Maxime Bernier is the second federal leader to visit Calgary during the campaign.

Bernier made sharp contrasts between his platform and that of Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre .

The fringe party made notable gains in Alberta in the last federal election, more than doubling its vote share in all of its Calgary ridings.

National polling shows declining support for the party in a tight race between Conservatives and Liberals.

The PPC candidate says he wants the election to be an election on mass immigration.

He indicated Alberta was home to key battlegrounds for the party, given its past support.

Bernier is set to meet with supporters at a rally in Calgary on Tuesday evening .

The federal election is set for April 28 .
