People don't talk about it much, but a significant chunk of the NDP base (~10%, if I remember correctly) jumped to the Conservatives, not the Liberals, in the last election. Some of these numbers might be them returning?

Could be. PP ran on some pro-labour economic populism that you'd expect from a demsoc NDP that we didn't have at the time. I could see some people giving that a try in the hope he was not lying (he was) instead of the banker. That wouldn't be an unreaaonable move. Now that demsoc economic populism is the NDP program, they can stop taking the placebo. 😅
