QUEBEC — Conservatives gathered for the federal party's national policy convention in Quebec City today will hear not only from their leader later, but from a man who at one time wanted that job himself.
The must-see event of the day for the more than 2,000 Conservatives who travelled to Quebec City will be tonight's speech by leader Pierre Poilievre.
The party for this convention is billing him as one of its co-founders, referencing his role in the merger of the former Progressive Conservative party, which he led, with the Canadian Alliance. Delegates are also set to discuss today what changes they want to make to the Conservatives' policy handbook and constitution. Suggestions range from declarations around crime and public safety to prohibiting surgical and pharmaceutical gender-affirming care for minors and protecting the rights of those who refuse vaccination.
The last time he spoke to such a sizable room of his base was after winning the party's leadership last fall where his wife, Anaida, introduced him and stole the show for some Conservatives with her story of having arrived as a Venezuelan immigrant with her family and later pursuing a career as a political staffer.
