Anglo-Canadian conservativism is paradoxical/uneven in that more rooted anglo regions tend to toryism (Atlantic canada) while younger, western regions & esp. its rich wear a pantomime of being Patriot Nationalist Canucks while steering the country toward integration with the USA
This explains the sudden boost in Mark Carney's polls upon Trump's threats of annexation, as conservative voters & many market protectionist NDP voted Carney's liberal party. Accordingly, conservative gotchas of Carney's Bank of England resume only further boosted his profile.
Pierre Poilievre has since struggled to regain footing since losing not only being PM but also his riding, as his western province conservativism - which coattails on Trump's antiwoke internationale, quickly fell out of favour. He's unable to affect anything but being querelous.
Meanwhile, the Toryism found in Ontarios Rob Ford found partnership in Mark Carney. Many federal Conservative loyalists felt backstabbed by Ford & since raged at eastern provincial conservatives. They cant stand that Carney outflanked Poilievre by articulating a red tory mandate
To return to conservatives dunking on Mark Carney having dual loyalties concerning Europe.. this strategy previously devastated Michael Ignatieff to PM Harpers benefit but had backfired on Carney. Why? Ignatieff worked & built a career in the US while it were England for Carney
