"Laura-Lynn Tyler Thompson, the People’s Party of Canada candidate in the upcoming byelection in Burnaby South, is a self-described social conservative who has hosted Christian television shows and is an activist opposed to teaching sexual orientation and gender identity in B.C.’s sex education curriculum.

She spoke effusively about a “silent majority” of Canadians she believes are worried that Justin Trudeau’s Liberal policies could constrain their freedoms. As examples, she recalled the “values attestation” for Canada Summer Jobs grants, which Liberals backed down from last year, and Bill C-16, the law that added “gender identity or expression” to a list of possible grounds for discrimination in the Criminal Code and Human Rights Act.

Social conservatives helped Scheer to victory over Bernier in the Conservative Party’s 2017 leadership race. Today, Tyler Thompson said, “droves” of them are leaving his side, seeing more opportunity in the PPC. Her own attempts to run as a Conservative had been rejected by the party, she said. “I believe that the Conservative Party is underestimating the groundswell of the grassroots people who feel they have been ignored.

As for climate change, Tyler Thompson rejects that the science is decided. “I always think, isn’t it kind of getting a bit colder around here?” she said. “Why should we ruin our economy for generations based on making the problem one- to two-per-cent better?

She said she knows she will take flack for her views, and does not expect a “fair shake” from media, although she likes right-wing outlets such as The Rebel. Nonetheless, she invoked the election of U.S. President Donald Trump as an example of how a “silent majority” can make itself known."

The smear campaign against her that will

Come from the Canadian media should foreshadow the campaign against any female SC candidate put forward by Trump.
