IF
you are a party leader and you fail to win your own seat in the previous three elections…
THEN
it should be clear that you will never win and you need to step aside…
BECAUSE
because it will never happen again. Never has that been truer for Annamie Paul, who stepped down as leader of the Green Party. Amid plummeting support in the popular vote to the People’s Party of Canada, failing to gain on the two seats won from the last election, as well as a potential leadership review in June amid in-party fighting, it’s a wonder she didn’t leave the role sooner.
