PP lost his own seat. That would suggest that the Conservatives as a party are significantly more popular than PP himself, and that with a less extreme leader they probably would've won.

And as far as the vote total being so much higher than when Harper won? That's because there's over 5 million more Canadians now than there were in 2011.

Oh, I've been saying for a while now that if they still had O'Toole that it would have been a Con sweep. But he was too moderate for the Maple MAGA wing of the party so they booted him out for Poilievre.

O'Toole sucks of course but he sucked less than most Conservatives and he was trying to drag the party kicking and screaming closer to the centre and they just couldn't abide that.
