Freeland Resigns as Canada's Finance Minister; Trudeau Faces Calls to Resign Amid Trump Mockery
Dec 17, 2024, 09:31 AM
Canada's Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister, Chrystia Freeland, who had been a key member of Justin Trudeau's cabinet since 2015, has resigned from her position, citing disagreements over how to respond to tariff threats from U.S. President-elect Donald Trump. Freeland posted her resignation letter online, where she criticized Trudeau's economic strategy. Her departure has plunged Trudeau's government into turmoil, with opposition leaders and members of his own Liberal Party calling for his resignation. In an emergency meeting, several MPs urged Trudeau to step aside. Dominic Leblanc has been sworn in as the new Finance Minister. Meanwhile, Donald Trump mocked Trudeau, referring to him as 'Governor Justin Trudeau' of the 'Great State of Canada' and described Freeland as 'totally toxic,' stating 'she will not be missed.' The political crisis has raised concerns about the economic impact of potential U.S. tariffs on Canadian exports.
