People's Party of Canada Membership Drive: Election 2025
You are among like-minded Canadians who want a Canada that stands for Freedom, Respect, Fairness, and Responsibility.
During the 2021 federal election, 4,000 votes was equal to about 7.5% of the total votes cast across each of the three districts in our catchment. [1] [2] [3]
Our membership was growing. One active local party member was equal to 20 votes at the polls in the central and eastern Fraser Valley. A district with 200 active members resulted in 4,000 votes at the polls.
The 2021 Post-Election Analysis
[1] In his second federal election representing the PPC in the district of Chilliwack-Hope, high school educator Rob Bogunovic, earned 7.7% of the 52,000+ votes cast, of an eligible 85,000 voters - a 61% turnout.
[2] The district of Mission-Matsqui-Fraser Canyon, led by red seal heavy-duty mechanic Tyler Niles, earned 7.1% of the 43,000+ votes cast, of an eligible 70,000 votes - a 61% turnout.
[3] The district of Abbotsford, led by local trucker Kevin Sinclair, earned 7.3% of the 45,000 votes cast, of an eligible 76,000 votes - a 59% turnout.
The Knock-on Effects of a Snap Federal Election
Despite the especially short election notice, Election Canada's two-week late start on administrative support, a very short campaign of only 35 days, and the disappointing voter turnout, Rob, Tyler, and Kevin were three of the top four performers in British Columbia. They also performed more than 2% higher than the national average of 5%.
Even though more than 800,000 supporters voted for PPC candidates, the party failed to win any seats. Many were disheartened after the shocking 2021 election results. Membership numbers dropped. Some associations folded.
Some candidates were abused by the media, suffered blatant employer discrimination, or were even ostracised by their family and friends. Sometimes they experienced two of these effects, sometimes all three. As a result, a number of candidates chose to step away from the heat of centre stage.
Even party headquarters went through restructuring during the post-election years. It was time to grapple with the effects of being a new and unwelcome federal political party that actively pushed back against a hostile environment of moral and intellectual corruption in both government and media.
But in the nationwide political, economic, and cultural disruption of the COVID mandates [ED: treasonous House of Commons] the core remained and learned and adapted. Now, four years later we step into the 2025 federal election better prepared for the battles ahead.
In order to say we will do politics differently we must actually do politics differently.
The Strategy to Win
With renewed vigour and an election year in sight, it is time to sharpen our focus and
build our member base
strengthen local party associations
support our returning and new candidates
Therefore, we developed a strategy to accomplish these three objectives. The strategy is simple; find those who Do Not Vote and motivate them to VOTE! Why? Because they represent up to a third of the eligible voting population!
Notice in the candidate summaries in the first section that about 30% of eligible voters in each district Did Not Vote. This number was also present during the 2019 federal election. It is a consistent statistic nationwide at every level of government election. Almost a third of Canadian voters do not vote!
30% of eligible voters is 4 times the number of votes earned by Rob, Tyler, and Kevin!
After further study, it has become our view that the 30% who have chosen to not vote are of a character and worldview that is well aligned with the values and policies of the People's Party of Canada.
We are convinced that in addition to our core support, the votes of the "Does Not Vote" citizenry could be the difference between merely competing in an election campaign for a Member of Parliament seat and outright winning that competition.
For reference below is the relevant data for the winners (rounded to the nearest thousand):
Chilliwack-Hope
Mark Strahl (CPC)
24,000 votes earned
52,000 turnout
33,000 Did Not Vote
Mission-Matsqui-Abbotsford
Brad Vis (CPC)
19,000 votes earned
43,000 turnout
27,000 Did Not Vote
Abbotsford
Ed Fast (CPC)
22,000 votes earned
45,000 turnout
31,000 Did Not Vote
Now we perform a simple simulation. If the candidate motivates as little as half of the postulated 30,000 Does Not Vote group in their district to vote for them, then the candidate could find themselves firmly in 20,000-vote territory; a probable win.
Operation: Plus One aims to increase our local PPC member rosters to a minimum maintenance level of 1,000 active members in each district.
Phase 1
The electoral district association supports their candidate to build a core of 250 active members (5,000 votes) in their district. This establishes the public relations, fundraising, and logistics base for local operations.
Phase 2
Then add 250 new members. Then add 250 new members. Then add 250 new members for a total of 750 new members. This is drawn largely from the Does Not Vote group and provides an additional 15,000 votes.
Phase 3
Maintain 1,000 active members. This theoretically translates into 20,000 votes cast in each district resulting in a high probability of a win. This is the maximal value of the "1 member = 20 votes" phenomenon.
This almost certainly secures a Purple MP Seat. How?
Active members commit to recruit one new PPC Member!
That is the plan for every active member. Buy or renew your PPC membership today. Then recruit ONE PERSON to join the People's Party of Canada. Then they do it once. And they do it once. Done!
The association, candidate, and member activities detailed in Operation: Plus One will mobilize PPC members - the grassroots of your town - to share the story of your candidate and win the right to be your representative in the House of Commons as a PPC MP!
Make Your Mark!
We believe that there is no single best way to reach out to neighbourhoods; no one event, no one answer. Every little bit helps when it comes to making an impact. By getting involved as volunteers, you can actively participate in the democratic process and advocate for the values and principles that matter to you. With a wide range of projects available, there's something for everyone!
