Liberal national caucus chair shuts down request by MPs for summer meeting over byelection loss

The Liberal Party’s caucus chair Brenda Shanahan told MPs late Thursday that a full caucus meeting is “impossible” this summer due to “scheduling logistics,” despite a flurry of requests from parliamentarians after a shocking byelection loss in a Toronto-area riding.

“Nevertheless, we will continue the conversations this summer about the changes you and Canadians want to see,” Shanahan said in an email to colleagues that was obtained by CBC News.
