Trudeau Reshuffles Cabinet Amid Political Turmoil

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has conducted a major cabinet reshuffle, adding eight new ministers and reassigning four, amid mounting political turmoil and calls for his resignation. This cabinet shake-up comes in the wake of significant resignations, including Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, and the withdrawal of support from the New Democratic Party (NDP), which plans to introduce a no-confidence motion. The reshuffle aims to address vacancies and bolster the Liberal government as Trudeau faces increased discontent over his leadership and challenges from inside his party. Despite the cabinet changes, the NDP, led by Jagmeet Singh, has declared its intention to bring down Trudeau's government, signaling the possibility of an early election. The reshuffle reflects Trudeau's attempt to stabilize his administration, though it remains uncertain whether these efforts will succeed in quelling the internal and external pressures he faces. Trudeau's government, lacking a parliamentary majority, has relied on NDP support, but the loss of this backing casts doubt on its future stability.
