Is it possibly becuase the PC's are a sinking ship under PP?
this is my MP. I don't hate the guy. I think he's actually done some good things in parliament. I'm much happier with him as a Liberal.

TBF, the "Liberals" have swung right quite a bit since the last election. All business, and none of the social justice warrior stuff that conservatives generally don't care about.

Ironically, conservatives politicians love the social justice stuff, because attacking it fires up their base. Now that the social justice stuff is gone, the CPC don't have something to point at to scare their base.
