EZRA LEVANT | Who won last night's Conservative Party leadership debate?

GUEST HOST: DAVID MENZIES

Did you catch the Conservative leadership debate last night? If you didn’t, here’s the post-game summary: judging by applause, the clearcut winner was surely Pierre Poilievre; judging by boos, jeers, and even downright derisive laughter, the definite loser was Jean Charest. No surprise there, really.

But there was also a candidate who lost the debate due to default given that he was a no-show: that would be sneaky Patrick Brown, Brampton’s full-time mayor and part-time Zamboni inspector.
