Top Conservative strategist says Poilievre needs to urgently pivot or he will lose

4. The first time I saw one of his ads, I was immediately alienated.

Vague drivel with impossible expectations. Most glaringly...how would he, or anyone, bring down the cost of housing to an "affordable" level? The only possible way would be to somehow crash the market, because slight adjustments in taxes on building materials and minorly adjusting property tax mill rates would bring only small changes, not exactly a big help when the average price of a single-family home here in Vancouver is north of $2 million. Allegedly (to hear him tell it), his "common sense budget" will also "stop crime." Criminals need only the common sense guidance of a saintly politician to find a better way to live.

Besides, property taxes are a civic and provincial domain, not federal. "Common sense budgets" virtually never contain much common sense at all. I only hope he continues to get all kinds of "helpful" endorsements from the Drumpf administration. This brotherly outreach is about as helpful as him going into a town hall meeting in the obvious latter stages of leprosy.
