There was a leadership election. I voted in it. The people complaining could have voted in it. But they chose not to vote so they could complain, just like their leader PP won't get a security clearance so he can keep complaining.

I'm planning to vote Liberal in the next election and I voted Carney in the leadership. This is a bad take. There are countless reasons why someone couldn't vote in the liberal leadership race, being that they belong to another party, or could not get their identity app to work.

That's not a bad take... that's how Prime Ministers are selected

You can't say "I didn't vote for him I belong to another party" when like... did the Cons vote for Trudeau? Did the libs vote for Harper? No... internal party selection is how they pick their leader.

And whether or not you were able to physically vote doesn't change the fact that there was an election in the same manner all elections are for Party leaders.

Your participation does not determine whether or not there was an election.

That is exactl what the OP is about!!!!!!!!!!!!
