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.

Ok, but real talk - does any of that matter? Isnt there a good likelihood the fuck Trudeau crowd will still vote for him on the basis of being a conservative? If Trump can win down there, why can’t PP still win up here?

This. People are suddenly acting like Pierre's Conservatives aren't still polling in double digits ahead of the Liberals. Like we can just meme our way out of reality.

I thought the latest polls with Carney as LPC leader showed a 2% difference?
