Will the Liberals dump Trudeau?

With the Liberals continuing to poll exceptionally low, we explore if it's time for Justin Trudeau to step down and whether his potential replacements including Chrystia Freeland and Mark Carney can salvage the sinking party.

It's no secret the Liberal Party is Canada is unpopular. Poll after poll shows the Liberals between 15 to 20 points behind the Conservatives, led by a surging Pierre Poilievre.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau isn't faring any better, hitting record low approval ratings after nearly ten years in power. Is it time to replace him? And if so, who can take over the sinking ship?

David Herle, a partner at Rubicon Strategy and chief campaign strategist for the Liberals under Paul Martin, joins us to answer those questions and gives us his thoughts on the politicians whose names are floating around to take over the party.
