    Because an extremist like him cannot convince enough swing voters to vote for him. I know conservatives who voted for Carney because he’s essentially a Blue Tory or what would have been a progressive conservative back in the day before the Conservative Party in Canada got taken over by the extremist Reform party. No way PeePee appeals to enough moderates. Harper and Peter McKay merged the conservatives and the reform and we haven’t had a conservative PM since Harper a decade ago. Canadians federally are mostly just liberal.

    Not to mention, as long as Doug Ford (the most powerful conservative in Canada) is in power in Ontario, federally the country will never go conservative. There is always either a conservative federal government with a liberal Ontario provincial government or a liberal federal government with a conservative Ontario provincial government. They never align.

    So no. PeePee will never be PM.
