Justin Ling: Pierre Poilievre ist als Vorsitzender der Konservativen vorerst vielleicht sicher – aber wenn er das im Jahr 2026 bleiben will, muss er Folgendes tun

He should just resign if the CPC wants to ever have a hope of bringing back centrist votes. Even Trudeau finally understood when the writing was on the wall.
No leader has ever failed as much as Pierre Poilievre, and he’s going down as the worst leader in Canadian history.
– blew a 30% lead going into an election;
– lost his own seat
– had to move his leadership review to Alberta, restrict mail in ballots, and jack the price up just to potentially save his leadership
– had 2 MPs cross the aisle, then both blamed how divisive he is;
– had another MP quit.
It’s also very likely he will have another MP cross the aisle in the coming weeks/months resulting in the first ever majority won based on floor-crossers.
I’m no CPC supporter, but if they have any self respect or want any hope of winning in the future, they need to fire this looser.
The sole reason why he’s safe is because despite how bad he is, the conservatives are all either just as bad or worse from a leadership perspective.
Last election, Poilievre was really running against Justin Trudeau. Next election, he won’t have that prop.
It’s always funny when the talking heads suggest Pierre can change. He can’t. He’ll always be a puerile ___hole.
The base love him, fundraising doesn’t seem to be a problem,and the MPs that don’t like him, well,if they keep leaving they can’t exactly oppose his leadership of the party now can they?
I think a lot of Pierre voters simply cannot understand that Pierre is very special; a very unique leader compared to other CPC potentials in that he drains the NDP vote to the liberals because he is terrifying to the NDP in order to appeal to his base. There are other CPC candidates that are not as terrifying.
The idea is if there someone who is not Pierre, the NDP will split the vote with the liberals allowing the CPC to win.
That’s the theory, I guess the issue would be would the CPC base turn out for the new person (I think so because they are so desperate to stop the liberals).
Of course if Pierre’s attitude causes another person to cross, well Pierre is the liberals best friend because he would have cemented approximately 15 years of liberal rule lol. The funny thing is Pierre supporters will blame everything except Pierre for giving the liberals everything.
I can absolutely see Pierre staying on another 3-4 years and losing again to Carney. His supporters will never leave his side; it’s the Simpsons Skinner out of touch meme.
It’s surprising they don’t realize Carney wants Pierre there and Pierre supporters are helping Carney lol.
