Journalist Justin Ling has an opinion:

"Trudeau, by the way, is going to go scorched earth against Poilievre. It will not be a campaign to govern, but a campaign to stop Poilievre from doing so.

This next election is going to be miserable. Brutal, democracy-harming, miserable."

He seems to think Poilievre is going to go full rightwing, full Trump and try to win with the crazies who would love him.  I don't know if that's a great idea, as it depends on people being sick of the "They're Hitler" strategy.

Pierre Poilievre is not a white supremacist. He's not an anti-vaxxer. He's not an extremist.

But
, up to a point, he's willing to use them to win in a brutal election. (I think he genuinely believes that giving them an outlet is a constructive thing. Which is a debatable point.)
