Joyce Murray: Leadership Debate

Stephane Dion Dept: Few predicted ahead of time that Dion would come out of the 2006 Liberal leadership convention the winner. As for Murray, she was asked by a reporter after the first leadership debate why she didnt just quit then and there, according to CBC. Murray says she holds out a "triple offering," not unlike Dion's "three pillars" : her track record in leadership, her vision bolstered by substantive policies and her pathway to success in 2015 using electoral cooperation and In many ways, Joyce Murray resembles a former Liberal leadership aspirant, Stephane Dion, with her sustainable society policy reminiscent of Dion's "green shift," her French as shaky as his English and her willingness to form an alliance of some kind with the Green Party. It wasnt intuitive to foresee Murray, a B.C. MP who has had minor critics roles in the party, as someone who could be gaining ground against the presumed frontrunner, Justin Trudeau.
