Poilievre’s Return: Win, Warnings, and What’s Next
Description
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is back in Parliament after winning a decisive byelection in Alberta’s Battle River–Crowfoot riding. His return comes just months after losing his long-held seat in Ontario, but this victory, though expected in a Conservative stronghold, sets the stage for bigger tests ahead.
With national polls showing the Liberals under Prime Minister Mark Carney in a commanding lead, Poilievre faces a critical leadership review in January and mounting questions about his appeal in Ontario. From tackling economic issues like inflation and housing to shaking off comparisons to Donald Trump, Poilievre must now prove he can evolve into a leader capable of winning nationally.
