It's funny, I wondered to myself a few days ago how someone as based as Derek Sloan has survived this long with the Tories. And then a couple days later he got investigated and now he's shit canned.
Pierre Poilievre has lasted over 16 years. I wonder if he's next.
Poiliviere isn't socially conservative. He supports gay marriage, doesn't have anything against abortion and calls out other Conservatives when they rant against LGBT. He's just a younger Erin O'Toole with more charisma and slightly more in favor of smaller government.
Doug Ford in Ontario's Tories fired a MPP for being anti-lockdown. So I wondered about Pierre Poilievre's survivability in the federal Tories.
Pierre Poilievre isn't explicitly anti-lockdown. But when he roasted the free-spending Liberals for running up a huge deficit, he's implying that he's anti-lockdown defacto. As I'm sure CRB, EI, CEBA, etc. are accounting for a large chunk of the federal deficit right now. And I'm sure it's not cheap to be mass PCR and antigen testing every day.
There are some social conservatives that will die on their hill of principles.
