Until the law is fixed, he said, he’ll never make another leadership run – but does think someone else needs to step up to replace current leader Andrew Scheer after he failed to win a majority government for the Conservatives in last month’s vote.“Andrew just can’t lead,” O’Leary told The Canadian Press in an interview.O’Leary said he’s whittled down his nearly $500,000 worth of debt to under $160,000. Under the current rules he has to pay it off by next May.
Scheer won the leadership, O’Leary said, by managing to convince the membership he’d be able to get around this issue of his socially conservative views. O’Leary said the caucus members he has spoken to are angry, and are angling for immediate change. Scheer survived a vote Wednesday night that would have allowed his MPs to kick him out, but the full party membership will get a say in April when he will face a mandatory leadership at the party’s convention in Toronto.O’Leary said he remains a card-carrying member of the Conservative Party, and did cast a ballot for the Conservatives in last month’s election.
Conservative ideas like the national energy corridor could right the economic ship, O’Leary said, they just need a different captain.
