Did you miss the last episode of Trend Line?

There's rumblings that Jean Charest could be considering a run, but Nik thinks it would be hard for him to win the leadership and even harder to manage the Tory caucus.

Not a single conservative I know here in Ontario would vote for Jean Charest. He is yesterday's news and should bow out of politics all together.

[costa]

Charest just stepped out of nowhere to ruin it for Poilievre, just like Trudeau ordered.

[hithere]

So we get rid of O'Toole only for them to throw Jean our way. Rediculous.

[Stonecoldfrank]

Did anybody ask for Charest?! Everybody seemed just happy with Poilievre

[poliver]

Charest is a retired Quebec Liberal Premier as a former Federal Conservative. The Conservative voters will not vote for Charest!

[TheSteveRobinson]

Charest is yesterday's news. If the Conservatives even consider him for the leadership they have lost my vote as a Conservative since the 70's.

[automotiveaddiction]

I'm all for Pierre.have been watching him for a few years..he seems to be what we need as Prime Minister

[alexiapucci]

Poilievre has been an active Member of the House of Commons of Canada that has always stood up for all Canadians before and during Covid. This includes raising issues that affect ALL Canadians from West to East in parliament due to the current gov policies that contribute to inflation, increase housing purchases, increase manufacturing monetary, multiple ethical investigations done on the current gov, and natural resources which now with the Ukraine situation has put Canadians in more financial trouble which could of been less impact on Canadians until a permanent cost efficient and solution is in place for all Canadians to eventually replace these resources. Of course there are other issues, but the point is Poilievre has always been fighting for all Canadians.

The more you push Charest the more we want anyone else.

[tubedude]

If Charest is elected leader of PC I will never vote conservative again .I wonder how much Trudeau payed Charest to try and spoil poieives chances

[aaronlegresley]

Corruption at it's finest. The ONLY reason for this is trying to keep Pierre out.

[Yodatodaso]

Pierre sounds like a leader and Charest sounds like liberal.

[menguardingtheirownwallets]

Poilievre vs Charest: Poilievre = honest and willing to do what's right for Canada's economic future. Charest = not much better than Trudeau.

[imarsdenis]

If you want a guy like Charest (corrupt) you could vote for Justin. Might as well bring back an ethical guy like Preston or Harper. PP should win this easy. He is honest and caring.

[TheogRahoomie]

It’s simple for me. If pollievre wins I vote CPC if Charest wins I vote PPC.

[muffy]

charest you dont stant a chance against pierre .!

[DPapas]

Jean Charest has aways been a liberal. Did he wake up this morning and say I have been wrong all my life. I should have been a conservative.

[georgedavidson]

All Pierre did is try to understand the truckers . I watched the videos Why did Trudeau not go and talk to them ?..

[cosmicphoenix]

Pierre for Conservative leader and PM!

[mark-utft]

IF by some remote chance that Charest wins the leadership it will push many to the PPC.
