Oof... Just before a leadership review...
The base will see to it that he gets through that I think.

IF Carney get's his one more for a majority
And IF PP survives the review
I wonder how tenable the status quo is for some if it becomes more or less locked in for 3 more years, with a strong signal that the base/party apparatus isnt turning back

That's very possible. Im hearing his popularity amongst Con voters has dropped 10%. And that he need 80% to stay in his role ? I stand to be corrected, just something I think I heard on talk radio.
Anywho, if the CPC choose to keep him at this point they have no one to blame but themselves for their lack of ability to form Gov.
Yes. He’s far back in that regard.
I heard the same thing but that number is not written in stone. Less than 80% is definitely not good but he isn’t bound by that.
Agreed.

I could imagine a course of events where the CPC vote to keep Poilievre as leader, and that itself ends up cited by one or more disaffected MPs as a final trigger event pushing them to cross. I.e., the CPC refuses to change course so they’ve had enough.
PM Carney would probably be tickled pink to both get his majority AND have the CPC confirm Poilievre as continued leader. Politically, he would probably prefer that to the CPC sucking back, reassessing, and picking someone new who may be more effective. I could even literally see him asking other crossers to check fire until after the leadership review confirms Poilievre.

Recollect David Emerson. Some people want to serve usefully for a bit and then get out. Re-election isn't much of an influencing factor.
Poilievre is supposed to be pretty intelligent, but I wonder if he can grasp more than abstractly that the most useful people in politics are not careerists who like to play incessant political gotcha games and are obsessed with intricate parliamentary procedural manoeuvres. It would be so easy for the CPC to be the natural home of "serious people" on matters of money and infrastructure. Can there be anyone at all that he trusts advising him how bad his instincts are?
Indeed. There’s a tone and tenor that worked a year ago that doesn’t really work now. It may be that over a decade of Parliament becoming increasingly unserious, we have an opposition that calibrated itself well to oppose that. Whatever else can be said of PMMC and his style of government, initial impressions are that “unserious” is not his style. His very different tone and his more rigid approach to some issues will drive some away, but may also draw others in. It will remain to se seen how this shakes out.

If another MP crosses during the winter break, I don't see Pierre's survivability being that good in Jan, lose an election, your own seat, and hand the liberals a majority because of your leadership pushing people away? any reasonable member of the party at that point would want a change in leadership

Recall that the LPC changing leaders was the worst thing that happened to the CPC. And so, the CPC not changing leaders would be the best thing that could happen to the LPC.
The question is, then, are party members or most of them the reasonable type?

Circa 2021 - yes.
But mathematically speaking as of the 2022 Leadership race the majority of the party memberships

Future of the CPC: A (declining) majority of Conservative voters would keep Poilievre as leader in January - Angus Reid Institute
Most CPC voters believe party is in ‘right place’ politically, but others believe it’s ‘too far to the right’ December 11, 2025 – Like snow blanketing the country, a quieting has settled upon caucus rumblings over the leadership of Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre. But as the days count down...angusreid.org

apparently there are others potentially, and at this point I would believe this statement. If anyone else will cross, the time is now during the winter break
