Alright let’s make predictions. I will make my first two now and edit this comment as I go.
1. Gaetan Malette, Conservative, Timmins-Kapuskasing-Mushkegowuk
1. former forestry executive
2. “During his political campaign and subsequent [parliamentary](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parliament) work, Malette has emphasized the importance of Northern Ontario’s [natural resource](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_resource) industries, particularly [forestry](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forestry) and [mining](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mining), and their [sustainable management](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_management). He has also focused on supporting economic development in [Indigenous](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_peoples_in_Canada) communities, addressing regional infrastructure challenges, and advocating for measures to alleviate the rising cost of living, including housing and food affordability, for residents of his riding.” screams Liberal
2. Jim Belanger, Conservative, Sudbury-Manitoulin-Nickel Belt
1. Ran for the Liberal nomination in 2015
3. Joel Godin, Conservative, Portneuf-Jacques Carter (thanks to the guy under me)
1. Threatened to leave if Poilievre won the leadership
4. Scott Aitcheson, Conservative, Parry Sound-Muskoka
1. Has always been more moderate
2. former mayor
3. pro-bipartisanship
4. believes in federal support for broadband in underserved communities
5. Eric Melillo, Conservative, Kenora-Kiiwetinoong
1. Young
2. Hasn’t been on Twitter popping off at Gladu

Pierre’s a fool, couple more forsure .
Him pushing MPs to parrot his reotric on their socail media is absolutely halirous .
Conservatives just need to split their party into two- one for the blatantly openly racists, and one for the moderates.
Floor crossing wouldn’t be happening if Pp wasn’t who they are.

With how the liberals have moved a bit to the right under carney and the Conservatives have moved future to the right to appeal to the maple MAGA voters I have noticed a lot of my family who were full on hard core conservatives for their entire lives have shifted to voting liberal
They hate P.P, they hate the identity politics and social issues they keep trying to make the centre of their politics…. They care about the economy not how people want to live their lives

It will be fascinating to watch the next CPC leadership race if Poilievre steps down. The last one was a foregone conclusion and it was never in doubt that Poilievre would win in a landslide. The next one would require a real debate about the future of the party and what direction to take it. Given there is no frontrunner or really even seriously rumored candidate it could be a very interesting race.

Not surprising, pretty much matches the number of remaining MPs who endorsed Charest for leader in 2022: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endorsements_in_the_2022_Conservative_Party_of_Canada_leadership_election#Jean_Charest](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endorsements_in_the_2022_Conservative_Party_of_Canada_leadership_election#Jean_Charest)
