The one who was also leader of the Liberal Party of British Columbia first mentions the lack of time to justify this decision, and also her skills in the French language. “There is simply not enough time to organize a successful campaign and communicate effectively with French-speaking Canadians in their language. I worked hard to improve my French, but I’m not there yet today. »

As a reminder, leadership candidates must announce their participation in the race no later than January 23, 2025. And it is on March 9, 2025 that the name of the new party leader will be known.

The politician still hopes that the PLC will manage to renew itself to face the multiple challenges to come. “Our party still needs to find a way to generate new momentum and energy. It must open up to a greater number of Canadians who feel excluded, but who cannot stand the harsh and mocking policies of Pierre Poilievre nor the unrealistic approach of the NDP (…) We must redefine the Liberal Party so that “ it must once again become a major party – a party that will fight for jobs, workers, investment and growth,” she explained in a statement.

Moreover, regarding the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada, Christy Clark declared: “we don’t need Governor Poilievre. We need a Liberal Party at the top of its game. »

In recent days, other important faces in Canadian politics have made the same decision as Christy Clark. This is the case of Dominic LeBlanc, Mélanie Joly, Anita Anand and Steven MacKinnon.

To date, the MP for Nepean, Chandra Arya, and the former MP for Pierrefonds—Dollard, Frank Baylis, are the only ones to have announced their wish to run.
