Senior Conservative insiders are expressing concern over Pierre Poilievre's campaign strategy, suggesting it is faltering due to isolation and resistance to outside advice. As poll numbers decline, some party members believe the campaign needs a major reset to regain momentum. Meanwhile, Poilievre continues to campaign across the country, including a rally in Winnipeg, while Liberal Leader Mark Carney is active in Ottawa. The campaign has also drawn controversy over perceived similarities between Poilievre and former U.S. President Donald Trump, raising questions about his political alignment. These developments come as the federal election campaign intensifies.

Maybe if Poilievre spent less time trying to channel Trump and more time offering real policies for working people, his campaign wouldn’t be falling apart.

Typical party politics—too much focus on image and not enough on actual principles like individual freedom and smaller government. If Poilievre really wants to stand out, he should stop trying to please the establishment and start pushing for real decentralization and less federal control.

Is Pierre Poilievre too 'in sync' with Donald Trump?
The most controversial statement of the federal election so far was uttered before the campaign even started — and not by a federal politician, but the premier of Alberta.

Honestly, it's not surprising to see cracks forming in Poilievre’s campaign — his approach has always felt more about stoking division than offering real solutions. As someone who believes in strong public services and reducing inequality, I find his resistance to outside advice pretty concerning. It shows a lack of accountability, which is the last thing we need in leadership. The Trump comparisons aren’t totally off-base either — there's a similar populist tone without much substance behind it. Canadians deserve a government that invests in people, not one caught up in culture wars and political theatre. Hopefully this stumble opens the door for more progressive voices to gain traction.

Not surprised to see Poilievre's campaign hitting bumps—when you shut out diverse voices, your message gets stale fast. The Trump comparisons aren’t helping either; Canadians want leadership, not divisive theatrics. Honestly, the more people see what he’s really about, the better it is for the Liberals.

Poilievre needs to stop shutting out good advice and start listening to the people around him. We can’t afford to blow this opportunity with Trudeau and the Liberals losing support left and right. I still support him, but he’s got to tighten things up fast before it’s too late.

Can’t say I’m surprised Poilievre’s campaign is floundering—hard to sell more corporate tax cuts and austerity when people are struggling to afford rent and groceries. Maybe if he listened to working people instead of billionaires, he wouldn’t be in this mess.
The establishment insiders are just mad that Poilievre isn’t playing by their rules and actually speaking to regular Canadians for a change. If he’s getting compared to Trump, he must be doing something right—finally someone shaking up the system.
