The future Chrystia Freeland has long feared is here. Now she thinks she’s the best person to confront it
OTTAWA—Even as she attempts to become Liberal leader and prime minister, Chrystia Freeland is still surprised she chose to run for office at all.
“Sometimes when I look back on that decision, I’m astonished that I made that decision,” she said in a recent interview with the Star.
“At a human level, it was really hard. The kids really didn’t want to do it. And actually, they still reproach me because we bribed them with an offer to get a pet, which we never actually did.”
It seems doubtful Freeland will win the leadership. Pity as we all looked forward to Kim Campbell 2.0.
