Andrew Scheer

Andrew MacDougall: While the PM offers talking points from his driveway, the onus is on the opposition to make the case for proper scrutiny via Parliament

The Conservative leader raised concerns about the government response to the coronavirus, but struck an optimistic note on parties working together for Canadians

Scott Gilmore: If the Liberals want to take the best decisions for all Canadians, they need to bring the NDP and the CPC to the cabinet table

Heidi Matthews: When it comes to the blockades and protests, Conservative leaders are invoking the idea of the ’outside agitator’ to delegitimize and break the bonds of activist solidarity

Paul Wells: In an extraordinary day on Parliament Hill, Andrew Scheer got shut out of protest talks and the PM put a big bet on patience

Partisan warfare, ruthless tactics, friendly fire. What really happened in the final weeks before the resignation of the leader of the opposition.

Frank Graves and Michael Valpy: Populists make up more than half of the Conservative base. Rona Ambrose and Peter MacKay don’t appeal to them.

Paul Wells: The assumption among Scheer’s opponents that the party could obviously do better will now be tested. Best of luck, folks.

Scott Gilmore: The next leader will either be someone who resonates with voters across the country or steers the party into the ditch

"I’ve made this decision because it’s the best thing for our party. Our party needs someone who can give everything they’ve got."
