L'inélégance spectaculaire de Stephen Harper (Le Journal de Montréal)

En appuyant officiellement Pierre Poilievre, Stephen Harper assène un coup monumental de Jarnac à son rival Jean Charest.

[...] C’est de cette façon que nous gagnerons la prochaine élection fédérale.» On savait aussi qu’il préfère Poilievre, son protégé issu de la même droite dure albertaine. Il faut dire que M. Harper n’a jamais fait dans la dentelle. Dans sa vidéo, Stephen Harper louange son ex-ministre Pierre Poilieve. Il le présente comme «le critique des libéraux de Justin Trudeau le plus éloquent et le plus efficace de notre parti». Ses «valeurs conservatrices», insiste-t-il sous forme de pointe implicite à Jean Charest, sont «solides». Pour M. Poilievre et ses fidèles – dont les camionneurs du soi-disant «convoi de la liberté» –, le péché mortel de Jean Charest est d’avoir été chef des anciens «progressistes» conservateurs, et chef des libéraux au Québec. Pour Jean Charest, c’est le coup de grâce. Il s’est donc limité à dire que Stephen Harper faisait un choix «personnel». La réalité est que M. Charest sait fort bien que ce choix est politique et idéologique.

Chez Poilievre, on peut se vanter d’avoir l’appui d’Harper », analyse celui qui est maintenant vice-président à l’agence de relations publiques Tact. Mais d’après un ex-stratège conservateur, il s’agit d’un « coup de circuit » pour le camp Poilievre. C’est aussi ce que plusieurs coups de sonde tendent à démontrer.

L'ancien premier ministre conservateur Stephen Harper a appuyé le candidat à la course à la chefferie du Parti conservateur du Canada (PCC), Pierre.

Dans sa vidéo, M. Harper affirme le contraire. «M. Harper et ses soutiens seront toujours les bienvenus au PCC, a mentionné M. Charest dans sa déclaration. Stephen Harper a déjà réussi à unir le Parti conservateur du Canada. À titre de chef du PCC, je m’engage à en faire de même». La course à la direction de l’ancien parti de M. Harper a été décrite comme une bataille pour l’âme même du parti et a parfois donné lieu à des attaques personnelles entre les candidats. Stephen Harper affirme que M. Poilievre a passé les dernières années dans l’opposition à être le «critique le plus virulent et le plus efficace» du parti envers le gouvernement de Justin Trudeau. Il a fait l’éloge de Stephen Harper en disant qu’il «a mené le Canada à travers une période économique turbulente, a équilibré le budget et rendu la vie plus abordable pour les familles canadiennes.» L'ancien premier ministre conservateur Stephen Harper a appuyé le candidat à la course à la chefferie du Parti conservateur du Canada (PCC), Pierre Poilievre.

Poilievre reçoit un cadeau du ciel (Le Journal de Québec)

Lors des deux dernières courses à la direction du Parti conservateur du Canada, l'ancien premier ministre Stephen Harper était resté très discret.

Faire une annonce de la sorte à la fin du mois de juillet, ce n’est pas anodin. De plus, cette sortie de M. Harper arrive à un moment critique dans la course. La fragmentation de cette coalition de droite est toujours un sujet d’actualité, mais là, c’est encore plus vrai que jamais.

The former prime minister has maintained a low public profile — until now —since resigning as the party's leader in 2015.

“In my opinion, there may be a little bit of payback time as well.” He stayed out of the 2017 leadership race that saw Saskatchewan MP Andrew Scheer narrowly beat Quebec’s Maxime Bernier (who went on to create the far-right People’s Party). Harper also refrained from publicly endorsing a candidate in 2020, when Erin O’Toole was elected Tory leader. OTTAWA—Stephen Harper’s public return to Conservative politics — in the form of his endorsement of leadership contender Pierre Poilievre — caught a lot of attention.

Former PM Stephen Harper endorses Pierre Poilievre for leadership (National Observer)

Former Conservative prime minister Stephen Harper has endorsed Pierre Poilievre to be the party's next leader.

"Conservatives only win when we are united. Stephen Harper was successful in uniting the Conservative Party of Canada. As the leader of the CPC, I commit to doing the same," Charest's statement said. The former prime minister says Poilievre not only has the strongest support within the party's caucus of any candidate in the race, but is popular with existing members and is bringing in droves of new ones.

"It's a strong field, but one candidate has garnered disproportionate attention," the former Prime Minister said. "Pierre Poilievre was a strong Minister in my government. But I thought you would like to know what my opinion actually is."

Don Braid (The Calgary Herald) on Danielle Smith turning her love of fringe views to cancer care: “UCP leadership candidate Danielle Smith’s dabbles in quackery are sometimes almost funny. Those who suffered at the hands of their Catholic perpetrators, and, those who then suffered at home, in their own personal hell brought on them by survivors who took their anguish out on those they loved the most. The Globe and Mail Editorial Board on whether hockey and Canada would be better without Hockey Canada?: “Hockey Canada, back on its heels over allegations that players in its charge were involved in group sexual assaults in 2003 and 2018, and facing a second round of grilling from a parliamentary committee this week, on Monday did what organizations often do when cornered. Welcome to the year 2017, Hockey Canada: only five more years to go.” The Decibel is here.

“An endorsement by Harper is a powerful signal within the Conservative movement. He said Mr. Harper may see Mr. Poilievre as a devoted ally during his time as prime minister. Right now, [Mr. Poilievre’s] job is to become the leader, and so he’s going after the membership, and I think the membership is supportive of Stephen Harper in large part,” Mr. Plett said. “It’s a big honour to have his support in this leadership race,” his statement said. Mr. Harper has been the only member of the new party to serve as prime minister. A spokesperson for Ms. Lewis’s campaign declined comment. “I think he’s got a good base of support and I think Stephen Harper’s support will give them, definitely, an added boost.” “The Harper endorsement is an acknowledgment that Poilievre is the likely leadership winner and Harper legacy inheritor,” Mr. Nanos, the chief data scientist at Nanos Research, said in a statement. If I was on the fence, it most certainly would.” “I believe he wants the next leader of the party to be one of the people on his side of the agenda when everything was happening, and I have no problem with that,” Mr. Reynolds said. In it, Mr. Harper said the five candidates in the race constitute a “strong field,” but Mr. Poilievre, whom he described as a “strong minister” in his government, is the best prospect for leadership largely because of his policies, talents as a critic and his popularity among the caucus and existing and new members. Mr. Harper was the first leader of the current Conservative Party of Canada, formed in 2003 with the merger of the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada and the Canadian Alliance. He was prime minister from 2006 until Justin Trudeau led the Liberals to victory in 2015.

Andrew Scheer’s and Erin O’Toole’s problem (especially O’Toole’s) was appealing too little to the CPC base while simultaneously not picking up enough moderate voters. Moreover, I also think Poilievre has a far better chance of winning a general election than Liberal, lefty and “progressive” media analysts believe. Those 100 points are distributed according to the percentage of the vote won by each candidate in that riding. But the CPC’s points system is not entirely democratic. The frontrunner’s campaign sold nearly half (46%) of the 675,000 memberships sold in this race. Or at least it would assure Poilievre a win in September if the CPC were using a democratic system for selecting its next leader.
