I mean, they did manage 5% of the popular vote, which is more than double what the Greens pulled off and pretty close to the Bloc (BQ's a weird comparison to make, for obvious reasons, but I'll make it anyway), and much higher than the 1.6% they pulled off in 2019. They're almost certainly never going to run the country, but they're not that small a minority

They don't have concentrated support. They're a party based on conspiracy theories and nationalism. It's a common thread in societies that 5 to 10% of people tend to be nuts, that was their target audience.

It isn't like the Green party, which still won a few seats due to support being concentrated in certain ridings.

The PPC will never win a seat unless they somehow convince a concentrated riding to vote for them. Which they won't. The closest they got was Bernier's riding, and the guy who beat him had more than twice the votes Bernier did.
