Well he’s now campaigning for an election in Alberta so presumably there’s audience for this. It didn’t work well Canada-wide. Come next federal election, the media cycle would ensure people don’t recall this episode. If he passes leadership review.
You mean when he lost the popular vote by less than 2% and gained 25 seats while the Liberals only gained 9? Yeah, obviously nobody liked him or the Conservatives, eh?
You mean before the Liberals pulled Donald Trump out of their bag and proclaimed that he was an existential threat to the survival of Canada? The same Donald Trump that has failed at almost EVERYTHING he has attempted since he won the election, the Donald thats now so embroiled in his Epstein controversy that he may not survive the midterms? And voters fell for that fear factor, hook line and sinker. Im not saying Carney’s not doing a decent job so far, but the ‘Donald threat’ was definitely overblown. The man is an imbecile with a shotgun in his hand firing wildly in all directions. And f’n up everything he hits. Hes an existential threat to America, all Canada has to do is wait for him to implode, which he definitely will.
I assume this was meant to be in reply to my comment. I highly disagree with your contention that the threat of Trump is overblown. But put that aside. Let’s say I grant it, you’re absolutely right and the Liberals used the situation at the time to their advantage and pulled victory from the jaws of defeat.
Uh, so what? That’s the game. Poilievre tried to paint himself as a protector of Canada as well and the country didn’t buy it, at all. That’s on him and his leadership. It’s not a mitigation of his failure that he got rope-a-doped by what was looking to be a dead Liberal party.
You make it sound like Poilievre is Jagmeet Singh. Poilievre did lose the election, but not by much. The popular vote was less than 2% difference. And he GAINED 25 seats, the LIberals only gained 9 so percentage wise the Conservatives did a fantastic job of increasing their reach and constituency, just not enough to win the election. The loser in the election was the NDP who got decimated, but to pretend that “the country” thinks Poilievre is a loser is patently false.
He’s going to bide his time and when voters see how far the Liberals will sink us into debt, how ridiculous their gun buyback program is, and the next inevitable Liberal scandal, he will emerge to campaign for the next election. Carney’s doing a good job so far, but he’s still working with the gaggle of bozos who sank Canada as far as its fallen in the last 15 years. There will be a time to make things right again.
Once again, you’re ignoring the context around the last election to minimize the Conservative collapse. They were looking at an easy historic win until a world event happened and the Liberals were able to capitalize on it and the Conservatives couldn’t. Not a great demonstration of Poilievre’s ability to roll with the punches and play the game.
And is why Carney is allowing the by-election so soon. The sooner pp is back in the house, the sooner he opens his damn mouth, and the faster his support falls.

That’s sort of ignoring the context where they were sailing to an easy majority a few months before the election.

Yeah, exactly. An Erin O’Toole would have killed it this election.
