Pierre Poilievre will run in a by-election in the most conservative riding in Canada ➙ Battle River-Crowfoot, Alberta. 

I ASSuME he wants to stay opposition Party leader for the next 4-5 years. 

Dumb.  Dumb.  Dumb. 

Is there any chance Quebec would vote for PP from Alberta in the next election? 

In the rest-of-Canada, this ties Poilievre to Alberta premier Smith ➙ a right wing extremist who wants to be the 51st U.S. state.  😀 

Canadians grew sick of Trudeau.  And they’ll grow sick of Poilievre’s whining in the coming years.   He’s already less popular than the Party, as was Trudeau.

No other Party wants to partner with the Cons in any future minority government.

Instead …

• Elect a new leader from Quebec
• Elect a fiscal conservative with creditability.  (Someone like Mark Carney,)
• Distance the Party platform from ReTrumplicanism which will be in the toilet by the 2026 midterms
• Abandon populist social conservative trends.  (The deplorable will vote Conservative anyway.)
• Go back to conservative policies more in line with those of Preston Manning, back in the day

The worst of recent unsuccessful leaders was Andrew Scheer.  I ranked him 0 / 100. 

WORST case scenario would be replacing PP with someone like Scheer. 

Thanks Bryce.
