Rex Murphy: Could it be that after nearly seven years, the very “style” and “brand” of the Trudeau Liberals, which were the means of its early success, and were very much the singular property of its leader, have increasingly decayed, that the surface glow and easy flash which at least entertained in its early years, have greatly dimmed? That Poilievre offered a necessary, and by now yearned for, contrast? A seriousness in place of a show?
Can it be that it has become a toil to the everyday ear to be always inundated with self-lauding, ultra-progressive messaging, solemn declarations of “post-feminism,” cloyingly rapturous hymns to the new sacred trinity of diversity, inclusion and equity? The forced rush to embrace every new Twitter faddishness from the bottomless vaults of the social justice warriors? And could it be that the Poilievre campaign offered an outlet — not just to Conservatives — but to those simply tired of endless poses and posturings?
