Not that I disagree with several of the concerns with PP, there are things I don’t like about him. But there are things I don’t like about JT as well, but those 2 are the only realistic choices (neither of them is close to Trump awful for me). I’m fine at this point giving the cons a chance. They might be bad, but I know based on the evidence that Trudeau is.
But there is certainly a limit, we all have it a a different point. And if PP goes too far then I’ll be happy to change my mind.

My biggest concern is that I just don’t see Pierre as having the backbone to stand up to Trump, bringing all of the apples in the world to munch on obnoxiously during trade talks isn’t going to change Trumps approach. And given that some of the CPC’s wealthiest backers have business interests in both countries they probably stand to profit more from a better deal on their investments south of the border which could influence how hard Pierre will fight for Canadian interests. To me, Pierre just comes off as someone who will do as he is told by the powers that be. Hope I’m proven wrong about that.
