Standing by the docks in downtown Nanaimo, B.C., on Monday morning, Liberal MP Alexandre Mendes told Radio-Canada she came to this week’s Liberal caucus retreat with a message from her constituents: “dozens and dozens” of them were “adamant” the Liberal Party needed a new leader.
Speaking later to CBC’s Power & Politics, Mendes said it was hard to pinpoint a specific reason or issue to explain her constituents’ feelings for the prime minister.
“It’s a very generalized … ‘we’re tired of his face’ kind of thing,” she explained.
If I were an MP and this was my party’s official line, I would be very worried.
You need people to want to vote for you, if you don’t give then something they’ll just not vote, like in Ontario, which only boosts the CPC who are energized and angry.
