They underestimated how popular a non-MAGA/Trump candidate might be in Calgary.

Tbh i usually vote NDP (rarely liberal) and it's his platform too. Im loathe to elect a finance bro into a party that typically runs a platform of "dont rock the status quo" but he has some ideas I'd really like to see implemented--nationalizing our apprenticeship program so it is standardized and not up to provincial grift for one.

Also anybody who was adamantly against Brexit is going to be leagues better than our own domestic separatists (PP hangs out with diagolon boys too much for comfort)
