Liberal Leadership Race

Since it looks like the Liberal Party has not learned much from its most recent past and is content to have nothing but white middle aged men from Toronto running for the leadership, by and large, what will make the other stand out from the crowd?

Could it be the first to offer an apology to the Canadian people for the recent scandal, bad government, disrespect for the Canadian voter and tax payer, the inertia of 12 years of Liberal Government, combined with the brilliant plan of trying to buy the votes of Quebec residents through organized crime?

A party that insists on looking inside the GTA for its next leader, and not look across Canada for fresh blood from the outside will be mean a continued future in the hinterland of Canadian politics. It will be much like, 'death by incest.'

Thank you
