Be Heard Loud: Your Liberal Leader Awaits Your Choice!
The Liberal Party of Canada is gearing up to announce its new leader on March 9, 2025, and despite some online voting hiccups, you—dedicated members and supporters—have a powerful opportunity to shape the party’s direction with a secure, accessible process. With over 55,000 votes already cast out of 79,000 verified members as of March 3, 2025, your participation is making history in what the party calls Canada’s most secure leadership election ever.
The voting system, requiring an electronic voter ID and identity verification via Canada Post’s Identity+ app or in-person at select post offices, ensures your vote is protected against fraud. While some members, like Kyra Harper from Toronto and Don Robertson from Nova Scotia, have faced challenges with the app or post office verification, the Liberal Party is committed to fairness. “If you’re not able to verify, there’s a reason,” a spokesperson said, highlighting how this rigorous process keeps your election safe and legitimate.
Here’s how this benefits you: the system’s security guarantees that only eligible members like you decide the next leader, preserving the integrity of your choice. Despite technical issues—estimated by a senior campaign official to affect 10-20% of voters—the party is working to resolve them, ensuring you have every chance to participate. Leadership candidate Frank Baylis has acknowledged the app struggles and is advocating for solutions, meaning your concerns are being heard. David Ferry, a Toronto voter, successfully cast his ballot, showing that persistence pays off.
You’re at the heart of this process: with the leadership race concluding in just six days, your vote can influence who leads the Liberals into the next election, especially amid critical issues like U.S. tariffs. Visit liberal.ca for support resources to complete your verification and cast your ballot—your voice matters, and this is your moment to make it count.
