Anita Anand, the secretary of transport, will not be running for president of the Liberal Party of Canada in her place in Justin Trudeau’s leadership. In a statement posted to social media, Anand said,” Now, I am announcing that I will not be running to become the next Leader of the Liberal Party of Canada and will not be running for re-election as Member of Parliament for Oakville.” Bis the following poll, Anand, who was a solicitor and professor at the University of Toronto before being elected, promises to honorably carry out her duties. I’ve decided that the moment is right for me to move on to his next book, which I did until the pandemic started, when Anand was appointed Minister of Public Services and Procurement. Two years later, she would become the next person, and second since Kim Campbell, to serve as Canada’s military secretary. She would get promoted to president of the Treasury Board a year later before taking up her present position in September. Trending Then

A new chief will be announced on March 9, according to the Democratic party, giving prospective candidates only two weeks to decide whether to apply for the position. Anand joins Dominic LeBlanc on the list of well-known Democrats who won’t be running for office. Former B.C. leading Christy Clark and former Bank of Canada government Mark Carney are among those considering a pay. Former Montreal MP Frank Baylis and Nepean, Ont., MP Chandra Arya have publicly confirmed their plans to run. Another notable figures, such as former finance minister Chrystia Freeland, former minister of market François-Philippe Champagne, and former house leader Karina Gould, have not yet tipped their hands in either direction. — with data from the Canadian Press &amp, copy 2025 Global News, a section of Corus Entertainment Inc.
