Ex-Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland is running to replace Trudeau as Canada’s prime minister

Associated Press  

TORONTO — Chrystia Freeland, whose abrupt resignation as finance minister last month forced Justin Trudeau’s exit as prime minister, said she is running to be the next leader of the Liberal Party and prime minister of Canada. Trudeau announced on Jan. 6 that he would resigen, though he will remain prime minister until a new Liberal Party leader is chosen on March 9. Trudeau told Freeland last month he no longer wanted her to serve as finance minister, but that she could remain deputy prime minister and the point person for U.S.-Canada relations. Freeland and Trudeau had disagreed about two recently announced policies: a temporary sales tax holiday on goods ranging from children’s clothes to beer, and plans to send every citizen a check for $250 Canadian dollars Freeland, who was also deputy prime minister, said Canada could not afford “costly political gimmicks.” But Freeland herself has been criticized for Canada’s growing deficits and she was finance minister when the Liberal government became deeply unpopular with voters over a range of issues, including the soaring cost of food and housing as well as surging immigration.
