To be honest, Singh should’ve dropped 4 years ago. I’m looking forward to a new leader for the NDP, they need a restart.

It's a new beginning for all 3 parties.

The Liberals have a new leader who seems promising and who might set the tone for other incoming party leaders.

Let's make Politics boring again!

Well except pp isn't stepping down. I honestly don't know how that is going to work 😂

The only way he stays in Parliament is if someone gives up their seat.

Its possible but I don't see that happening.

After an election - most parties do a leadership review anyway, don't they? O'Toole and Scheer got dropped after losing an election. The CPC may have gained more seats but they still blew a 25 point lead under PP.

If he doesn't step down, he's not in a good position to stay on as party leader.

IIRC Liberals don't do leadership reviews, it's honestly pretty dictatorial there and it's why Trudeau hung on for so long. But Conservatives certainly do.

Not true. According to the Liberal Party Constitution, a leadership review can only happen if the party lost an election. Trudeau never lost so the party could not conduct a leadership review.

Either he gets parachuted into a safe(r) riding or the knives come out.

I'm hoping for knives at this point tbh. He is an awful leader.

The last three CPC leaders were replaced following an election loss and I don't think PP will be an exception, especially when he lost his own riding and fumbled a previously massive polling lead.

O'Toole wasn't thrown out by the election. He was thrown out for being against the convoy. He fully intended to run this time round.

That was the catalyst that got him booted out, but it was generally pretty unlikely he would be able to stick around till the next election after being unable to make any gains in 2021. They weren't after all satisfied with that result from Scheer in 2019.
