Is there a breakdown of the best and worst ridings (so far) by party? Especially interested in PPC for their best ridings.

PPC:

Portage-Lisgar (MB) - 20%
Beauce (QC) - 18% (Maxime Bernier)
Provencher (MB) - 16%

They didn't do as well (~10%) in rural AB.

Any others that were high?  I think they got 14% in Timmins-James Bay, which is surprising although it is more a faux-left riding (Union guys not progressives).

No one mentioning Carol Hughes?  Fully bilingual, was Deputy Speaker of the House.  Would do well in Quebec (has that Quebecker attitude even though she's from Kap, ON).

Definitely possible. If that's the case the days of Charlie Angus could be numbered when Poilievre becomes Tory leader.
Have you heard Poilièvre speak French?  He sounds like an anglophone kid in a French Immersion class speaking.  Don't let the French last name fool you.  And one of the biggest turn offs for Francophones hors and in Quebec is an English person trying to speak French. His "French" while probably more "correct" or hyper-formal than most Franco-Ontariens, lacks their "native-slang" fluency for lack of a better term. He says "Jamais" as Jamé, "Je fais" (fé, native Speakers in Canada say "Fè", "jamè"), Je vais (Says it :Je vé..hyper formal in Canada native French speakers use Je vè or even the incorrect Je va (orally).  Let's just say Charlie won't have to worry about Poillièvre having the same Francophone appeal that Bernier has in these communities because of his mother tongue.

Probably a mistake to be lumping the BQ with the left at this point.
What makes you say that?

Probably a mistake to be lumping the BQ with the left at this point.

BQ is a tough one to pin down as I wouldn't describe them as right wing, but not really left wing like were under Duceppe.  Strongest point is exurbs and rural areas which are not exactly hotbeds of left wing thinking.  Areas like Hochelaga, Sherbrooke, or Laurier-Sainte Marie which Duceppe won no longer going BQ.  At same time struggle in Chaudiere-Appalaches which is without question the most conservative part of Quebec.
This is an interesting logic.  Are we defining where political parties stand based on the historic voting patterns of the regions that voted for them?  I'm more interested in the policies that have changed that make them no longer left wing?
