It is very courageous of him to take this responsibility in a context where politics is so hostile and demanding, particularly for women. The headwind is strong when we uphold values like feminism, equal opportunities, environmental protection, the fight against racism and even ethics. And it’s not just a headwind. Sometimes it even looks like it’s hailing, it’s so difficult

Ruba, you have my full support. I know you have what it takes to take on this challenge!
Remember that Ruba Ghazal crossed swords with Émilise Lessard-Therrien and Christine Labrie during a close race for co-spokesperson of the party, which ended with the victory of Ms. Lessard-Therrien in November 2023.
