MODERATORS
If they replaced him as leader they would have sailed to a win. He attached himself to Trump style politics and it finished him off.
It's a bit alarming to see more Canadian Cons didn't reject him however, but after 3 liberal terms it gets harder and harder.
Wasn't an option. Much like MAGA down south, Poppinfresh completely hijacked the conservative narrative; refusing to allow reporters to follow him on the campaign trail, forbidding Conservative MPs from talking to the media without his approval and only with his selected talking points.
Any divisive information from the Conservative party came by way of leaks and insiders. Poppinfresh in NO WAY wanted there to be any division shown in public. For him, like Trump, it was all hail the leader or he'll do what he can to get your career shit-canned.
In many way, I looked at this election not only as Left vs Right, but at least as much about the Conservatives battle to take back their party to a (slightly) more sane time when differences were largely about economic policies instead of cultural ones.
