    I was closely following this and I did NOT expect this high of a number. I expected a high number but 87 is crazy and bad sign for the Reformacons. 😅

    It signifies that the party membership is a bit disconnected from the conservative voter pool. CPC - the party - numbers are much higher with voters than PP’s.

      Yeah… like this guy is hugely unpopular, across almost every demographic.

      I do not think they’ll get a stronger performance out of him, this was the largest election turnaround I’ve ever seen, and he’s still complaining about Trudeau.

        Can still win when Carney expires though, which is a matter of time for any politician. There’s no losing if the alternative is more underwater than him. His core base is pretty solid and over 30%.

          Assuming Carney doesn’t make people’s lives better.

          I don’t really think Trudeau did much for our economy, that’s by far his weakest point. And the conservatives just go “we’re the party of the economy and jobs” and people lap it up.

            Assuming Carney doesn’t make people’s lives better.

            Of course. I’m skeptical for myriad of reasons but I hope things turn optimistic. I maxed out my political contribution limits to get him in power instead of having a Freeland-lead LPC lose to PP. Wouldn’t mind getting a bit more than no-PP for it. 😂

              I did too, and I might donate again this year with how he’s doing.

              My big issue with the party is the other liberal MPs who are still awful at communicating what’s being done, and some, like the AI minister still seem like complete javkasses.

                Do you have realistic hope Build Canada Homes would be effective in significantly increasing housing construction with its current strategy?
