I always disliked Skippy. Seems like such a negative, all around shitty person. His entire campaign the last 3 years were about Trudeau bad, axe the tax. When both were gone, he had nothing left to campaign on. His "Canada is broke" B.S. probably really hurt him in the recent surge or patriotism in the face of the Trump threats.
And the guy, even if he suddenly pretended to hate Trump, has always been very Trumpish with his culture wards and obsession with crowd sizes. His support for the illegal occupation "Freedom" Convoy, attended by mostly Trump supporters, was a dumb move (and then the Police Association supporting the guy who supported the illegal occupation, but that's another subject).
Poilievre is not the guy to lead the Conservatives. They need to find a reasonable candidate who's more centrist, has actual ideas, not just slogans and attacks.
