Don't trust O'Toole

8. The first priority

when a Prime Minister is sworn in is to get re-elected. Defunding a national icon like the CBC will ensure defeat. The CPC supports a price on carbon but the proceeds go into a low carbon savings account. Pipelines are political dynamite but I don't hear many offers by Canadians to give their jobs to workers in Saskatchewan and Alberta who will be left unemployed if they can't get their resources to market. The CPC's policy on medically assisted dying is to make it a free vote.
Regardless of the rhetoric any political leader presents, governing leave a very narrow range of options, whether the Prime Minister is Liberal, CPC or NDP. Just like US politics, if a Prime Minister or President tries to drift outside that rang, they pay a heavy price. ie. the previous US administration. In the unlikely event Mr. O'Toole defeats Prime Minister Trudeau, you won't see much actual difference except in style.
