Premier Smith On Trudeau Resignation

I have been calling for an election um whatever internal dynamics that the liberal party has to go through to to get to that point is is kind of up to them but I would have preferred today to see an election call because I don’t think two months delay is going to make any bit of difference to how Canadians are are looking at this Administration why do we need an election we need an election so that whoever is in the chair has a four-year mandate and so when we go to negotiate with the United States it’s uh it’s some
certainty about who the players are going to be at the table so um I’m a bit disappointed that we didn’t get an election call today I think that would have been the better outcome and it would have uh allowed for the the uh the prime minister to go to the the public and see whether or not they support his agenda of the last number of years I think the the polling results suggest that’s not the case so we’re putting this forward hoping that it becomes a topic of discussion…
