Of course its a hit piece. I didn't title the post "conservatives have some doubts about PP". The fact that 17 MPs are talking to a news outlet means it's a coordinated effort by the party to undermine their leader.

That said: There's no hidden bias in the article. It is straightforward about its premise and conclusion. It may have a "bad goal", but truth absolves defamation. The facts aren't weak. "Off the record" is not "made up".

Finally:


Dude's lost the party. Expect resignation within 2 weeks after the by elections, and PP's PodCast on the Rebel News Network by November.
Mailroom Andy, PeePee HairyHare and Jamil Jivani are going to star in a "3 Stooges" Remake.

Ugh, you're really grasping at straws here...
It's not really. The data set in this poll doesn't support what you said. How can you allocate 18% unsure directly to Carney?

I'm just showing the bias, because giving Carney 51% looks better than say 67% are not confident in Carney being unbeatable.

It's feels better to say "Knives are out for Pollievre" then to say Canadians believe he and Harper "would have the highest chance to defeat Prime Minister Mark Carney if they were leader of the Conservative Party or Canada." (Not my words either)

I’ll dumb it down for you. 18% are unsure. How can you add that all to “No one can beat Carney”?
You are assuming 18% will vote, and all would vote Conservative. They would, if they vote, likely split as the nation splits. But realistically in this connected and partisan world its because they just don't follow politics so will either vote as someone tells them, be it spouse, parent or friend group, or can't be bothered unless a single issue drives them there.

A classic example happened to Trudeau. Pot smokers came out for him in the first election. Its how he got his majority. Once he legalized it, they didn't care any more.

Carney isn't Trudeau. His popularity has risen. If this deal is acceptable he will be in clear majority territory

I'm not assuming anything. They are unsure as reported.

But, Dezzie. Tories were about to win a massive majority until PeeWee made such an asshole of himself that the entire country switched to supporting Carney.

Surely if the election was rigged by MSM, everybody would just have voted for Justin.
How can you win an election that hasn't been called?

It's not how it happened, but I'm sure retards like you love this fabricated version much more.

Sure. But I think allocating half is fair. So 60%? What politician, especially in a multi party system wouldn't be happy with that? And what opposition party wouldn't be considering major changes?

Posting a link doesn’t demonstrate he read or even understands what he read.

Hell it doesn’t even acknowledge what he said was right or wrong.
But it is what you asked.
You asked him for the poll - he posted the poll.

If the real request was about interpreting the poll, well then the ensuing conversation has covered that.

In post 51 I posted a screenshot. That I took. While reading the report.

It's literally a 1 question phone survey. Out of the 1104 voting age people surveyed from across the country, 33% don't believe ANY conservative leader can beat Carney. 16% believe Harper could do it, 15% think PP could do it.

I'll read into this: Conservative support hovers around 35%. The conservative party today is a mishmash of older Progressive Conservatives and younger Reform Party/Podcast Bros/MGTOWs. If I add Harperites (PC's) and Po-lievers (Reformers), we're at 31%. If I add up the "no one can beat Carney's" with the "I don't know's", I get 51%. which is about where the Liberals + Dippers are polling.

So the poll seems to pass the sniff test, and tells me that less than half of conservative voters think PP can beat Carney.

And the 17-or-whatever Conservative MP's agree with these results, based on their experience talking to their constituents.
I don't think you are really interpreting this right.

This isn't a poll of support - it's polling if they think a given conservative leader can beat Carney, there is no reason to think they track party support.

Also, the percentages don't add up to 100, as you can see.

The poll seems perfectly valid, sure, but it isn't one of support at all, it's just about vibes on whether or not that leader can pull it off.

Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown is waiting in the wings. Pollievre had to sabotage Brown the last time to get him kicked out of the Federal leadership race. This time Brown should coast to victory and he's also repaired his political image greatly in serving as Mayor.

Carney is sitting at 70% in some recent polls. Unless he royally fucks up he will get a majority whenever he calls an election. If Im Brown I do another term, sort out the Stellantis plant, and wait for the right timing.

You need to get out of your media eco system. He is setting up, and doing the real process work for better trade worldwide. Guys like Trump make proclamations that result in nothing. Carney is getting real deals. New subs, the Spy plane deal, EU affiliation, Aussie radar system, SAFE access.

And standing up to the assholes in the USA.

And as noted, his approval rating in the highest seen in forever. So get used to seeing his face.

BS polls. 70% :LOL:

at this point we are getting close to North Korea government propaganda

with 100% approval rating for the government


"North Koreans are voting to elect the country's rubber-stamp parliament, the second such election since Kim Jong-un took power.

Voting for the Supreme People's Assembly (SPA) is mandatory and there's no choice of candidates. Any kind of dissent is unheard of.

Turnout is always close to 100% and approval for the governing alliance is unanimous.

North Korea is an isolated state, ruled by the Kim family dynasty.

Citizens are required to show complete devotion to the family and its current leader."

Liberal voters in Canada :LOL:
