I remember this stupidity during the Harper years. All the boogyman stuff never materialized, and many of the issues around abortion are still lurking to this day despite Harper being long gone.
Canada had a quality candidate in O'Toole. Yes he perhaps wasn't the preferred guy, but he was good enough as a candidate to remove what was at that time already a corrupt Liberal government.
It is amusing how the Liberal supporters here who are making excuses keep saying 'i will only vote CPC if they do this, only vote if they do that', when in reality we all know they are never going to vote CPC.

Maybe that's true of some CP members, but I think you're underestimating that in the voter base.
I know a lot of people who voted CPC for the first time with O'Toole (myself included) and definitely won't vote for PP.
There's a lot of centrists who don't like Trudeau but can't go far right Conservative.
