You would also be very incorrect and very revisionist about the bolded.

Liberals were consistently polling in majority territory in July - Aug 2021 getting a push with covid and vaccines, precisely causing Liberals to call a pointless election in the middle of a pandemic for pure political gain.

That the Liberals managed to piss off Canadians so much that Conservative even got a dark horse chance of a win (until the Kenney disaster) is a testament to their arrogance.

Today's polling is far more consistent and far more scary for Liberals. Canadians aren't choosing Poilievre, they are choosing anyone but Liberals / Trudeau.


Conservatives have invested so much energy into hating Trudeau at the federal and provincial levels that a Liberal leadership change could take a lot of wind out of their sails.
