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.

Defeat and end the Trudeau disaster, there is more than enough time for a leadership contest, it WILL invigorate the Liberals.

The Biden Adminsttratuon WOULD LOVE for Canada to begin exporting CLEAN new energy, Biden CLOSED coal, all of it.

The 35 billion in EXPORT expansion is NOT going to serve the US.

Neither argument is useful.

Canada burned 3 centuries of logging's trees in one summer.

30 Billion Trees.

This year's fire is πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ history's 3rd largest

Biden CLOSED coal, all of it.

No he didn't.

In response to a lawsuit from environmentalists, the Biden administration is ending new leases for coal mining on federal lands in the most productive part of America's top coal producing state. Source

Can you please provide the link for this data?

And you never answered this question ... I'd also like you to tell us who you will vote for instead of the Liberals.

I have pinned some posts on the fires, though I cant imagine how you know anything about Canada and not know Canada burned 18 million hectares of forest last year, more than Five Million this year.

Trudeau resigning allows the Liberal Party to end oil expansion begin building new energy to replace oil and failing hydro.

The leadership contest will be good for the LPC and Canada.
Maybe even stop PP

Biden closed coal burning electrical generation during COP, 20% of US electricity

Did you know Hydro was failing?

Global warming which is turning Canada's forests into kindling, ready to burn into the roots, ready to die standing, is from heat evaporating soil and reduced rainfall.

That's the sine qua non of #climate warming. Also means that Canada is no longer Exporting Hydro Electricity to the US but is IMPORTING energy as oil fed climate warming empties dams, reduces power.

We MUST build solar wind and batteries, end subsidising oil, or we don't make it.
