Frank Baylis Steps Into the Spotlight at Liberal Leadership Debate
The Liberal leadership race is heating up, and last night’s debate in Montreal was a critical moment for the candidates. Among them, Frank Baylis stood out as a strong contender, proving that he’s not just another name on the ballot but a serious player in the race to replace Justin Trudeau.
Baylis, a businessman and former MP, showcased his experience and confidence on stage. Unlike some of his rivals, he didn’t hold back when discussing major issues, including Canada’s relationship with the U.S. and how to handle the challenges posed by Donald Trump. Baylis took a firm stance, asserting that Canada needs a leader who won’t hesitate to push back against economic threats. His direct approach resonated with many who feel that the next Prime Minister must be ready to take a stand on the global stage.

While Mark Carney remains the perceived front-runner, he had a tough night. His struggles in French were evident, and his slip-up regarding Hamas and the war in Gaza raised questions about his ability to handle sensitive international issues. Chrystia Freeland even had to step in to correct him at one point, which, rather than hurting Carney, demonstrated the surprising lack of aggression from the other candidates. Instead of seizing the opportunity to challenge him, they largely played it safe.
Baylis, however, made it clear that he is ready to fight. He emphasized his track record in business and job creation, reminding voters that his experience goes beyond politics. This could be a key factor in attracting support from Liberals looking for a leader with real-world economic expertise. His performance in the French-language debate was steady, and he managed to avoid the missteps that plagued some of his opponents.
With the final English-language debate approaching, the race remains open. Liberal members will begin casting their advance votes soon, and Baylis has positioned himself as a candidate to watch. Whether he can gain enough momentum to overtake Carney remains to be seen, but one thing is certain—Frank Baylis is not to be underestimated.
