    Would be pretty good to also take a note from the Dems and have Trudeau step down for the next election.

    As a Canadian, I’m over him. I’d never vote for PP, but I’d like to see some new options please.

      Fair.

      The challenge is the LPC doesn’t have much bench strength. Like the Democrats, they don’t tend to cultivate personalities, and the CPC has spent the last several years hillarying Chrystia Freeland, which is a shame.

      I’ve heard rumblings of snoozers and centrists in an attempt to convince voters that the LPC is “serious”, which will work about as well as it did for Dion or Ignatieff.

      Voters aren’t really interested in calm, sensible governance. Oh, they say they are, but on the left at least they need to feel inspired, which Trudeau can’t do anymore and Singh never could.
