He’s basically not been a noticeable voice in the tariff threat crisis. That’s gotta cost him.

My gut says the youth, but I know that boomers love all caps posting on FB.
Perhaps the better question is which social media venue ?

I could see that. Older people aren’t as effected by the Liberals policies (and if anything have actively benefited from them). Young people have had the opposite experience.
Younger people eschew FB altogether. It’s seen as a platform for ‘old people’.
My back hurts…

People 65 and over have experience that includes memories of Canadian politics and culture going back to PET's ascent. Most of their adult lives have been dominated by Liberal governments, and notwithstanding the difficult economic decade from roughly 1975 to 1985, dominated by opportunity easily grasped. They're used to a thinner information diet based on broadcast TV and newspapers. Much of their lives they've been accustomed to only knowing what passes the establishment gatekeepers.

Older central and eastern folk get their news flow from Liberal funded mainstream media, where Liberal incest is incredibly pervasive. They love any reason to vote Liberal. If Carney is weaseled into power, this country has absolutely no hope.

Interesting listen

Some more movement. Almost a straight increase in popular and seat projections.
Note: this is the first time the CPC has not been at 99% chance of getting a majority. At 95% now.
While still way ahead, I’m sure the trend is worrying some CPC back room types trying to figure out their next move.
For the first time, the bottom end of the seat projection range has dropped below clear majority as well.338Canada Canada | Poll Analysis & Electoral Projections

This is an entirely predictable “falling off the peak” of support, and shouldn’t be a big cause for any alarm for anyway. But it does mean the CPC need to be attentive to what still works, what no longer registers, and where they should shift or pivot. It could be a couple short months or eight long ones before the election.
Not really any “hope”. For a surge. But certainly cause that maybe a real choice could be in the offering. Especially for centrists.
The fact that the CPC is going to make some significant change to their approach is reason enough to assume they are worried enough to have to pivot. Better sooner than later.
If both leading parties adopt actual economic centrist policies and steer themselves more to the center, it will be a refreshing change.

Warren Kinsella warned of this many months ago (long before Trudeau resigned), he said Pierre P campaign was all based on holding Trudeau accountable at the election polls and it seemed to be helping him. He then warned WHEN Trudeau walks (Warren predicted 18 months ago Trudeau would resign and not go to an election) that the CPC would have to shift their focus.
So one objective is achieved, time to lay onto a new target and carry on rapid fire, long burst. Thats all.
Warren Kinsella was Chretien's war room advisor on the campaign trail. I don't agree with everything he says but damn, I have been following him on Sun media and he has been very predictive in many of his political calls.

Add to the above, the CPC can change all their election material, pre-election ads/videos messaging with unlimited spending (they have $41.8 million) prior to the Elections Canada spending limits when election called.

The is an example of the regionalism that is a root cause of our problems.
We need to do something that's in the best interest of the country; and Premier you need to get out of the way.
