The creation of the PPC has created the blue divorce, the CPC as long as O'Toole remains leader will continue to shift to the center to be more attractive to left and right of center voters. There is far more votes to be gained there, then there is catering to the far right and the PPC. The CPC has 18 months until we will likely see another election, in that time the CPC needs a new strategy for the GTA, Montreal, and Vancover, if they can't make inroads in those areas, they have no chance.
The CPC took a big step towards the center, but they are not quite there yet.
They need to stop being scary when it comes to abortion, and if that means whipping votes it means whipping votes.
They need to stop trying to undo LPC gun regulations. Just maintain the status quo.
They need to fully embrace fighting climate change. Reducing emissions targets is not going to fly in urban Canada. And leave the carbon tax alone, carbon credits it tacky. Look at the UK Conservative party and their climate crusade as a inspiration. In comparison, O'Toole and the CPC not once tweeted about climate. They definitely tweeted a lot about other topics.
And once childcare is in place, leave it alone.
Pretty much challenge/copy the LPC platform with a less tainted leader than Trudeau.
I think most of the country is more or less in line with what the LPC is proposing, at least in the urban centers, but are sick of Trudeau at this point.
