To be fair, I think that this Conservative candidate is even worse:

He fancies himself quite the intellectual, opining on many subjects, notably aboriginals and women: "Before treating our ancestors as thieves, we have to at least not betray history. In Quebec, it's the descendents of the French who have ancestral rights [to land], not the Mohawks. The Supreme Court still does not understand that."
and
"To be fair, I think it's better to speak of men's authority over women, than of superiority. I think that male-female relations were not determined by religion, but rather by forces present before religions [existed]. Man was stronger than woman, the woman was placed under his protection. Because of pregnancies, women were often in a state of fragility or insecurity, so men protected them, etc."
