Jonathan Bridges: Standing Against the Machine

The Alberta Candidate Taking on Pierre Poilievre and Ottawa's Disconnect

In this special edition of The Lavigne Show, host Jason Lavigne sits down with Jonathan Bridges, the People's Party of Canada candidate running in the pivotal August 18th byelection, one that has brought Pierre Poilievre himself out west in an attempt to secure a safe Conservative seat.

But Jonathan isn't your average opponent. A mechanic, father of five, man of deep faith, and two-time PPC candidate, Bridges is rooted in the rural realities of Alberta. He speaks candidly about what drove him to politics: the lockdowns, the erosion of freedoms, and a desire to build a better country for his children, not one buried in debt and detached from its people.

Together, we explore:

* Why he believes the PPC is the only party that truly understands rural Alberta
* The fallout from COVID-19 mandates on mental health, church life, and local businesses
* His thoughts on independence, representation, and Pierre Poilievre’s absentee candidacy
* Why one PPC seat could tip the balance in Ottawa and spark real change

This is more than just an election. It’s a referendum on Ottawa’s arrogance and Alberta’s future.

📍Jonathan Bridges is local. He’s not a parachute candidate. He knows the land, the work, and the values of the people he hopes to represent.

📆 By-election Date: August 18, 2025
