Liberal MP Wayne Long from New Brunswick says party needs new leadership
A Liberal MP who is not seeking re-election has sent an e-mail to fellow caucus members calling for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to step down as party leader.
“After reflecting on this week’s defeat in Toronto–St Paul’s and then seeing the response, I want you to know clearly and directly where I stand,” Long wrote to the caucus in the email, obtained by The Canadian Press. In January, Newfoundland Liberal MP Ken McDonald called for a leadership review, comments he later walked back.
Cabinet members say Trudeau remains the best possible leader to take on Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, who they portray as a phoney career politician eager to usher in program cuts. “We will never stop working and fighting to make sure you have what you need to get through these tough times. My focus is on your success and that’s where it’s going to stay.”
