Poilievre and his team overplayed their hand in the past weeks. If your only response to everything is to attack, you can easily go off track. And clearly people and the press (I still credit Evan for this) are now paying attention.

Now, I don’t think Poilievre cares about this dip at all. His main priorities are raising money, raising money and raising money. And this is still going really well, and it really does not matter if they are at 34% or 41%. The only surprising bit that Poilievre and his team don’t same to worry about having to defend particular positions or behaviour during this money raising exercise. Apparently in their calculation this will matter less when it is time for an election. I think they will be wrong, but maybe wishful thinking on my part.
