Behind the PPC’s ‘legitimate chance’ at winning two seats

The commission, you’ll recall, initially denied Bernier, the Peoples Party of Canada leader, a debate invitation. Yet it tempered that rebuff by offering the PPC the chance to submit several ridings where it believed it had a “legitimate chance” of winning. If the fledgling far-right party could prove based on polling data that it has a reasonable chance to elect more than one MP, that would garner an invite.
