Ottawa, Canada 
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, despite dealing with the lowest point of his political career, put on his party face at the Liberal Party's annual holiday gathering. 
He came with a smiling face at the gathering, which was day after one of his most trusted allies, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, announced her resignation. 
Even though some members of his own party were calling on him to leave, he stood strong and in a resistant tone addressed the party. 
He referred to his "difficult" week, comparing it to a family fight.

Trudeau further discussed being "audacious" and "ambitious" in the face of adversity and slammed his political rival, Pierre Poilievre, the leader of the opposition Conservative Party of Canada.
Meanwhile, the people said that it sounded more like a campaign speech, adding that despite the latest political turmoil, Trudeau looked like he was digging in. 
Further, even after the leader of the country's progressive New Democrat Party (NDP) Jagmeet Singh said that he would introduce a motion to topple the current government in 2025, Trudeau's stance did not change. 
Notably, the support of the NDP had been keeping the Liberals in power.

As pressure increases on Trudeau for him to resign, some of the experts say that he now needs a new strategy. 
Moreover, Trudeau has also been losing some of his popularity. According to a September poll, around two-thirds of Canadians disapproved of him. Only 26 per cent of the respondents said that Trudeau was their top pick for the post of prime minister, keeping him 19 points behind Conservative leader Poilievre. 
So far, at least 18 MPs under Trudeau's government have called for their leader to step down. "He's delusional if he thinks we can continue like this," New Brunswick MP Wayne Long told reporters this week.
"It's unfair to us MPs, it's unfair to the ministers and most importantly it's unfair to the country. We need to move on with a new direction and we need to reboot," he added. 
According to Long, as many as 50 out of the 153 Liberal MPs want Trudeau to step down immediately.

Amidst political chaos in Canada, feisty Trudeau perseveres, but for how long?

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's political troubles seem to have no end, as a key ally who was helping keep him in office said on Friday (Dec 20) he would bring down the Liberal government and trigger an election in the country.

Jagmeet Singh, the leader of the New Democratic Party (NDP), has announced his intention to present a formal motion of no-confidence after the House of Commons elected chamber returns from a winter break on January 27.

With this, Trudeau looks set to lose power.&nbsp;

According to Reuters news agency, if the motion goes through, Trudeau, who has been Canada's PM for nine years, will be out of office and an election will take place.

"We will put forward a clear motion of non-confidence in the next sitting of the House of Commons," he said in a statement.

Already, the leader of the Bloc Quebecois, a larger opposition party, has promised to back the motion.

Meanwhile, the Conservatives are gearing up to end Trudeau's time at 24 Seussex Drive.

They have announced their intention to ask Governor General Mary Simon - the personal representative of King Charles, Canada's head of state - to recall Parliament to hold a no-confidence vote before the end of the year.

However, they are not expected to succeed,&nbsp;Reuters reported citing constitutional experts.

"We cannot have a chaotic clown show running our government into the ground. What is clear is that Justin Trudeau does not have the confidence of Parliament," said Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre.

<h2>What's next for Trudeau and the Liberals?</h2>

The timing of Singh's announcement leaves Trudeau with limited options. Even if the prime minister resigns over the holiday break, the Liberal Party would struggle to organise a leadership convention or select a permanent successor before a potential election. This means that the party would have to contest the vote with an interim leader, which has never happened before in Canada.

Canada's embattled Prime Minister Justin&nbsp;Trudeau&nbsp;will announce a major&nbsp;cabinet&nbsp;shuffle on Friday, government sources told AFP, days after the surprise resignation of his longtime number two shocked the nation. 
It will be a "significant shakeup," one source said. Chrystia Freeland, after nearly a decade at&nbsp;Trudeau's side, announced on Monday she was quitting her dual roles as deputy prime minister and finance minister after disagreeing with her boss over US President-elect Donald Trump's tariff threats.

 
The move marked the first open dissent against&nbsp;Trudeau&nbsp;from within his&nbsp;cabinet&nbsp;and has emboldened critics. 
As many as a dozen new ministers could be appointed to replace those in the current 35-member&nbsp;cabinet&nbsp;who have signaled they will not seek re-election in 2025 and to relieve others of their double or triple duties in government. 
Freeland said she would seek re-election next year.

Dominic LeBlanc, the public safety minister, has already been sworn in as the new finance minister and took over the reins from Freeland on negotiating with the incoming Trump administration. 
He is expected to give up the public safety portfolio in Friday's shuffle. 
Anita Anand, who is both the Treasury Board president and transport minister, and Ginette Petitpas Taylor, who has been juggling three jobs, are likely to also see their loads lightened. 
On Monday, the housing minister announced he was quitting politics after six others said in recent months they would not be seeking reelection.

Canada's Trudeau to reshuffle cabinet amid political turmoil

Ottawa, Canada
Canada's embattled Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will announce a major cabinet shuffle on Friday, government sources told AFP, days after the surprise resignation of his longtime number two shocked the nation.
It will be a "significant shakeup," one source said. Chrystia Freeland, after nearly a decade at Trudeau's side, announced on Monday she was quitting her dual roles as deputy prime minister and finance minister after disagreeing with her boss over US President-elect Donald Trump's tariff threats.

The move marked the first open dissent against Trudeau from within his cabinet and has emboldened critics.

Canada: Trudeau Faces Frustrated MPs Post Chrystia Freeland's Resignation

Washington, US
United States (US) President-elect Donald Trump continued trolling Canada as on Wednesday (Dec 18), he shared a post on Truth Social and slammed US subsidies to Canada. He even claimed that many in Canada want it to become the 51st state of US.
In the post, the Republican wrote, "No one can answer why we subsidise Canada to the tune of over $100,000,000 a year?" 
"Makes no sense! Many Canadians want Canada to become the 51st State. They would save massively on Taxes and military protection," he added. 
Trump's comment came amid the tensions between the two nations after his announcement to impose 25 per cent tariffs on Canada for failing to address trade and immigration issues.

On Tuesday (Dec 17), French Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland resigned due to a disagreement with Trudeau on handling US tariffs in the upcoming Trump administration. 
Trump took a dig at it as he posted on Truth Social saying, "The Great State of Canada is stunned as the Finance Minister resigns, or was fired, from her position by Governor Justin Trudeau." 
"Her behaviour was toxic, and not at all conducive to making deals which are good for the very unhappy citizens of Canada. She will not be missed!!!" the Republican further added. 
There are further reports that Trump has suggested that if tariffs on Canada would kill its economy, then Canada should become the 51st state of the US. 
<h2>'Governor of the Great State'</h2>
Earlier on Tuesday (Dec 10), Trump mocked Justin Trudeau, dubbing him the "Governor of the Great State of Canada."

Sharing a post on his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump said, "It was a pleasure to have dinner the other night with Governor Justin Trudeau of the Great State of Canada."
"I look forward to seeing the Governor again soon so that we may continue our in-depth talks on Tariffs and Trade, the results of which will be truly spectacular for all!," he added.

Canada: Justin Trudeau Faces Frustrated MPs Post Chrystia Freeland's Resignation

Ottawa, Canada
Justin Trudeau, the embattled Canadian Prime Minister on Tuesday (Dec 17) tried to downplay the most serious challenge to his leadership yet — the resignation of his deputy PM as a 'family' spat.
As per Bloomberg, speaking at the Liberal Party's end-of-the-year, Trudeau chalked up the exit of his long-time trusted Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland as "fights around the holidays".
This comes as, in the last few days, over a dozen members of Trudeau's caucus have publicly said that he cannot carry on as the party leader.

Ontario Liberal MP calls for change in leadership after Canada Deputy PM's resignation</a>
<h2>What did Trudeau say?</h2>
"Like most families, sometimes we have fights around the holidays," Trudeau told the Liberal Party's 153 lawmakers and their staffers in Ottawa.
"But of course, like most families, we find our way through it. You know, I love this country, I deeply love this party, I love you guys, and love is what families are all about," he added in a glancing reference to Freeland's resignation.
This comes after Freeland resigned while slamming Trudeau's "costly political gimmicks" in a scathing letter.
<h2>Freeland's resignation</h2>
Freeland, on Monday (Dec 16), announced that she is resigning from Trudeau's cabinet. Freeland said that on Friday, the Canadian PM told her that he was removing her as the nation's finance minister and assigning her a different role and that she felt she had no option but to resign.
Media reports suggest that Trudeau was planning to replace her Brookfield Asset Management Chair, Mark Carney. Following her resignation, Trudeau named Dominic LeBlanc as the finance minister.

<h2>Why Freeland's resignation is Trudeau's biggest challenge yet?</h2>
Freeland by far is the highest-ranking Liberal to publicly criticise Trudeau. However, she's far from being the only Liberal MP to slam him. Especially after Freeland's resignation, the number of Liberal Party MPs calling for his resignation has increased.
As per a CBC News tally, after Freeland's resignation, over 10 members of Trudeau's caucus have called for him to step down. The MPs as per the report are Wayne Long, René Arseneault, Francis Drouin, Helena Jaczek, Ken McDonald, Ken Hardie, Sean Casey, Chad Collins, Anthony Housefather, Patrick Weiler, Serge Cormier, Yvan Baker and Alexandra Mendès.

Canada: Trudeau On The Edge As Freeland Resigns In Defiance

Canada: Justin Trudeau Faces Resignation Calls From Own MPs

A Russian woman earlier accused of stowing away on a flight from New York to Paris was arrested again while on her way to Canada, authorities confirmed on Monday (Dec 16). Following her Paris flight fiasco, she was held in Philadelphia and was ordered not to leave the area except for court proceedings or meetings with her lawyers. However, she allegedly cut off her GPS-monitoring ankle device and boarded a bus to Canada.

The New York Times reported that the Federal Bureau of Investigation in Buffalo had arrested her again. The woman, named Svetlana Dali, is now scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday (Dec 17).

Last month, Dali grabbed global headlines after managing to enter a Delta fight without a boarding pass. She was spotted at John F Kennedy International Airport on November 26. Later, it was revealed that she entered the aircraft “through a special lane for airline employees masked by a large Air Europa flight crew."

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) said in a statement, “This is the only reported case of unauthorized access when over 18 million passengers were screened at TSA security checkpoints during the busiest Thanksgiving travel season ever. No one has ever fully breached the TSA security screening process."

According to a criminal complaint filed in that case, Delta employees failed to stop the woman as they were busy “helping ticketed passengers board”.

As the plane took off, Delta employees quickly realised Dali was on the plane. The plane crew notified French law enforcement and the woman was arrested at Charles de Gaulle Airport on November 27. She was flown back to New York on December 4 and was taken into custody.

Buffalo, US A Russian woman earlier accused of stowing away on a flight from New York to Paris was arrested again while on her way to Canada, authorities confirmed on Monday (Dec 16). Following her Paris flight fiasco, she was held in Philadelphia and was ordered not to leave the area except for court proceedings or meetings with her lawyers. However, she allegedly cut off her GPS-monitoring ankle device and boarded a bus to Canada. The New York Times reported that the Federal Bureau of Investigation in Buffalo had arrested her again. The woman, named Svetlana Dali, is now scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday (Dec 17). Last month, Dali grabbed global headlines after managing to enter a Delta fight without a boarding pass. She was spotted at John F Kennedy International Airport on November 26. Later, it was revealed that she entered the aircraft “through a special lane for airline employees masked by a large Air Europa flight crew." The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) said in a statement, “This is the only reported case of unauthorized access when over 18 million passengers were screened at TSA security checkpoints during the busiest Thanksgiving travel season ever. No one has ever fully breached the TSA security screening process."

As the plane took off, Delta employees quickly realised Dali was on the plane. The plane crew notified French law enforcement and the woman was arrested at Charles de Gaulle Airport on November 27. She was flown back to New York on December 4 and was taken into custody.
