Today the Conservatives are heading into loss territory for the exact reason O’Toole lost, and the thing that would save them is the thing that got O’Toole stood for that got him booted.
Fools.

I would expect the “not a MAGA guy” was thrown out there to help PP. Now he doesn’t need to risk saying anything negative about Trump. Perfect situation for him.

Yeah, that's probably enough to give some of the more gutless CPC voters to say "See? Trump even said he's not MAGA!"

I still don't think that's gonna help him at all. PP is still aligned with far-right Maple MAGA lunatics and I think it's way too late for him to pivot at this point. Canadians want a serious, mature, intelligent adult with real experience to deal with the crisis ahead of us, and PP is the complete opposite of all of those things.

Pepsi has fallen to the "too many quick inline edits" trap. Unless stated otherwise, if one of my posts has an [Edited] tag on it, 9 times out of 10 it's because I accidentally a word when trying to re-arrange something to sound more precise and less clunky or simply to add an idea, and it ends up looking like a child's refrigerator drawing.

I agree with you. Just saying it gives enough coverage to 30+% of the country and 60-70% of Albertans to still justify voting for that walking sack of #### and his merry band of Trump bootlickers.

He could also start expelling or publicly going after the outward MAGAs in his party, but he won't.

I know you're big mad that your boy has been publicly exposed as an empty-headed, slogan machine, in a nice suit, but you can see how poorly he and the party are playing this, right?

You mean like this...? Note the comments and the backlash he got.
There's some folks here that rightfully criticize Poilievre for inactions or poor actions, but there are also some outright fringe partisans who will make up stuff up to make anything right or left of their own stance as wrong (not you).
Let's criticize him for things he is / and is not doing, let's not make misinformed statements to villainize someone for things he has actively stood for. I think he needs to be way stronger and harsher against Trump and has fumbled this horrendously, but he has stood for Ukraine.

Lol wut? PP has previously voted against supporting Ukraine. If he's sincerely reversed course, he should get kudos, but it sure looks like he's just doing it because of how badly the poll are looking for him.

Surely you are not this dumb? Partisan politics plays into those parliament votes, and the specific one vote was against the climate change portion addendum which was placed in as a political bomb.
CPC (both as a party policy and Poilievre) have always stood for Ukraine.
