Lewis Is In

 

Leslyn Lewis has entered the Conservative leadership race. I did not think she would, since she is fishing in the same pond as Pierre Poilievre, and he has a much better shot than she. But she adorns the race. She ran a strong third last time, coming from nowhere. Obviously an impressive campaigner.

Jean Charest is expected to declare tomorrow, and he is also an extremely impressive candidate. You could hardly get more highly qualified: former party leader, former cabinet minister, former deputy prime minister, former long-term premier of Quebec, fluently bilingual.

For the sake of a good race, I would also love to see Michael Chen come in.
