We are near the home stretch in the Federal election campaign and over the next few days CKDR News will be profiling the Kenora riding candidates.
Today we feature Michael Di Pasquale of the People’s Party of Canada.
Di Pasquale talks about why he decided to run for the PPC.
“It’s about efficiency which is doing the right thing in the right place at the right time. It’s also a Canada-first policy…really I’m getting a little bit tired of the Trump comparisons.”
He admits the PPC is the most conservative party in the election campaign.
“I believe that we will be able to do the socialist aspects that do so much to make Canada the country it is without the sacrifices that we’re making. I think that we’ll be able to have a vibrant economy, take care of our people and have proper welfare and healthcare systems.”
Di Pasquale says he decided to run because the politics of the Liberals was too much for him.
“Especially with the Liberals they say one thing and they turn around and they do something different. It’s been really upsetting me for a while, they’re throwing away our money, arguably giving away our country. It’s quite sad.”
The Red Lake area resident is a first-time candidate for any party in the federal election.
