Canada香蕉视频直播檚 brief brush with the People香蕉视频直播檚 Party of Canada showed that attacking the country香蕉视频直播檚 multiculturalism won香蕉视频直播檛 score a spot in Ottawa, according to Simon Fraser University professors.
香蕉视频直播淲e do hear Canadians concerned about immigration, but the way it was framed with the PPC didn香蕉视频直播檛 resonate with more than a handful of Canadians across the country,香蕉视频直播� said political science instructor Stewart Prest.
The People香蕉视频直播檚 Party was shut out of the House of Commons, with even he香蕉视频直播檇 held since 2006 in Beauce, Que. His father had held the riding for more than two decades.
Bernier formed the right-leaning party in 2018, after he lost the Conservative leadership race to Andrew Scheer by only a couple percentage points.
The party espoused views that denied climate change and asked for immigration to be cut in half.
On Twitter, Bernier thanked the Canadians who voted for his group, saying the 香蕉视频直播渞esults were disappointing香蕉视频直播� but the struggle for a better society never ends.香蕉视频直播�

Cara Camcastle, who also teaches political science at SFU, said the party香蕉视频直播檚 poor showing sets Canada apart from the U.S., especially in how it responds to immigration.
She said she believes that after this election, where a 香蕉视频直播渇ringe香蕉视频直播� party got less than two per cent of the popular vote, proportional representation should make it back into the discussion.
