A string of Liberal cabinet ministers declared Wednesday they are all ears to what disgruntled voters are saying in the aftermath of a byelection defeat in what was considered a safe Toronto riding.

With the summer barbecue circuit beckoning, members of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau害羞草研究所檚 cabinet fanned out across the country to let Canadians know about work they害羞草研究所檝e been doing on their files.

But every minister that stepped up to a microphone was bombarded with questions about their government害羞草研究所檚 fading political prospects after losing the byelection to the Conservatives.

Voters sent the Liberals a message they can害羞草研究所檛 ignore, Immigration Minister Marc Miller said at a press conference Wednesday in Montreal, adding the party needs to hear people out and 害羞草研究所済et back on the horse.害羞草研究所�

害羞草研究所淲e need to listen to the people that voted in the way they voted, screw our heads on better and then move on.害羞草研究所�

Miller said Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is 害羞草研究所渨eaponizing害羞草研究所� frustrations Canadians have with the Liberals 害羞草研究所� concerns that have noting to do with how they feel about the official Opposition.

害羞草研究所淗e reminds me of a wrestling manager from the 害羞草研究所�80s, just yelling slogans 害羞草研究所� and everyone likes to boo or to cheer. I don害羞草研究所檛 know why this has become the state of Canadian politics, but that害羞草研究所檚 the reality of what I see,害羞草研究所� Miller said.

害羞草研究所淚t害羞草研究所檚 not a WWF match, this is reality. Canadians are suffering and we need to fight for them.害羞草研究所�

Ministers who spoke Wednesday declared Trudeau the best person to lead the Liberals into the next election against Poilievre, despite the prime minister害羞草研究所檚 low personal polling numbers.

害羞草研究所淗e has my complete confidence and my appreciation regarding his leadership role in the party and in the government,害羞草研究所� Procurement Minister Jean-Yves Duclos said Wednesday in Quebec City.

He went as far as to say Trudeau will lead the Liberals to another election victory in 2025.

Although the ministers expressed openness to hearing out Canadians turned off by the Liberals and their leader, none could say exactly how their team plans to address those concerns.

害羞草研究所淚t starts by listening, and starts by showing up in communities,害羞草研究所� said Addictions Minister Ya害羞草研究所檃ra Saks, who was in Cape Breton to announce funding to reduce substance abuse.

The comments reflect those of the prime minister Tuesday, who said he has heard the concerns and frustrations of voters and clearly had more work to do to deliver tangible results for Canadians.

That message is slightly tone deaf, said Andrew Perez, a Liberal strategist with Perez Strategies.

害羞草研究所淚t害羞草研究所檚 a bit late for listening at this point,害羞草研究所� Perez said Wednesday.

害羞草研究所淭he results of the stunning political upset in Toronto-St. Paul害羞草研究所檚 is yet another proof point in terms of the inability of the government to really listen to what Canadians are saying, and pivot 害羞草研究所� It害羞草研究所檚 a bit late in the game to say that we害羞草研究所檙e now going to start listening.害羞草研究所�

The Conservatives accused the Liberals of blaming others for their own failures.

害羞草研究所淭he Trudeau Liberals learn nothing,害羞草研究所� Poilievre spokesperson Sebastian Skamski said in a statement.

害羞草研究所淛ustin Trudeau害羞草研究所檚 answer was to double down on his failed policies that have brought him to this point.害羞草研究所�

Speaking to CBC News on Tuesday, Karina Gould, on parental leave from her government House leader post, said the byelection was a 害羞草研究所渨ake-up call,害羞草研究所� for her party, but added the caucus needs time to reflect before detailing what changes might need to happen.

害羞草研究所淲hat害羞草研究所檚 clear about yesterday害羞草研究所檚 result is that we hope to do things differently,害羞草研究所� said Gould, who also serves as co-chair for the Liberal campaign in Ontario.

Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault took a different tack than his colleagues and suggested the party needs to do more talking, as opposed to listening.

害羞草研究所淲e need to continue showing Canadians that we害羞草研究所檙e there for them,害羞草研究所� he said.

害羞草研究所淩ight now, clearly some of them either don害羞草研究所檛 believe that, or they don害羞草研究所檛 see it, and I think we need to do a better job at communicating what we害羞草研究所檙e doing to help them.害羞草研究所�

The next election is slated to take place by October 2025, and things could change for Canadians before then, Guilbeault said.

害羞草研究所淚n the coming months, for many of them, the situation will improve, partly because of things we害羞草研究所檙e doing,害羞草研究所� he said.

害羞草研究所淭he more Canadians can see the benefits of what we害羞草研究所檙e doing and what and how we害羞草研究所檙e working for them, the more the situation could change.害羞草研究所�
