Go out and ask people on the street who they want as prime minister, the internet is not the real world so don't go by internet blah blah blah pieces. Ask people about their political disagreements when hanging with friends because friends can strongly disagree on politics and maintain a close relationship. some married couples vote differently from each other. Social media websites will never be an accurate gage of voters intentions.

Genuinely even my conservative family members don’t want to vote for Pollievre, but they all despised Trudeau.

They don’t have anything bad to say about Carney yet.

My father used to really like Poilievre and send me clips of him roasting libs or whatever. That stopped immediately after Poilievre shook hands with the trucker convoy people. My father's a "law and order" kind of guy and that moment completely changed his mind on PP.

If they're consuming right wing media, which these days appears to just be all mainstream and social media, then we already know the statistical likelihood of their vote.

They'll have a reason to vote regressive before they know it.
