Unbelievably damning results. I don't see how the CPC can continue to function as a party.

I don't see how the CPC can continue to function as a party.

That's my assesment too. There's a giant internal divide that's been sharpening ever since Harper unified the two parties. His majority gov't papered over it but the lack of any victory for over a decade has undone that. I think there's either going to be a split, or their vote share would decrease over time by means of the non-F voters leaving or not voting at all.

    Exactly. CPC leadership seems unwilling to understand that there's a difference between a big tent and a Nazi bar. Since the Reform merger the party used to be the former, but now it's the latter. It's no wonder we're seeing so many floor crossings, and it's bound to get worse and probably accelerate. This will also badly hurt their candidate recruitment efforts - who would want to put their name on the ballot for this party other than people who buy into this ideology?
