Bernier is awful, but a win would likely result in the PPC gaining strength in the next election, which would pull far right voters away from the CPC and weaken them while keeping the far right on the fringes. That sounds good to me. I don't think it's at all likely that he'll run against Poilievre and win, but it would be fine by me.
As a progressive voter I certainly wouldn't mind if the right shared the joys of vote splitting.
The CPC and the LPC split the right every election.
