On May 27, 2017 the Conservative Party of Canada elected a new leader to defeat the Trudeau Liberals in 2019!
The RACE is over … and the new leader is Andrew Scheer!
Fluently bilingual, Andrew has served as the MP for Regina-Qu’Appelle for twelve years. Andrew was the youngest Speaker of the House of Commons in history. He helped lead Conservatives as the Opposition House Leader. Andrew and his wife Jill live and work in Regina, where they raise their five children.
CONGRATS ANDREW! IT’S ‘SCHEER’ EXCITEMENT!
