Pierre Poilievre just cruised through his leadership review, but is the party really buying what he’s selling? Noor Azrieh goes inside the Conservative convention in Calgary, from the polished speeches on stage to the simmering anger offstage.
Along the way: separatists working the floor, influencers commanding the crowd, and a party trying to sell hope to a base still fuelled by grievance.
