Nepean MP Chandra Arya says he's been informed by the Liberal Party of Canada he's not permitted to run in the leadership contest to replace Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

In a statement posted to social media, Arya said the party notified him on Saturday.

"While I await their official communication, I am carefully considering my next steps," Arya said. "This decision raises significant questions about the legitimacy of the leadership race and, by extension, the legitimacy of the next Prime Minister of Canada."😳

(Guess my choice is out, so I don’t have to pay one of my 14-year-old grandchildren to create a liberal party membership)

Arya was one of seven leadership hopefuls who reported they submitted their nomination packages by the Liberal Party's deadline of 5 p.m. ET on Thursday and met the first financial hurdle to enter the race, which is $50,000.00 as the first instalment.

After the deadline passed on Thursday, party spokesperson Parker Lund told CBC News the party will approve candidates "within 10 days."
Elections Canada will also need to approve them, he said, which could take several days…but this guy was weeded out by the Liberals before that.

“While I await their official communication, I am carefully considering my next steps,” Arya said in the post. “This decision raises significant questions about the legitimacy of the leadership race and, by extension, the legitimacy of the next Prime Minister of Canada.” Arya, who has represented the riding of Nepean since he was first elected in 2015, had put his name forward as a candidate in early January after the resignation of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau…or the commitment towards eventually resigning after the Liberals select a new Lib-Leader, etc….

Carney is another elitist douchebag who came for the ego stroke. A central banker with a Carbon Tax fetish. Nice pick. The liberals are so fucked, and Carney will fall on Justin's sword and become yesterday's news. After four years, he will leave politics.

In 20 years, when we're all dead, and the CBC is still going strong, they'll invite Justin back to explain how he saved us all from Covid 19 during his "just watch me" moment. And Liberals will rejoice.

No one will remember Carney except those close to him, but in politics, nah.
He's the drunken one-night stand after getting out of a decade-long toxic relationship with an incompetent narcissist.

I can’t understand how this supposed intelligent economist ( if that means anything ) can’t see that the country has no appetite for the Liberals at present and he won’t change that , What was he offered , or who is advising him ?

I think he is clearly an intelligent guy, but politically very stupid. If he wanted to be PM so bad, he should have let Chrystia fall on Justin's sword, and he could have come in to rebuild and re-brand the party if he's got eight or twelve years. That seems to be the magic number when a party nose dives into the ground.

What pisses me off about this is how badly they've fucked up this country.
And that people think they didn't.
They created crisis after crisis. In the CAF, in the RCMP.
They ruined people's careers.
They pledged billions to identity politics.
They pitted Canadians against Canadians.
Our Armed Forces are in utter ruin. They're lowering medical standards to try to increase recruitment. I'm just spitballing here, but I thought that recruitment would be way up if we had some interesting equipment. Instead of 50-year-old jets and medium artillery, who wants to join the military when you gotta hit the foodbank to feed your family? They cannibalized our military, stripping units of their weapons. If you had six guns in your battery, now you have three. Thanks for the tanks and all those APCS and trucks. Oh by the way, we're cutting your operating budget by a billion. Here, we have some rainbow flags and a woke agenda for you.
I hope they lose party status.
Fucking Cult.

I think that Justin Trudeau believes he has the right to decide when to leave, and too bad for the MPs in his party and the Canadian public.
I mean, really, who the fuck do we think we are?
He's the chosen one.
MP Chandra Arya said in a social media post he was informed over the weekend by the Liberal party that he would not be permitted to take part in the leadership race.

While Arya said he was “carefully considering” his next steps, he said the decision to exclude him “raises significant questions about the legitimacy of the leadership race and, by extension, the legitimacy of the next Prime Minister of Canada.”

(The Liberal party would not specifically say why Arya was disqualified)
This is utterly insane that in 2025 the leader of a G7 country will be picked via an online voting system run by a political party with no external oversight even as we face the spectre of foreign interference.

We face the real possibility that our next PM will be chosen by 14-year-old non-citizens of Canada or perhaps by Conservative Party members who signed up to become Liberals for this race. Given that the voting system, yet to be announced, will be online or telephone-based and that we could also have bot farms in Russia, India or China choosing our next prime minister.

I'm considering entering the leadership race along with everybody else.
Do you have enough skeletons in your closet to qualify thought? Would the Liberal Party respect you enough without them? Chandra Arya was snipped out, & I’ve never heard of him before a week ago let alone any scandals he’s been directly involved in….

Skeletons in my closet? Probably not.

Will corpses in my backyard do?

Depends on the circumstances, but I think you might’ve missed the deadline to enter the Liberal leadership race…so now you’re down to “purchasing” your free membership to the liberal party, & casting your vote (or votes, in the elimination process) until only Mark Carney is left.

Liberals have been hopeful that their leadership race, especially the entrance of Crown Prince Mark Carney, would boost their fortunes. While that may happen one day, it’s not happening now, according to the numbers.

Leger did ask voters whether they supported Carney, Chrystia Freeland, Karina Gould or someone else to become the next Liberal leader, which by extension will also make them prime minister. Among Liberal voters, Carney was picked by 57%, Freeland by 17%, and Gould by 4%.
