Who actually wants her? Electing Trudeau's lapdog to lead the Liberals will just torpedo the party.

I'm still excited for debates. It will be interesting to see how the three of them fair. Carney is in the lead for sure, but having challengers is a test for the more important election.

What three are you talking about?

Haha, apparently Gould is also running. I didn't know who she was either.

I am familiar with who the LPC has as House Leader. Your comment didn't clarify which three out of ~half dozen declared candidates. The article's about Freeland, your comment referenced Carney. but there wasn't a third candidate in the discussion.
