Pierre Poilievre's problem isn't that he needs to be more moderate, but that he needs to be more radical. Unfortunately Poilievre is controlled opposition. He isn't a legitimate threat to the corrupt power. He's a key part of the Uni party. O'Toole, as his name says, is a complete tool. The guy couldn't even handle Justin Trudeau's IQ.

Poilievre absolutely gets it. And you're right that he needs to be more radical. He needs to keep calling out the crap (apple interview or the latest one yesterday regarding O'Toole's comments). He has the instinct that sometimes slips out off the cuff but plays nice and safe when it's all prepared. Which one wins elections? Well it hasn't been the one that he's followed once so far. The younger vite is behind him BUT they didn't turn out enough to overcome the retirees and urban unemployed who swallow the machine against him. THAT, right there, is where the CPC fails. Not the podcasts or the net. Not the engaged. The unengaged, the passive... The ground game. They fail to motivate the apathetic who agree. Just as the convoy ignited a countrywide movement that needed some to say "fuck this" and they suddenly got off the couch and stood on bridges cheering on people who took the lead as a saviour. Ground game is everything.
Oposição controlada é sintoma de sistema político doente. Poilievre não ameaça o poder corrupto, apenas legitima o status quo.
I didn't vote for him, because I think he's a shill. He says all the right things, depending on who he's talking to, but he doesn't do anything that matters. He's on a podcast tour, talking to people who throw him softball after softball. Yet, he is silent on C-8 and C-9, which will completely change Canada for the worse. The CPC is full of insiders who are part of the Uni Patty, yet Poilievre hasn't once called it out, because he's part of it. He's playing his role very well. Heck, his party allows anyone who is a CPC card holder to vote for leadership, including non Canadian migrants. It's not a serious party. They are only there as a pressure valve for the angery Canadians. He's a shill, and until Canadians realise it, the Uni Party will continue to destroy everything that we care about.
Well, you're kinda stuck then right now. You got no one. We, around the world, already knew that. So keep your head down till you got that FU capital. It's a tale as old as time. You still gotta vote, however for the ones that buy you more optimal time.
