Liberals fill interim leader’s ear in West Coast stop
Interim Liberal Leader Bob Rae played the good dad in the afterschool special Sunday, taking some time out to sit down and listen to party members at a meeting in Vancouver. About 50 federal Liberals gathered and gabbed with Rae about party transparency, communication, and how to mobilize the apathetic Canadian voter. The meeting was part of Rae’s summer listening tour, ahead of the party’s biennial convention in January. The Liberals, reduced to third-party status in the last election, will choose a new permanent boss in 2013.
