That's historically inaccurate. Andrea Horwath was in the 70's for her first two leadership reviews.

How does it set the stage? The requirement for an election is under 50%, and even Crombie's opponent in the Liberal Party said a result over 66% gives legitimacy. She stood with a united caucus, recognized that changes need to be made, and committed to moving forward and making those changes.

Not asking about how I compare to others. The coordinate chart shows me close to the LPC and 3-4x that distance to the GPC and NDP. However, the chart of policy alignment by party shows I'm most aligned with NDP and GPC, with LPC in third. The two charts representing the same data are incongruous.

Two of those were concessions to the NDP for the confidence and supply agreement. The Liberals didn't want to do them and the NDP had to threaten to tear up the agreement in early 2024 because the Liberals were dragging their feet on the pharmacare bill. The Liberals don't get credit for those.

It's not an offence; it's part of a contractual agreement. It's also a stipulated remedy clause and the amount is so disconnected from any conceivable damages that it would almost certainly be deemed an unenforceable penalty: www.mccarthy.ca/en/insights/...
