If Trudeau was removed for any particular reason, haven’t paid any attention to the libs since the little guy from shawinigan was in power. Declan ---

The little guy from Shawinigan is still breathing… Honestly, this is quite a WTF question. Most of the attention on party leadership is focused on the Conservatives now that Harper is leaving the building, and some on Mulcair for _not_ leaving the building. There’s even a case for Elizabeth May to step down purely on a results basis. But Trudeau after his epic win? That’s the last thing anyone is thinking about. ---

Elizabeth May for Speaker of the House! 🙂
