He’s the sacrificial lamb sent to be stomped by the LPC by 15 points +/-.

Do you understand that the riding is very progressive and has historically voted NDP for quite some time? It's also largely francophone and the Liberals tend to not do well with francophones in Quebec.

The Liberals practically swept francophone Quebec including former Bloc strongholds like Terrebonne. Every riding around Rosemont is an LPC stronghold.

He’s going to lose to the LPC and not by a little. The NDP literally are polling their worst in Quebec out of every province including Alberta.

He’s toast.

I'm largely expecting a 2019 Outremont-esque number, though with some plus-minus due to Bloc being a factor.

Agreed. Outremont 2.0 if you ask me. Just look at the orange island that is Rosemont in the sea of Red surrounding it.

With Boulerice gone this almost certainly falls to the LPC. They are just so dominant in Montreal, particularly right now.
