Thank you Jamil for taking this step and the ultimate gains for your riding and Canadians. I was introduced to you as a listener on Newstalk 1010 and really appreciated your values, beliefs and your sense of honesty and humor! I texted the show more than once suggesting you run for office and delighted that this is your new path. Congratulations and all the best!

Congratulations Jamil! You are a force for good. Canada needs you. I am in Alberta, follow you and would vote for you if you were here. My riding is Conservative.

I wish I lived in Durham region because you’d definitely have my vote.. I wish you all the best Jamil!

We need more strong leaders like Jamil who stand up for what’s right and won’t back down.

Good luck. I'm not from your riding and also, I'm disenchanted with the Conservative Party. I support PPC and its leader, Maxime Bernier. The only leader that goes by principles and not by polls.

I hope your Party appreciates you're a person with integrity and doesn't condemn you as they did with Leslyn Lewis and other stand up representatives.

You have to look at the practical side of things. PPC are too far right and will never fly with Canadians. Especially as you are running against a monster like Trudeau who will pull out all the stops , i.e. misinformation, disinformation, right wing American politics etc. and will stop at nothing to win, i.e. Chinese interference, controlling the internet - by the time the next election comes, the public inquiry will still be in full swing - too late for Canadians to decide just how phony Trudeau is.

I have no idea what Canadians define now as " far right wing"? To be principled and not expedient? To protect family values? To defend personal rights? To keep your promises and do not swing when the polls tell you to? Well, I guess I'm ok with " far right wing " .In my world , that's not "far right wing " but being honest, ethical and perhaps in Canada, naive too. Anyway, I appreciate your response. I was not expecting any. Thank you.
