I actually heard of the Soldiers of Odin. Mind you I wouldn't recognize their logo unless it literally spells out its name.
Anyway if you are going to get self righteous on this issue you should at least have the correct group in mind. the people in the Bernier pic were from the group called the Northern Guard. I have never heard of them and I am guessing you haven't since you skipped naming them in favor of the more famous group the Soldiers of Odin.
That is pretty stereotypical. I am offended please retract and apologize.

There is no need to be an apologist for Maxime Bernier at this point. His politics are something you would see on 4chan and the PPC openly caters to extremists.

And to be honest: whatever group they're part of, to apparently nonchalantly pose with people who *look and are dressed like that* ought to be enough to set off alarm bells these days. But from all appearances, Bernier had no problem...

I take it you’re not familiar with Doug Ford’s mayoral campaign.

Early PPC supporters are quitting the party. It is attracting the wrong crowd and Bernier is doing nothing to stop this from happening.

I wonder how many other candidates will bail--and somehow, I can see Renata Ford *not* bailing (largely because she's too brain-fried)

The ones who hoped to represent a libertarian style party should get out while they still can.

Well Videodrome you have finally convinced me that there are a large number of people who did support the PPC that were complete idiots. People like the ones who wrote the letter. They are claiming that Maxime Bernier supports economically closed borders while his platform is the most pure free trade supporting of any party.

It doesn't matter what platform they claim to have. That has been overshadowed by all of the nut jobs and Maxipad's own rants.
Even the PPC will drop candidates.

Bernier promises to build border fences if elected PM
Maxime Bernier says that if he becomes prime minister, his government would slash immigration and refugee numbers, build a fence to block asylum seekers from walking across the border, and end a program that lets immigrants sponsor their families to join them.

And out of the CPC, making the Tories more electable by default. Thanks, as you put it, Maxipad.

Also this:
Mississauga is incredibly multicultural. Perhaps he didn't know that?
Bernier also revived the values test that Leitch pushed during her leadership campaign.
