The following Wikipedia contributor has declared a personal or professional connection to the subject of this article. Relevant policies and guidelines may include conflict of interest, autobiography, and neutral point of view.
I created this page because it is in line with current practices regarding presidents of major Canadian political parties. His predecessors Scott Lamb and John Walsh have wiki pages solely because of holding this role and the presidents of other political parties have wiki pages because of the role that they are currently holding. Suzanne Cowan Further, I think it makes sense because these are public facing figures who represent and speak on behalf of their parties within their official capacity as a part of their defined role.

I have tagged this article for a conflict of interest, since the main author has a declared COI for this subject on his user page at User:Canadiancon2020. The relevant quote from WP:COI is Conflict of interest (COI) editing involves contributing to Wikipedia about yourself, family, friends, clients, employers, or your financial and other relationships. Any external relationship can trigger a conflict of interest. That someone has a conflict of interest is a description of a situation, not a judgement about that person's opinions, integrity, or good faith. COI editing is strongly discouraged on Wikipedia. It undermines public confidence and risks causing public embarrassment to the individuals and companies being promoted. Editors with a COI are sometimes unaware of whether or how much it has influenced their editing. If COI editing causes disruption, an administrator may opt to place blocks on the involved accounts.- Ahunt (talk) 12:24, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
