At this point the things the Carney government has put into law (or, like bill C-22, is attempting to) are so egregious and unprecedented that I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that Poilievre would have been worse.
Impossible to deny Carney is the better politician (and that he's in the "less bad" party, whatever that means at this point) so it follows that there is less friction from both the public and in parliament

Mark Carney’s AI strategy suggests Canadians’ concerns about AI will evaporate if they become more “literate” about the technology.

Just did a solo sponsored run on perimeter and was having a real bad time of it, got killed by a rook like 15 minutes in, and all i can think now is "was my grey salvage and one (1) blue valuable worth it"
No yeah that makes sense! That's basically how it feels
We can't say "oh he would have done this, but even worse" because the things the Federal Liberals are doing have never been done before and exceed even Stephen Harper's wildest fantasies.
And, because Poilievre sits as an evil and ineffectual boogieman for him to point to, Canadians let him do it
