Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre secures 87.4 per cent backing in a leadership review after delivering a rousing speech in Calgary. Jeremie Charron reports.
Yeah, I genuinely cannot see this as anything other than a massive own-goal for the cons. I know it’s a bad idea to ever, ever underestimate the stupidity of the average voter, but at this point I’m really not seeing how they rehabilitate this guy in the minds of the electorate.
Feels like a big opportunity for the NDP, honestly.

Also a necessity. Carney will expire at some point and PP could win as “the only realistic option.” Kinda how Ford won in Ontario in election after election against lame ducks. I’m not comparing Ford’s political charisma to PP at all, but in a Wynne-like Liberal meltdown scenario, PP might win. Which is why it’s very important that we choose a decent leader fot the NDP and strenghten the party for the next election.

The electorate won’t vote him in, they will split the left and vote the liberals out.
PP is young, FPTP guarantees he will get in if he waits around long enough. He was poised to be elected earlier this year despite his bullshit.
