As reported here a few days ago, Canada's so-called Conservative Party elected a new leader to replace the hapless Andrew Scheep. The one who now holds the poisoned chalice in his hand is Erin O'Toole. Some Canuck cuckservatives applauded -- quietly -- because (they said), at least he wasn't the establishment candidate, the Red Tory Peter McHackey. But real conservatives withheld their approval because their choice, Derek "Conservative Without Apology" Sloan, finished fourth in a field of four.
The result is discouraging for real conservatives. The Canadian Conservative Party is CINO -- Conservative In Name Only -- in reality a party of the centre, differing only slightly from the Liberals of Prime Minister Blacky McBlackface. That is not just my opinion but that of the runner-up in the previous Conservative leadership race, Maxime "Mad Max" Bernier, who quit the Tories in disgust and founded the People's Party of Canada.
Walt has a lot of time for Maxime Bernier. I call him "Mad Max" not because he's crazy, but because he's mad at the so-called Conservatives, and rightly so. You can read his scathing comments on Mr O'Toole and his faux conservatism in our previous post. Yesterday he joined The Andrew Lawton Show to respond to talk about the state of conservatism in Canada and the future of the PPC. Here's the video.
