Rougier said the tone of the letter was “derogatory and belittling, unbecoming and petty,” and submitted that the Poilievre campaign should be fined by LEOC for its behaviour. .
But in this new populist era, where expertise is a handicap and you win by promising to smash-the-machine, Poilievre is valorized as a strong leader whose limitations in being able to live up to any of his promises are overlooked. But there is a worrying lack of discipline about any candidate and campaign that lashes out in all directions, all the time.

No allowance is made for the complicated trade-offs and compromises that are inevitable in government.
