Although the flight surfaces on the CRJ are hydraulically actuated, there is no computer in between the pedals and the control column deciding weather the crew are flying safely or not and maybe just making matters worse such as on other FBW aircraft I know. So the flight surfaces should have done exactly as commanded.
Assuming that the linkage was not jammed by a foreign object such as a tool or frozen water/deicing fluid.
