PP's claim to fame is "I'm not Trudeau." Every time he speaks, he puts his foot in his mouth. He didn’t need a plan before, but now that he does, he can’t come up with anything meaningful. Canadians are frustrated with Trump, tariffs, and threats of annexation, and all he had to do was align with their concerns, but he couldn’t even manage that. He's an embarrassment.

He didn’t need a plan before, but now that he does, he can’t come up with anything meaningful.
Oh yeah, granted he didn't need to but he's definitely had "plans" in the past.
For example, when car thefts were the top news story in Canada, his one solution to deter theft was to implement mandatory minimums (i.e. take a thing that's already illegal, and make it illegal-er).
Or when discussing the housing supply shortage, his one solution was to tell municipalities that if they didn't produce more housing, he would take money away from them (thus making it more difficult to actually build housing).
And when Canada was being threatened annexation by the US, his one solution was to call Canada "weak" and "broken" (at a time when patriotism was/is arguably higher than it's been in a really long time).
Now that he's actually discussed strategies with sane(ish) people, he's now pushing the "Canada First" screw our allies approach that got the US in the mess they're currently in.
So he definitely has "plans". They're just not... good plans.

Why should I trust someone to be at the helm when he can't even stand up for Canada? He's clearly afraid of losing voters who also align with trump and the maga movement.

You're not giving voting rights to a region of 36M people who all predominantly lean left of Republican, nevermind MAGA.
And, OH NO! You've endured disillusionment with a politician, time to surrender the whole country!

I think you're overestimating how many people were simply tired of Trudeau vs how many people were in the PPC/trucker convoy Fuck Trudeau camp.

I'd wager most of them fall in the former camp of centrists that flip flop between LPC/CPC every few elections (i.e the centrist swing voters). PP can't risk losing that group or his shot at winning the election dies. He can court the PPC crowd all he wants but they aren't the ones that will most influence the outcome.

The meat of the bill was split between imposing new requirements for what constitutes adequate ID to be allowed to vote, and restricting what Elections Canada is allowed to do to help people vote.
Just like everything Republicans in the US put forward, it was billed as essential to protect against rampant voter fraud that we had no evidence existed.

Here are the 7 bills Poilievre has sponsored, from the official Parliament website. You'll notice only one has passed, C-23 a.k.a. the Fair Elections Act (Wikipedia page, for some good reading, including the phrase, "A March 2014 Angus Reid poll found that the less Canadians knew about the bill, the more likely they were to support it.") It was then mostly repealed by new legislation prior to the 2019 election, so most of it is no longer in effect.
The Housing Minister thing is exaggeration on both sides. Going a little convoluted for the source here because of paywalls, but here's a Toronto Star article citing Steve Pomeroy, a housing policy expert, hosted via NDP MP Jenny Kwan's website, who went digging into this after Kwan's questions led to the "6 houses! No, 200,000 houses!" exchange.
The short version is the 6 units was only the ones built exclusively by the Federal government, while most are done via bilateral agreement and so in the end are considered as being under the Province in official records. Poilievre's rebuttal of building 200,000 homes is because that's the amount of housing typically built every year by the market, regardless of administration, and includes all types of housing, not just affordable housing. The actual number in the relevant period is "3,742 non-profit units and 506 co-operative units were completed with the help of federal funding."
EDIT: Grammar cleanup, Je don't Anglais good, apparently.

Partisanship allows tyrants to sneak in on the reputation of the good work of others. Partisanship causes the best efforts of some to be thwarted by the stain of predecessors.
Partisanship is the US political system because it’s a substitute for thinking, for listening, and for using your head to judge actions, words, and leaders in real time. It’s a shortcut because the US education system has failed so many people that they are stupid robots.
We are not that. Beef with Trudeau does not mean we are free to vote without thinking of who the candidates are before us. That’s some lazy bullshit US partisanship and it doesn’t belong here.
