The liberals are toast at this point in 2025, even if they switch leaders ahead of it. Nothing they can do will make things more affordable for voters prior to that election, and that's going to be the number one reason people are voting.
Probably a better long-term Liberal electoral strategy is for Justin to lose, resign quickly, and get replaced for the 2029 election than to have a new leader come in prior to the 2025 election and lose, and then have that same person try for 2029.
Having a new leader for 3 years, and 4 years of people getting mad at the Conservatives for not actually improving things like they've been saying they can magically do is more likely to lead to a Liberal election success for that follow up election in 2029.
Just my nickel.
The problem with this is that we'll have to suffer through the tenure of a smarmy little rat who could do irreparable damage to our country, but you're probably right that this is what the Liberals are planning.
Hopefully he will not be able to do a lot of damage with a minority.
I would be overjoyed at a minority, but it isn't looking like that's what we're going to get.
Did you guys learn nothing from the United States over the last seven years?
They learned that America can pay for the wall we're going to build.
In the words of a disgruntled Republican Texas senator "there ain't no wall, and Mexico certainly didn't pay for it!".
