If someone doesn't hire you because they don't agree with your political viewpoints, that is discrimination and they could get in a lot of trouble (at least in the U.S.; I would imagine there are similar laws in Canada). It's not like you're going to start political arguments in the middle of the office (at least, I hope not ), and they should hire you based on your work experience and skills.
