Among the less commented-on results of the Toronto-St. Paul’s by-election was the performance of the People’s Party of Canada, the populist-nationalist party led by former Conservative cabinet minister Maxime Bernier. If you missed it, here it is: they got 234 votes, or 0.63 per cent of the total.
What a disappointment this must be for the PPC, after winning 2.67 per cent of the vote in the riding in the past general election. But it’s in keeping with the trend nationally. In the 2021 election the PPC took nearly 5 per cent of the vote. Nowadays it’s mired in the two-to-three-per-cent range.
Coyne bullshits for a living, but this nonsense is below even his typically low standards.
