For the last 3 weeks I MIGHT agree with you about PP, in that yeah, sure he is giving detailed answers to questions. But is he doing that in good faith?
I would say no. He is answering 4 questions from pre selected media outlets, and ignoring the ones he doesn't like/thinks will ask him harder questions.
Prior to this election his typical response to questions he didn't like was to call them fake news and ignore the question (or keep eating his apple).
When someone uses absolutes like "Always gives detailed answers to questions" it's a pretty good sign that they are a pretty low information voter, and aren't actually paying attention to much beyond what a campaign wants to show them.
That is especially true when it's being used to defend PP, a guy who has famously spend the last few years ignoring questions he doesn't like and more often than not, just pivoting to a 3 word slogan rather than answering a question as asked.
His typical response looks something like this:
Reporter: I have a question about XZY
PP: If you want to talk about XYZ, let's talk about the lost Liberal decade. I'm going to Ax the Tax.
Contrast that with Mark Carney, who even when asked "Questions" by openly adversarial organizations like Rebel News (Seriously, if they were at a Comic Convention, they really would be the "Ahh, more of a comment than a question"), he doesn't insult them, he actually addresses them and answers, what could be generously called, their questions.
