The joke is Poilievre running in this riding in the first place. The 100 other candidates are just making sure everyone gets the joke.

Cons still won the popular vote 33.7% to 32.6%, and that was with Trump.

Where are you even getting those numbers? Election Canada has the vote count as 41.3% for Conservatives and 43.7% for Liberals, the Conservatives absolutely did not win the popular vote.

Ah you're right, I was reading 2021 numbers, my mistake.

I don't see what that has to do with this. The joke is that Poilievre is being parachuted in to "represent" this riding that he has nothing to do with, just like the other hundred candidates he's complaining about.
