and then there were 5 in the CPC leadership race!

Patrick Brown - current mayor of Brampton since 2018; former leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario; Ontario's Leader of the Official Opposition from 2015 to 2018, joins the race already populated by:
- former federal Progressive Conservative leader; former Quebec Premier, Jean Charest
- Ontario CPC MP, Pierre Poilievre
- Ontario CPC MP, Leslyn Lewis
- Ontario Independent MPP, Roman Baber

joining the CPC leadership race... now making it 7 candidates:

- Saskatchewan businessman & founder of 'Canadians for Truth', Joseph Bourgault
- former MP for Parry Sound—Muskoka Ontario; former mayor of Huntsville Ontario, Scott Aitchison

Too bad Tommy Chong said no.
Patrick Brown is the best hope for a non insane parliament.

certainly the waldo has been very critical of CPC MP Michelle Rempel (aka the member from Oklahoma, Buffalo Gal)... but more recently Rempel seems to be working to "refine" her positioning and perceived image - most notably of late actually skewering those Conservatives with conspiracy designs against the World Economic Forum, although she never directly mentions Poilievre by name. In any case, the waldo was not anticipating this move by CPC leadership candidate Patrick Brown in announcing Rempel as his campaign's co-chair:

That's some good Western representation by PB. Great strategic move.

How can Westerners, in good conscience, vote for a guy name Pierre.

Not the right color.
That’s what I was thinking too.  They’re not the right colour and aren’t big fans of socialism/communism.  So not Liberal voters.

guys, guys... lil' leadership campaign stop here; has Skippy found the/your right colour?

She was never the cartoon job you've done of her.  She's one of the few in the party who've publicly challenged the Brad Trost, Derek Sloan wing of the party for their dinosaur politics. She's solidly in the "red Tory" mold, and it makes sense that she'd align against Pierre Poillievre.

Some people think that Jean Charest would be the choice of the "PC" wing of the CPC, but I just can't see it. His event in Vancouver didn't even draw as many people as my last Blonde Lives Matter teach-in, which was basically just me talking to my cat.  Charest couldn't even get any cats to come to his event. Just a empty chairs and somebody who took pictures of empty chairs.

The CBC should be 100% ideologically and politically neutral in content or abolished.  Just the facts, yo.  Those are the only 2 democratic options available (that I can think of).  If you disagree with me you probably have a political motive.  If you'll notice, most people who do disagree are on one side of the ideological spectrum.

I see no real reason to have a state broadcaster anyways, beyond propoganda of course.  We no longer live in a world where the only news people in the middle of nowhere can get is cbc on their TV antenna.

1. The complaints of bias are negligible at best.
2. 3. Those who want it abolished are at an extreme end of the other side.  There are lots of centrists who want to keep it, mostly because PRETTY MUCH EVERY COUNTRY HAS PUBLIC BROADCASTING.  And most countries are not culturally dominated by the world's last superpower.  Would you not expect Taiwan or Ukraine to have public broadcasting to keep the narrative towards national concerns.
4. Many shared news stories originate in MSM.  The fact that onshore propaganda is landing makes the CBC and domestic media ESSENTIAL

So I mistyped. I meant cbc news,  not cbc in general.   Cbc has a place in our culture.  Cbc news is more problematic if editorial bias creeps in.

It’s funny listening to any Trudeau sycophant try to belittle any other politician while supporting the most vapid, empty, unserious and child-like prime minister we’ve ever had.  Does he still wear his superman socks?! 😂🤣
