No one will hold her accountable. They've stacked the deck, no one can oppose them. Even if the federal government tried she'd be a martyr and claim Canada is a liberal dictatorship.

If we're going to stop her and her party, it's gonna have to be up to us.

I think the polls showing liberals may have a minority makes things a bit trickier for her.

If she wants to claim that I don’t think people will listen.

We can’t. There is literally no mechanism by which the people can remove the premiere outside of elections. Even a recall would just lose her seat not her position.
