If I was running the Conservatives federally I would make this the last election where you don't have a real climate change policy. That might work with Alberta/Saskatchewan but it won't play in the big population centres in Ontario/Quebec.
I think they misread that Doug Ford won in Ontario because people just wanted the Liberals out, not because of his anti-carbon tax/climate plan rhetoric.
Climate change is going to quickly become another abortion/gay marriage issue where the Conservatives will need to buy in and at least give some semblance of plan.
