I think they cons are hoping he can't blow a 70% lead.

He was supposed to win 230+ seats in one of the largest electoral routs in Commonwealth history. And then people saw him for the little shit-shmuck he is and rejected him.
But don't worry. The party has set up a baby-steps riding for him to run in that he probably can't fuck up and lose.
Alberta MP stepping aside to let Pierre Poilievre run for seat
OTTAWA — Seat-less Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre will try his luck in Alberta.
After losing on election night in his now-former Ottawa-area riding of Carleton, the Tory leader will get the chance to snag a seat in the House of Commons thanks to Battle River-Crowfoot MP Damien Kurek, who has agreed to step aside.
“It has been a tremendous honour to serve the good people of Battle River-Crowfoot as their Member of Parliament since 2019,” Kurek said in a statement.
“Their support and commitment to the Conservative movement and our mission to bring back hope and prosperity to this country has been unmatched. Which is why, after much discussion with my wife Danielle, and I have decided to step aside for this Parliamentary session to allow our Conservative Party leader to run here in a byelection.”
Battle River-Crowfoot ranks among the safest Conservative seats in Canada.
A rural constituency in east-central Alberta between Red Deer and the Saskatchewan Border, towns within the riding include Stettler, Hanna, Drumheller and Camrose.
Kurek represented the riding since 2019, and commanded 82% of the vote in Monday’s election.
Formed after a 2012 redistricting, the riding has reliably sent conservative-leaning candidates to Ottawa for nearly a decade.
No. That claim has been examined a laughed at for 2 or 3 days on Twitter. It's wound-licky bullshit.
Alberta SHOULD leave Canada. It would be in their best interests, given federal policy. By comparison, Quebec SHOULDN'T leave Canada. It isn't in their best interests.
Based on this analysis, expect the Alberta separation movement to grow to AT LEAST the level that it did in Quebec (and the 1995 Quebec referendum was only defeated by the tiniest of margins). The movement won't even require the development of a new political party, as the Conservatives are already the Bloc Alberskatchewan by default.
Right. Because it makes sense to become a landlocked nation of 3 million, losing at least half the population due to an exodus, who won't get the money they think they will, that is pretty much a 2 industry economy, and will soon find the USA will fuck them over.
Btw polling shows about 25% at the moment. They won't get near to 50.
Bell: Albertans will get a vote on Alberta independence — bet on it, baby!
Albertans are pledging support in big enough numbers for a vote of citizens on whether Alberta should stay in Canada or become independent

Albertans will get a vote on Alberta independence — bet on it, baby!
There will be a vote by Albertans on Alberta independence.
Everyone who has their ear to the ground agrees. They say you can bet the farm on it.
And just the fact there is an almost-certain vote on Alberta independence looming on the horizon will be a message heard across the country and right into the office of Prime Minister Mark Carney.
Smith setting the magic number at 177,000 hasn’t even been passed by the legislature yet, the federal election just wrapped up this week and the Alberta Prosperity Project, as of Thursday afternoon, already has 126,000 people pledging to back a vote.
Reportedly, there are other lists of individuals also wanting a vote.
Sources say the total number pledging their support for an independence vote could hit 200,000 in the next few days and we’re not even at the official Day 1 of gathering signatures and the door-knocking campaign to score more support is still to come.
Not only are more people pledging to support a referendum on Alberta independence, many other sorts are most nervous.

25% is the standard quota that supports all far right horseshit. Reform support in the UK is about 25%. Trump's hardcore MAGA base is about 25%. These are angry dum-dums that are prime to support any stupid shit that their leaders pitch at them.
Exodus? A massive influx is FAR more likely!
Alberta is self-sufficient when it comes to food, water, building supplies and energy/ fuel. No other Canadian province can claim the same. These are the building blocks of separation.
Alberta wouldn't be landlocked. Their neighbors will see to that.

Eventually Liberals run out of things to point the finger at. Happened with the BC party, Happened with the Ontario party, Happened to Trudeau and it will happen to Carney. It's just the natural Liberal process.
Elections are over. Time for politics.

Will it take 13 years of Liberal domination to turn your tears of woe into tears of joy? Will the Conservatives come to power federally or will the Leafs win the cup first???
