This is an awful take. PPC needs too keep
Right where it is and keep bleeding CPC from the right. The minute they let up the CPC will snap back as far left as it can while still pretending to be distinct from the liberals.
The only reason Pierre is leader is because of the PPC being positioned where it is. I have no desire to go back to Scheer and O'Toole promising to drive the country off the cliff at only 85km/h to Trudeau's 100km/h.
I for one am far more optimistic about the landscape of Canadian politics with the PPC as a separate party.
Max can always threaten him with vote splitting if he does not concede and merge into the PPC while giving him the party name.
PPC unfortunately has no leverage. It sucks that they won zero seats in the last election.
Max could not even keep his incumbent seat.
Threatening to vote split is not the best play since the CPC establishment is too arrogant and will just foolishly ignore them.
All the good candidates from the PPC need to join the CPC and reform the party from within.
