A throne speech and a rejigged front bench are unlikely to convince Canadians that the Liberals have the energy and ideas needed to move Canada forward
The government is also mired in serious controversies. One involves alleged Liberal indifference to warnings the Chinese government had interfered in recent elections. That the government has still not announced a public inquiry into those allegations only encourages where-there’s-smoke-there’s-fire speculation as to why.
I suspect Mr. Poilievre would rather have Mr. Trudeau stay. The core of the Conservative Leader’s message to Canadians is rooted in the vilification of “Justinflation” Trudeau. Were he suddenly to find himself across the aisle from a new Liberal leader – such as former Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney, Defence Minister Anita Anand or Industry Minister François-Philippe Champagne – he might find that message harder to sell.
The Conservative Leader has ditched his glasses and taken to dressing more casually. A better approach would include substantive policies to convince people he would lead a sensible, competent government. His proposed “blue seal” test to expedite the licensing of foreign-trained health professionals is a good start. More, please.
