Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, his popularity declining, faces calls to resign

LA Times  

Canadian Minister of Finance and Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, shown speaking on Parliament Hill in Ottawa last week, resigned from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Cabinet on Monday. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau faced the biggest test of his political career after Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, long one of his most powerful and loyal ministers, resigned from the Cabinet on Monday. Freeland, who was also deputy prime minister, said Trudeau had told her on Friday that he no longer wanted her to serve as finance minister and offered her another role in the Cabinet. Freeland said Canada is dealing with Trump’s threat to impose sweeping 25% tariffs and should eschew “costly political gimmicks” it can “ill afford.” “Our country is facing a grave challenge,” Freeland said in her letter.
