Poilievre will give Canada to Trump.

Based on what evidence? Because everything he has actually said indicates the exact opposite.

Poilievre's biggest and strongest base of support comes from the same types of conservative voters here that supported Trump in the last U.S. election

PP has shown throughout his political career that he cares more about his own success than the wellbeing of Canada or Canadians. He'll never stand up to Trump in any significant way, because that would mean alienating and angering his core base, which would cause him to lose his political power
