Former Liberal cabinet ministers previously expelled from caucus for expressing dissenting views have come out in support of Liberal MP Joël Lightbound, who recently criticized the position of his party on its COVID-19 policies, approach, and discourse.

“Glimmers of democratic independence from MPs in Ottawa (Canada needs a wave of this),” said former minister of justice Jody Wilson-Raybould on Twitter on Feb. 8.
