I signed up to be one of the founding members of the brand new libertarian-leaning conservative party, recently started about 8 weeks ago, call The People's Party of Canada. Last year TV celebrity and business owner Kevin O'Leary was campaigning about a possible run in the last federal election, and although his message resonated across the country he knew it was unlikely for a victory so he backed out and did not run. At that time he recommended his supporters get behind Maxime Bernier, and that's when I first started to look into him.
Last week I got an email saying that Max would be in Calgary at an event on Friday night, so I took the time off and I traveled down to Calgary with my friend @PhusionPhil. The weather was not too bad on the way there, we made it in time to get some food first and then travel to the hotel. Parking was not very spacious but we did find a place along the road, and we got inside just in time for the event to begin.
The room was packed. Standing room only at the back had to suffice and when I looked over I saw all the media with their cameras and their smartphones ready to go. After a short introduction, Max entered the room and walked right past me. So he's real and I got to see him. He went to the front and in fluent English, but with his French accent, he began his opening statements and even cracked a few jokes.
If you would like a more detailed breakdown of the points he made, check out my friends steemit post.
