A Balanced Approach

Over the past couple of weeks I have given a hard time to those within the Liberal Party of Canada seemed on speeding towards the next election - instead of pausing to determine where they should head and what exactly the Canadian public is looking for.

Yesterday, Islander turned New Brunswickers turned Central Canadian Steven MacKinnon returned to Moncton to speak to his former colleagues at the Moncton Rotary Club with a much more neutral and strategic approach.

As National Director of the Liberal Party - it's MacKinnon's role to help to redefine the party and to seek out the new vision and new direction that will take the party into the next 15 years and MacKinnon is smart enough to understand that more of the same will not work. Don't rush towards the finish line - otherwise you won't like the place you've finished.

It's also a time where some in the party are calling for MacKinnon's head as an architect for the failed election campaign.

While National Directors sometimes pay the price, it may be time to keep some consistency in Ottawa as well. As long as those in charge remember that this great party is one that needs to reflect the values of Canadians from coast to coast to coast.

It's a time of rebuilding. Don't rush to fill a void just because. Do it because it's the right thing to do for Canadians. Keeping searching for new ideas and new visions. Encourage our young leaders of tomorrow to start speaking today.
