Liberal Leadership Race Heating Up

The Liberal leadership race is intensifying as seven contenders have submitted their paperwork and the required deposit. With candidates like Mark Carney, Chrystia Freeland, and Karina Gould emerging as frontrunners, endorsements within the Liberal caucus are pivotal. Carney currently leads in endorsements, raising questions about Freeland's grassroots appeal versus establishment support. Freeland has positioned herself as an outsider challenging the Ottawa establishment, suggesting Carney represents the status quo backed by the Prime Minister's Office.
