Being reported Trudeau may be stepping down

JUST IN: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is considering resigning, according to CTV News.

Sources have reportedly told the outlet that Trudeau is "considering prorogation or resignation" and may address Parliament today.

"Sources tell CTV News that the prime minister has conveyed to cabinet that he is considering prorogation or resignation, and he’s potentially planning to address Parliament this afternoon," the outlet reported.

The report comes after Canada's finance minister Chrystia Freeland suddenly announced that she was quitting.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is also calling out Trudeau, saying Canada has "gotten out of control" under his leadership.

Huh.  I didn't know the president-elect had the authority to fire governors.

His deputy prime minister just stepped down over a dispute over Trump's tariffs and reportedly the rest of his cabinet is in turmoil with some demanding he step down

I think they are set to lose seats in their Parliament the next election (not sure when that is).  Maybe his party is trying to avoid a loss.

It’s actually insane…

Freeland resigns two hours before the full budget was to be presented.

Then the replacement resigns/refuses to take the helm.

The Trudeau regime is going down, and it looks like it might be going down today.

Buzzed a friend of mine who's from Canada to ask if he'd heard. Started his reply with "About damned time. Can't stand him and neither can anyone I know, ****ing commie."

I'm no expert on parliamentary government, but I've read enough history to know that PMs and cabinet ministers resigning is not at all uncommon. From what news I've seen, Trudeau has lost a lot of support in recent months.

Wow, he'd better put on his Indian costume and dark face and claim he's being ousted because he's a POC...

That will stop his haters in their tracks.

Why yes it was!

Oddly enough, apparently none of the Indians were accused of cultural appropriation...

Gone as soon as the party selects his replacement

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced his resignation as leader of the ruling Liberal Party.

“I intend to resign as party leader, as prime minister, after the party selects its new leader,” the 53-year-old told reporters at a press conference in Ottawa on Monday.

Trudeau will remain prime minister in a caretaker capacity until a new leader is chosen.

New guy likely to replace Castro Jr is Pierre Poilievre, and he's a big pro-Bitcoiner.

ETA: Hopefully he doesn't run into Maisie Williams and her Needle. (shiny nickel for whoever untangles that one first)
