Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre will face a mandatory leadership review in January, after the party failed to form government in the last federal election. 

The Conservative Party’s national council agreed on Saturday that the leadership review would take place in Calgary, according to CBC News sources.

The Globe and Mail first reported the story. 

If a leader does not resign following an election loss, the party’s constitution requires Conservative Party members to vote on whether that leader should stay on at its next national convention.
