTEUX,
INEFFICACE,
MONDIALISTE,

1/ Scheer’s climate plan:
-confirms he is committed to climate alarmism like all other parties
-brags he has more measures and better chance of reaching Paris targets than other parties, and yet has no specific number.
Like Trudeau, it’s just HYPOCRITICAL VIRTUE-SIGNALLING.

2/ Trudeau’s plan is tax-and-rebate.
Scheer’s plan is TAX-AND-SUBSIDIZE.
-$900M/y boutique tax credit for home reno
-inefficient subsidies for electric cars
-subsidies and tax credits for businesses developing green tech when there are dozens of programs already doing this.

3/ Scheer also wants to “take the climate change fight global.”
Like Trudeau, he wants to spend billions in other countries.

1/ “Globally there’s no clear evidence of trends and patterns in extreme events such as droughts, hurricanes and floods. Some regions experience more, some less and some no trend. Limitations of data and inconsistencies in patterns prevent confident claims one way or another.”
2/ “The continual claim of such a link is misinformation employed for political and rhetorical purposes. Powerful people get away with it because so few people know what the numbers show. Many scientists who know better remain silent.”
3/ “And the few who push back against the propaganda, such as Roger Pielke Jr., find themselves on the receiving end of abuse and career-threatening attacks, even though they have all the science in their corner.
Something has gotten scary and extreme, but it isn’t the weather.”

1/ We learn today there are over 20 cases of late abortion in Qc even though the mother and baby are in good health.
Doctors in the province don’t want to do them for ethical reasons, so the government pays for the mother to get the abortion in the US.

2/ Because of the legal void in Canada, you are allowed to get an abortion until the last trimester even without any reasonable motive.
My personal view is that at this stage, when the baby is fully developed and viable, this amounts to infanticide.

3/ The PPC will not have any official position on this issue.
But when journalists asked me about it last week in Quebec and I said I would allow any MP to present a private member’s bill and have a debate, I was attacked by all the talking heads in the province.

1/ On apprend qu’il y a une vingtaine de cas par année d’avortements tardifs au Québec où la mère et le bébé sont pourtant en bonne santé.
Les médecins d’ici ne veulent pas les faire pour des raisons éthiques. Le gouv paie donc pour envoyer la mère se faire avorter aux É-U.

2/ À cause du vide juridique au Canada, il est permis de se faire avorter jusqu’au dernier trimestre même sans motif raisonnable.
Personnellement, je considère qu’il s’agit d’infanticide à ce stade, alors que le bébé est complètement développé et viable.

3/ Le PPC n’aura aucune position officielle sur cette question.
Mais quand j’ai répondu la semaine dernière à des journalistes que j’allais le permettre si un député présente un projet de loi privé et veut faire le débat, tous les commentateurs bien-pensants du Q m’ont attaqué.

Are we masochistic or what?
“Ads tell women that going to Canada for automatic citizenship is a “gift” for their babies since their children will be able to get free education, cheap university tuition and student loans.”

“Ads tell women that going to Canada for automatic citizenship is a “gift” for their babies since their children will be able to get free education, cheap university tuition and student loans.”

“The ads are being run by brokers offering “one-stop shopping” for women, with offers to put together packages including transportation, housing, meals, contracts, pre- and postnatal medical appointments, shopping and checking in at hospitals.”
Some of the ads tell women their offspring can sponsor their parents under family reunification: “You want to retire in Canada, but you don’t meet the requirements? You can give birth to your child in Canada. When your child turns 18, your child can apply for the parents.”
1/ She has no respect for Canadians. She keeps acting like an entitled princess who cannot tolerate the slightest criticism.
And her leader seems unable to keep this shameful attitude in check.
We are public servants. Canadians have a right to see our public communications.

2/ Our by-election candidates were explicitly told to NOT block anyone. And I am giving all the new candidates, as well as our official EDAs, the same directive.
You can use the Mask function for trolls and others who harass you. But don’t block anyone.

1/ I’ve been denouncing left-wing activists masquerading as “journalists” who write hit pieces about PPC.
Here we have a SJW masquerading as a “conservative” MP using one of those hit pieces to virtue signal, as a Liberal would.
How’s your friend Morgane, @MichelleRempel?

2/ For those who want to hear another side to the story above about a PPC nomination contestant who was presumably expelled “for being gay,” watch this video.
Now waiting for the @LFPress to run another article about their fake news.

3/ Let me be very clear on this.
PPC has several candidates, EDA execs and staff who are gay.
We welcome them not because we have a gay quota to fill, but because they share our principles and policies.
Their sexuality, just like their gender or ethnicity, is IRRELEVANT.

1/ Pas surprenant que tant de gens ne veuillent pas d’enfants, soient anxieux et pessimistes. Et qu’il y ait un sentiment de malaise généralisé.
Médias et politiciens inventent constamment de nouvelles crises pour justifier plus de contrôle de l’État, lois, règlements et taxes.

2/ Tous les 6 mois il faut se conformer à de nouvelles normes linguistiques, culturelles et sociales imposées par la gauche radicale.
Au lieu de débats rationnels, on nous dit que tout fout le camp et que le monde va bientôt disparaître à moins de transformer notre mode de vie.

3/ Nous devons revenir aux fondamentaux.
Arrêter de compliquer davantage nos vies avec les dernières lubies gauchistes.
Plus de stabilité et de sécurité.
Et faire confiance aux GENS LIBRES ET RESPONSABLES pour gérer leur vie, et non aux élites alarmistes et contrôlantes.

3/ We need to refocus on the fundamentals.
Stop further complicating our lives with the latest Leftist fads.

And we should trust FREE and RESPONSIBLE PEOPLE to run their lives, not the alarmist and controlling elites.

Absolument d’accord.

1/ Il y a un massacre quelque part dans le monde chaque semaine.

1/ Le gouv libéral est obsédé par la protection des emplois chez SNC-Lavalin.

2/ Ils étaient manifestement disposés à aller très loin, y compris à entraver potentiellement la justice, pour protéger l'entreprise.
Pourquoi? Parce que les libéraux ont besoin de plus de sièges au Québec pour rester au pouvoir.

2/ They were clearly willing to go to great lengths, including potentially obstructing justice, to protect the company.
