Next off the good ship Liberal, Marco Mendicino, a prominent Toronto Member of Parliament and former minister of public safety and immigration, won’t run in the next federal election, CTV News has learned.

In a lengthy written statement, Mendicino, who has represented the riding of Eglinton-Lawrence since 2015, said it’s “the right time, for me and my family” to step away, and that he will serve out the rest of the session as an MP.

“It is no secret that I have disagreed with the current direction of the federal government on our foreign policy vis-a-vis our deteriorated relations with the State of Israel, our inadequate handling of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and our enfeebled role in the Middle East.”

“As a matter of principle, I have been consistently outspoken in my condemnation of the unjust targeting of the Jewish community, which is facing a tidal wave of antisemitism.” Etc…& here we are.

(There are 338 MPs in the Commons, 153 of them Liberal. Of those, 131 come from the three regions – 75 from Ontario, 33 from Quebec and 23 from Atlantic Canada….& the balance from the three territories and four western provinces)

But….nobody knows what Trudeau is gonna do….or not do….’cuz Trudeau. He’s released a video before Christmas promoting his pick for Liberal leader & it was….Trudeau.

He might still stick around for another kick at the drink box water bottle sorta thing…so what would he run on? Climate Change? Pronouns? Or the old & unbelievably unbelievable gun control & abortion that nobody but Liberal's want to go near?

Perhaps on increasing funding for the CBC?
Something new from some other party (looking at you Jagmeet) that use to be further to the left than the Liberals?
1735953631651.jpegMaybe Trudeau will campaign on axing the tax, building the homes, fixings the budget, stopping the crimes, etc…?

Maybe the liberals just need another cabinet shuffle because it’s been the better part of a month since the last one, or at least a couple of weeks?

And still PM. . .
There’s really no mechanism to get rid of a liberal pm. There is if he was conservative, but not a liberal. Seriously.

(I know what I’m saying above sounds like bullshit but….the Conservatives removed Erin O’toole, but the Liberals can’t remove Justin Trudeau. There’s something called the “Reform Act” the other parties signed, but the Liberals didn’t/wouldn’t. That’s what I’m referring to)

Sorry, my bad, I guess the Conservatives agreed to it… but not the other parties (plural).

Doesn’t matter as long as the party leader has to sign off on nomination papers , he /she is the boss .

If I was in the Liberal party I would stay away from Carney thinking he's the guy to go with.

He's been labelled "carbon Tax Carney" and that's gonna stick.

At this point, the Liberals will NOT win, will not be the official opposition, and are gonna get smeshed.

Freeland is worse because she sat with Trudeau forever despite his shenanigans until it affected her and then bailed and people will remember that.

Honestly, they should just get rid of Trudeau and make this like a hockey team looking to re-build.

Their best shot is a total house cleaning. There isn't a single current Liberal party member that doesn't have Trudope stink all over them. That includes unofficial members like Carney.

In all honesty, they should keep Trudeau, get themselves crushed and then clean house. Any patch job now just prolongs the agony and taints anybody who is added with Trudeau mess.

Anyone with any affiliation with this government for the last nine years, who kept their mouth shut during all the scandals and shenanigans, is tainted. Every last one of them, & that includes the NDP that kept them in power for the last two years, & Carney who’s been attached officially unofficially to the Liberals, circling like a vulture for Freeland’s job, then Trudeau’s job….& what will be Poilievre’s job.
MPs say they still have no indication of the prime minister's intentions. One MP told CBC News they would not be surprised if Trudeau intends to stay on despite efforts to remove him, etc…

Liberal national caucus chair Brenda Shanahan called the meeting for Wednesday, Jan. 8, according to an email sent to Liberal MPs and shared with CBC News on Friday. It is scheduled to run as long as six hours.

Multiple Liberal MPs hope it will bring to an end the months of private and public efforts to try to force Trudeau to step down???

Sounds like a trusting bunch, with their own MP’s (it takes a thief to catch a thief?), as they are saving the planet, one caucus meeting at a time.

It’s over for the Liberals, their time is up, and Justin Trudeau needs to call an election, take his shellacking and let his party begin rebuilding without him.

Despite Trudeau’s delusional idea that he is Canada’s saviour, he will not be leading that new government and neither will anyone associated with his party.

Replacing Trudeau as Liberal leader won’t help the current governing party in the next election and, in fact, it might make things worse…for the Liberal Party, not Canadians in general.
