Most of it comes from the Conservative party and their alignment with the far-right and amplifying that up and limiting it to foreign interference is missing the big picture and seems to be a way to shift blame. This is what happens when you flirt with the far-right.

But it is also coddling the far-right and like Manning said wanting to harness it. Well we have seen what coddling and giving oxygen to the far-right means which is businesses being attacked, people ramming gates and death threats and seeking to overthrow gov't.
But the Conservatives are palling around with the far-right, racists, homophobes, those who wish to hang progressive politicians, those who wish to scapegoat and force people out of politics. So no the Conservatives and PPC are 100% responsible. Who will hold them to account?!
But it is sites such as Rebel, True North and Post Millennial who truly want the overthrowing of gov't around the world. They gleefully post videos and also crave that, and the Conservative party goes on those networks to take interviews. That is unacceptable.
But I believe this quote probably defines today's conservative party which sought to push envelope and still does and wants to weaponize their friends in the Freedom Convoy and now can be viewed very seriously as a party which opposes the rule of law and democracy now.

We need to lay down some facts in response to Poilievre's tweet where he said Harper had strong economic growth and did a great job in power. The facts beg to differ and why Harper was removed from power. Here is my thread to outline some clear facts. /1

Harper growth record worst since R.B. Bennett

"This government has only one prescription for everything – austerity, austerity and more austerity." /2
"That’s the message coming from the Bank of Canada this week. But it seems lost on this government. Mr. Harper has the worst economic growth record since the dismal days of R.B. Bennett." /3

The new Liberal government is set to reverse controversial labour laws passed by Stephen Harper's Conservatives in the last Parliament, but the Tories are already signalling they could use their majority in the Senate to block passage of the legislation.
Conservatives even considered killing the bill.

But Gérard Deltell, the Conservatives' labour critic, said his party would consider asking Tory senators to kill the bill.
"We'll fight for that for sure," Deltell said. "The second chamber will do its job. We are sure that senators will do what they have to do for that."

So whenever you see Conservatives say that they stand for workers, their first acts were to be anti-union.
