Pierre Poilievre’s looming ascension to Tory leader has Liberals — and some Conservatives — wary about what comes next

OTTAWA — Although three weeks remain in the Conservative party’s leadership race, the talk in political circles has already shifted to what’s next.

Pierre Poilievre’s victory is being treated as a foregone conclusion by his rivals and allies alike. He has upwards of $5 million in the bank, more than 300,000 party members signed up behind his cause, and the crowds turning up at get-out-the-vote events are assuaging earlier fears that all of the new members he’s recruited wouldn’t turn out to vote.

I think it’s almost 48 hours since the last Poilievre hit piece, if so that would be a new record.
