Pressure Mounts on Trudeau to Resign

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing significant political turmoil as pressure mounts for him to resign, following the recent resignation of his deputy prime minister and finance minister, Chrystia Freeland. Freeland's departure, which came unexpectedly just before her scheduled economic statement, has sparked discussions within the Liberal caucus about Trudeau's leadership viability. MP Chandra Arya has publicly urged Trudeau to step aside, suggesting that Freeland could serve as a credible alternative. The opposition parties are uniting to present a no-confidence motion against Trudeau, exacerbating his precarious position. Amid these challenges, Trudeau continues to maintain he is the best candidate to lead the party into the next election, despite dwindling support and declining approval ratings. The situation is further complicated by external threats, including potential tariffs from the incoming U.S. administration, which could impact Canada's economy.
