Plus they have, for better or worse, embraced this kind of rhetoric now. No change in leader will make most people think twice. There doesnt appear to be the same intra-party discontent as was revealed in the Liberal party to make the shift seem more legitimate.

But i still think PP gives the CPC the best chance to win.
Scheer was just terrible. I think O’Toole’s issue was giving into the far right elements of the party and the pandering that came after (the O’Toole from the leadership run and the statement he made on his exit, both a rejection of those elements, were well received outside the party).

PP’s popularity has been largely due to anti-Trudeau sentiment, which is increasingly irrelevant. He needs another gear if he wants to hold on to the majority he was all but promised. How many years has it been since we’ve seen one?
