If I was a Liberal in St. Paul’s I’d be tempted to vote Tory in the byelection just to get Trudeau to quit!
Jokes aside, to the extent that any Liberals see Trudeau's resignation as a panacea, look across the pond. Granted, the UK Tories over the past few years have seemed far, far more incompetent than the LPC, and that's a pretty low bar. But even John Turner and Kim Campbell right here in Canada, chosen to revitalize the party following the resignation of an unpopular PM. Leadership changes can often have the exact opposite effect if you choose the successor poorly.
