Colour me confused, or even unsophisticated. I was thrilled when JWR won her seat as an independent. She is now dedicated to serve the best interests of her riding's constituents.
But where I get lost in the weeds is her decision as regards the Green Party leadership -- May practically offered it to her and yet she's not interested. I would have thought that if anyone could propel the Greens forward in a highly substantive way, it was JWR.
So, in her heart, it's fair to surmise that she's still a Liberal. One can only assume that the Liberal leadership is still on her radar. JWR must be much smarter than yours truly if she still clearly sees a path to party leadership. I hope that's right -- cause she would make a great party leader and likely prime minister.
But the LPC is a party that while in government has made what should have been government-ending mistakes -- but voters thought otherwise. And as a democrat, that's fine.
It's clear that this country, one way or another, needs JWR in office. I hope to see that day come, sooner rather than later. But where I worry is when I try to interpret her present political strategy. It would be a crying shame if her efforts produced nothing at all in the way of a leadership win.
Hopefully, JWR knows something I don't. Cause right now, I can't see the path to ultimate victory for this country. JWR is the ideal person to correct the grievous judgement errors made by the present incumbent in the prime ministerial chair.
