Trudeau Considers Resignation or Prorogation After Freeland's Exit, Faces No Confidence Vote
Dec 16, 2024, 06:49 PM
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is reportedly contemplating resignation or prorogation of Parliament following the unexpected resignation of Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland. Freeland's departure, announced in a letter posted on social media, has ignited a storm of confusion on Parliament Hill, especially as it coincides with the scheduled tabling of the fall economic statement. Sources indicate Trudeau has conveyed these considerations to his cabinet, and he is potentially planning to address Parliament this afternoon. Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has responded by considering a vote of no confidence against Trudeau, which could lead to an election if successful. The political landscape in Canada is currently in flux, with Trudeau's leadership under scrutiny and the Liberal government facing potential instability.
