I actually think the CPC and LPC at their cores are almost too fundamentally similar in principle, exclude the extremeish fringes on both sides as they are pretty irrelevant and shushed quickly, lol.
I'm not super Conservative, I am not affiliated in either direction. I just am unsupportive of the LPC this time around. I voted for Kent Hehr in 2015 so I'm 'part of the reason' for the last decade I suppose.
Main point is that is I don't think a Conservative gov't is all doom and gloom. It's likely don't get that chance so I can be proven right, but that's ok too I guess, as I mentioned earlier whoever wins will have a tough go at it.
And yes (thankfully) we are nowhere near the American way of far right vs Centre but the two party system is the way we are trending.

I agree with you in general but think the current Conservative party is letting that fringe take too much control. It's no longer a fringe at that point, it's the party.
PP had a real opportunity to go after centrist voters and gave up on it. That tells me he is the fringe himself.
Hopefully if they lose, they move back towards the centre and we do end up with both main parties away from the fringes; but I'm not hopeful on that.
But in general, I see what you're saying and respect your reasoning.
