So when he says that the CPC is \u201cintellectually and morally bankrupt,\u201d his observation is based on direct experience.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not our war,\u201d says Bernier about the situation in Ukraine.  <strong>Calling for diplomatic negotiation instead of military escalation, he has found that this view has become an unacceptable discussion point in Canada,<\/strong> where the Trudeau government is forcing Canadian taxpayers to fund the very escalation he fears. <\/p>\n<p>Sadly, reaching Canadians with news about the PPC or its take on the issues has become an uphill struggle. In a country whose fourth estate has been transformed into a taxpayer-funded propaganda machine, the odds of any objective reporting about the PPC or its leader from this media are remote indeed.  <\/p>\n<p>Because he has wisely refused to take state-mandated injections, Bernier has been prohibited from travelling freely within his own country. Consequently, <strong>Bernier has joined with former Newfoundland premier Brian Peckford (one of the original framers of Canada\u2019s Charter of Rights and Freedoms) to file a lawsuit against the Trudeau government\u2019s violation of everyone\u2019s constitutional right to travel in Canada.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No one, let alone a leader of a national party, should ever be subject to travel restrictions or injection mandates.  In the face of the Left\u2019s contempt for individual freedom, Bernier\u2019s style of \u201cdoing politics differently\u201d becomes a necessity. Of course, everyone already knows that being Just Right is about as different from how politics is done today as it gets. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/blog\/758-topics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/images\/buttons\/topics.gif\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/blog\/758-clips-credits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/images\/buttons\/clips_and_credits.gif\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you found this presentation valuable please consider supporting us:<br \/>\n&#x1f9e1; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.me\/justrightmedia\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">PayPal<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWe need an ideological revolution,\u201d recommends our guest Maxime Bernier, leader of the People\u2019s Party of Canada (PPC).
