I'm in the same position as you but I don't think the Liberals can bounce back to that space that fast.
I'm not suggesting to win freedom convoy voters, but that most people are tired of that battleground and it shouldn't be a focus of their messaging. It's too similar to where they already have been focused.
Affordability, immigration, cost of living, relations/protection from the incoming Trump regime would be more important focus points.

I believe the votes to get the liberals to a minority opposition lie in the center. What does the average Canadian want? Similar services (slightly better) and an affordable cost of living. Let the middle left call you racist for reforming immigration, your job is to provide value to Canadians first and foremost. Let’s get back to that as our focus.

I agree with this.
But the current remaining support the Liberals have will shift to NDP, so they'd lose votes on one side to gain on the other.
The Left/Centre Left is too split right now.
I do think that's where they need to go and agree with you overall, but I don't see that happening so quickly.
I think the stain of JT will need time to wear off and someone like Carney would be better to save his shot for next time.
But we'll see...
