PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

[Admiral Beez]

I suspect we will see many leadership candidates who lack the Trudeau government baggage. Mark Carney and former BC Premier Christy Clark are considered likely candidates.

The sooner Mark Carney's name is smudged out of our collective thoughts the better. The man's never held a seat in any elected office nor ever run for an election, and we're going to drop him into the leader's seat as a presumptive PM? Have Carney contest a seat in the upcoming election and then (after whomever replaces Trudeau is destroyed) enter is his name for leadership contention.

One potential candidate who I think would be formidable is former Innovation Minister Navdeep Bains.

That would be noteworthy to have Sikhs as leaders of both the NDP and Liberals. I recall Trudeau, IIRC jibbing Modi that he had more Sikh MPs than he did. Let's toss out Pollivre for Deputy Leader Tim Uppal for a near complete set.

It’s going to be a disaster for the Liberals next election, so many of the Liberal MPs jockeying for the leadership are going to first have to keep their seats.

Anita Anand is likely to lose her seat in Oakville, Freeland will face heavier competition from the NDP and Liberals in University-Rosedale, and François-Philippe Champagne could be vulnerable in his Quebec riding.

Finding a “safe Liberal” riding for Carney to run in will be no small feat.
