When it comes to 2025 and the possibility of new leadership for the federal Liberal Party of Canada here is what I hope for:

1. A renewed focus on electoral reform. We should always strive to have better and better representation in regards to governance. This should be an on going and evolving process.

2. A renewed focus on transparency/accountability initiatives. Government needs to be transparent and accountable. We should not be seeing in 2025 and going forward the same scandals and corruption we have seen in the past.

3. Immigration reform - It seems that the federal LPC is realizing that it needs to have a new paradigm when it comes to immigration policy. I hope the party continues to move away from allowing the exploitation of foreign workers and that exploitative framework to be further weaponized against the fair and honest bargaining power of domestic citizen workers - In particular our most vulnerable working segments like low income workers, gig workers, and other working demographics that are already disproportionately impacted by the affordability of life crisis/quality of life crisis in regards to things like the housing crisis, infrastructure strain, and wage suppression. The party needs to be less trusting and less aligned with the business lobby and their self serving policy narratives.

What would you like to see in regards to the party?

I can't imagine why he would do that to Chrystia Freeland....and with such bad timing, too!. What is going on with Trudeau???

Biden's successor said, "I love Biden, I'm basically Biden." She lost.

Trudeau's successor needs to say, "Trudeau did X and Y wrong, I will move the party in a very different direction." Preferably to the left. (Harris moved to the right and failed.)

Thoughts?

We all remember when JT said back in August of 2023 that there was no place for the Feds in housing. I was one of the people gobsmacked by the comment. I literally had a physical reaction to that comment. I sunk into a depression for at least a few months because I was so hopeful for some help in affording a home.

While I recognize how much the provincial and municipal govt’s play in housing. That comment was such a gut punch that I even considered never voting again. And honestly I questioned the relevance of democracy to ordinary people. We can vote but it’s not us who benefit from the policies of neoliberal parties. So I’ve given up on the liberal party. Probably for good.

Here in Ontario, Bonnie Crombie isnt even running as a liberal but rather running as Doug Ford! People will just reelect DoFo instead.

If you’re a young person thinking about volunteering for the LPC. Don’t. They only want your free labour in getting them elected. The liberals and conservatives don’t care about you. They’ll use you. But they don’t give a shit about you. You’re all better off with the NDP. The only decent policies by the liberals were forced by the NDP.

Chattering class is thinking he could pull it off. Then annoint Freeland to PM.

Let's fight conservatives.

Remember back in 2015 when the Liberals promised electoral reform? Any reason Trudeau and Singh shouldn't try to get this done now? With both of their parties more unpopular than ever, putting together a system that benefits all Canadians should be a no brainer. Perhaps the only downside would be that the Cons would likely immediately reverse it (though I think that would reflect badly on them).

My leader is my strength and my confidence.

For better and for worse, the choices of modern democracies are decided not by their largest numbers, but by their most committed citizens.

Accordingly, Nature on the Hill brings ordinary Canadians to Parliament Hill, to make the case for conservation: in their local communities; across our country; and around the world.

I am grateful to Nature Canada’s members for travelling to the national capital to speak truth to power, and to ensure that ministers and legislators heed the voices of the public good.

Are there any YouTubers or streamers or TikTokers who do Canadian Liberal content? Because I'm not aware of any.

I keep seeing pundits say that Kamala Harris should have went on the Joe Rogan podcast. American men overwhelmingly supported Donald Trump for president. Regardless on your views on Joe Rogan, his podcast is the number one rated on Spotify, with a large audience of men. Kamala Harris probably wouldn’t have changed some minds, but she definitely could have made her case to give Rogan’s audience something to think about, and maybe consider voting for her.

Trudeau has been going on numerous podcasts over time. Rogan himself has called Trudeau “authoritarian” and “dictator” based on what happened at the convoy. Trudeau is not popular with Canadian men or Gen Z. So going on Rogan’s podcast could be an opportunity to see him dispel any misinformation on him or make his case why he’s still worthy of support.

Would it be a good idea? Or is it just a lamb walking into the lion’s den? Trudeau has never shied away from being in an environment answering tough questions.

We have seen some announcements in regards to specifically the International Student Program, permanent resident numbers, and in general temporary resident numbers.

We know that the immigration policy of the LPC has been very controversial here in Canada.

We do have a age demographic issue to address and so immigration is invaluable to our nation. However we do have to address a framework that is ultimately unsustainable (Larger and larger populations in perpetuity). This may be a place that automation, artificial intelligence, and general technological development helps in addressing.

There has been criticisms that we have not been focusing on the type of highly skilled immigration that is needed.

There has been criticisms regarding the housing strain, infrastructure strain, and wage suppression that has disproportionately impacted vulnerable communities and the alienation it has created.

A lot of us on the left in particular are very concerned about the abuse of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program/International Mobility Program, LMIA, International Student Program, and other pathways into this nation for cheap exploitable labour.

We've seen the business lobby influence in regards to these programs not only have them massively expanded but also massively loosened in standards.

Do you think as we continue getting closer to the (most likely) 2025 election that we will see more announcements in regards to tightening of these pathways into the nation to protect both foreign workers/domestic citizen workers from these exploitative frameworks?

Additional note: It is important to recognize that although the federal Liberal Party of Canada has ultimate responsibility for these programs it was in large part due to city council/mayors and provincial ruling parties/premiers that housing was not addressed in this nation correctly. This is a level of governance that falls primarily under their jurisdiction. Additionally certain premiers have had a large influence on particular programs becoming complete dumpster fires like the diploma mill situation of the International Student Program, and the mass requests from Danielle Smith of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program/International Mobility Program to pay back her business backers.

I'm a Liberal who frankly would have liked if Trudeau had gone last year. But let's be honest with ourselves, doing a leadership change now doesn't do us any good at all. Every day that this speculation is in the news, and it hurts us.

I hate to be a downer, but we also have to face the fact that we are probably going to lose the next Federal Election. So, instead of trying to remove Trudeau now, those MPs who signed the letter that may or may not exist should let him be the sacrificial lamb and instead focus on the future and who's next.

The LPC can't be in the wilderness for 12 years like we were after Chretien/Martin, so it's time to start trying to find the person who can take down Poilievre in 29’.
