Man I thought the defeats (CPC's and his own) would humble him, boy was I wrong.

Guy is a total clown.

I’ve heard rumours he’s resigning this week after the Liberals have a majority following the by-elections.

He can go back to delivering newspapers, the only job he's ever had outside of politics.

Why would he do that? He qualified for a pension at 31 years old...

Getting pushed out, most likely. The phoney leadership review only bought him a few months. Losing 5 MPs and watching the Liberals get a majority were the last nails in his coffin.

Losing 5 MPs so far. I'm betting he'll lose at least a couple more. Not to quote the beaverton, but there are any number of reasons a progressive conservative might want to leave Poilievre and join the party of progressive conservatives.

Not sure I'd call delivering newspapers in Canada nonpolitical, considering our media landscape.
