It looks like the Conservative leadership race is over. What does that mean for Canada and the next election?

You may have missed the final Conservative Party of Canada leadership debate Wednesday night. No worries! Pierre Poilievre missed it, too. The frontrunner has such a huge lead according to every report, that he had nothing to gain by attending. How did this race go from competitive to ... not? Will Poilievre be different as CPC leader than he was as a candidate? How will this change both the Conservative party and the landscape of the next election, whenever that is? GUEST: David Moscrop, political analyst, columnist, author of Too Dumb For Democracy
