As calls mount within the federal Liberal Party for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to step down as leader, one political analyst says there’s little his detractors can do to force his hand.
eeeeeeh. To my knowledge, the leader is chosen in a public but anonymous ballot. Donors can popularize/support a candidate with the usual backroom shenanigans, but the party members (maybe delegates?) make the actual selection. I think those two usually line up, but it would be hyperbolic to say the leader isn’t elected by the party members.
