The bloc shouldn't even exist as a Federal party...it represents provincial interests.

[rustyshackelford]

Absolute disgrace that the didn't allow Maxime Bernier to participate.

[ghostband]

Very intense debate where everyone agreed with each other and only argued about who can give Quebec the most money.

[darrylmacdonald]

Why are there TWO french language Debates but Only one in English?

[SuperLuckyTa]

Where is Mr. Bernier? PPC - People's Party of Canada!

[jeanbruel]

The debate whitout the PPC is not a real debate.

[meenerman]

the top issue is day cares? really?
whats going on in this country...

[aryansarvian]

Bernier? CBC not even considering him a candidate during advertising... Hmmm

[brianstoner]

Biggest stand out is the people's party was kept out of this debate

[jamesnovotny]

This debate was a complete waste of time and an absolute disgrace

[nickknight]

The only true Conservative party was not invited.

[coleride]

i was wavering between CPC and PPC, until max was kept out of the debate, therefore PPC all the way

Marty, clean up yer damn basement dude

Not all leaders are there, how's this a fair democracy?

[mariohilaire]

Trudeau's Resume showed he had a couple of years of working experience as a drama teacher and a ski instructor, that was all. He is NOT qualified as a Canada PM. Vote him OUT.

The vast majority of Western Canada votes NDP or Conservative. Every time Eastern Canada forces a divisive Liberal government on us they are pushing us more towards separation. Think about that before you cast your vote.

Where the heck are the leaders ... bring up sock boys ethics Crimes!!!!

[larrysteve]

8 million people get 2 debates, but the other 30 million only get 1 this is why we need a western bloc party and it exists its called the maverick party

[alexxx]

Why would PPC not be there when they have more support than the Green Party?

[mikemarshall]

Please people go read the PPC platform. Take responsibility.
