A number of MPs and Liberal party brass encouraged  government House Leader Karina Gould to run for the leadership, two of  her advisers have told CBC News.
As the Liberals' point person in the House of Commons, Gould was tasked with trying to manage what has been a tumultuous parliamentary sitting this past fall.
The Ontario MP has held a number of cabinet positions in Trudeau's government. And Karina Gould seems to officially be in the race.
