"LeBlanc said he thinks the party needs to reposition itself and become more centrist.

"Perhaps, in recent campaigns, we have drifted from that pragmatic centre of Canadian politics and we haven't given some of the traditional Liberal voting blocs an enthusiastic reason to support us," LeBlanc said.

LeBlanc also said the Green Shift — Liberal Leader Stéphane Dion's carbon tax plan — represented "a major challenge for us last time" and will not be part of his campaign."


More here from Adam Huras on Dominic Leblanc's "leadership" story:

Adam Huras on X: "FULL STORY... LeBlanc won’t seek Liberal party leadership, will fight Trump instead Seven or eight sources, lots of interesting stuff, including how Dominic was saying privately that he would run just a few weeks ago. https://t.co/tVQVXJ0uyN #NB" / X

Could Dominic Leblanc lead the party? Yes.


One thing we do know this week ... Justin Trudeau confirmed that he is not going to run for election again in his long held riding of Papineau PQ.. which is not surprising.. is it?
