Andrew Bevan has been given the complicated task of leading the federal Liberals’ next electoral campaign, as the party faces repeated setbacks and an internal revolt against its leader Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Bevan is replacing Jeremy Broadhurst, who left the role of national campaign director on Sept. 30 after playing a key role in the 2015, 2019, and 2021 elections.
