“What I anticipate we will be told at the end of the summer: there will be a narrative in the media that Andrew Scheer didn’t grab enough headlines, that he’s not introducing himself sufficiently to voters, that he’s an unknown quantity. And that’s not what Andrew Scheer should be doing at this time.” – Travis Kann
